Patent attributes
A magnetic propulsion drive system provides power output by including the use of permanent magnets repelled by electromagnets on adjacent rotor assemblies. In some embodiments, the electromagnets may be inactive until synchronized to face an opposing permanent magnet of the same polarity. The electromagnet may be energized thus causing a repellant force with the permanent magnet causing radial momentum in the rotor assembly to rotate a larger drive module of rotor assemblies. Embodiments may include two or more drive modules arranged to position opposing magnets of the same type so that each drive modules is driven producing and output torque through a drive shaft. Some embodiments include a stator element which may be a cage surrounding the rotor assemblies. Interaction of the magnets with the stator simultaneously provides electric field generation and current while producing mechanical drive output.
