Problems solved by technology

While the above approach can provide adequate thrust if the unit is properly sized for the application, it is less efficient than a stand-alone propulsion system
Also a second disadvantage is that the above propulsion method is inherently unstable and requires a biasing device to keep the vehicle stable

Abstract

The present invention comprises a novel propulsion method and apparatus for personal air vehicles generally consisting of a gyroscopic movable assembly containing a gyroscope flywheel that produces thrust. In a preferred embodiment, the gyroscope is hubless. The gyroscope flywheel integrates permanent magnets along its perimeter ring while spokes with an airfoil cross-section and an positive incidence angle create airflow when rotated. The spokes couple the gyroscope's perimeter ring with a smaller central hubless ring. Proximate to the gyroscope's flywheel is an electromagnet fixed assembly that produces phasing electromagnetic fields that rotate the gyroscopic movable assembly. The invention comprises a self-contained apparatus with no external motor because the assembly is a motor witha self- stabilizing gyroscope that produces directional airflow that can be used to propel air, land and sea vehicles.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 62 / 649,097, filed March 28, 2018, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to methods of propulsion for generating thrust for propelling an aircraft. More specifically, the present invention relates to an independent propulsion system consisting of electric (preferably hubless) gyroscopes that generate thrust while maintaining balance and stability. Background technique [0004] Electric aircraft propulsion systems generate thrust by connecting an electric motor directly to an auxiliary device consisting of a propeller / rotor, or through a drive shaft and / or gearbox to the motor output shaft. While the above approach can provide adequate thrust if the device is properly sized for the application, it is less efficient than a stand-alone propulsion s...
