Embodiment 1
[0066] Embodiment 1. A rotary machine 10 comprising:
[0067] stator 18 defining a circumference 148;
[0068] a first plurality of magnet arrays 67A, 67B, 68A, 68B consisting of a first plurality of discrete magnets 160, 162 arranged in a first magnetic pattern around said circumference 148 of said stator 18;
[0069] rotor 20 rotatable about an axis of rotation and defining a body 36 defining a first passage 32; and
[0070] a first piston 26 comprising a plurality of first magnetic elements 150, 152, said first piston 26 being actuated within said first channel 32 of said rotor 20, wherein said plurality of first discrete magnets 160, 162 arranged in the first magnetic pattern and positioned such that the plurality of first discrete magnets 160, 162 interact with the first magnetic element of the first piston 26 when the rotor 20 rotates about the axis of rotation. 150 , 152 interact to generate a first magnetic force representing a first amount of force required to actua...
Embodiment 2
[0071] Embodiment 2. The rotary machine 10 of embodiment 1 comprising a second piston 30 comprising a plurality of second magnetic elements 150, 152, the second piston 26 being driven by the rotor 20 is actuated within the second channel 34 defined by the body 36 , wherein the stator 18 includes a plurality of second magnet arrays 65A, 65B, 66A, 66B consisting of a plurality of second discrete magnets 164 , 166 .
Embodiment 3
[0072] Embodiment 3. The rotating machine 10 of embodiment 2, wherein the plurality of second discrete magnets 164, 166 are positioned such that when the rotor rotates about the axis of rotation, the plurality of second discrete magnets are in contact with The second magnetic elements 150 , 152 of the second piston 30 interact to generate a second magnetic force representing actuation of the second piston in the second channel 34 of the rotor 20 30 the second amount of force required.
