Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001] (Technical field) The present invention describes a magnetic interaction system between multiple rotating bodies for the generation and storage of kinetic energy.

[0002] (Background technology) Currently, mechanisms that allow energy storage using flywheels are known as state of the art.

[0003] This type of mechanism promotes the conservation of angular momentum in order to store rotational energy, a form of kinetic energy that is proportional to the moment of inertia times the angular velocity squared, and is calculated mathematically as follows: Rotational kinetic energy = 0.5 × I × ω 2 where I=inertia and ω=angular velocity.

[0004] A typical energy storage system using a flywheel comprises a circular-based flywheel supported by bearings via a rotating shaft that is mechanically coupled to a mechanical drive system (motor / generator). When the mechanical drive system is activated, the flywheel begins to rotate on the shaft and in its rotation starts storing energy in the form of kinetic energy, and then converts this rotational kinetic energy into electrical energy. However, to facilitate this conversion, currently considered systems must rely on a motor / generator that is mechanically adapted to the shaft by the flywheel.

[0005] The present invention aims to describe an innovation in said state of the art approach that provides an effective and highly efficient system through magnetic interaction between multiple rotating bodies for the generation and storage of rotational kinetic energy.

[0006] According to the present invention, it is possible to generate and store rotational kinetic energy in a set of secondary rotors arranged around a primary rotor in an efficient and optimized manner, without the need for multiple motors coupled to the shafts of multiple secondary rotors or any external equipment.

[0007] (Summary) The present invention describes a magnetic interaction system between multiple rotating bodies for the generation and storage of kinetic energy, characterized in that it comprises a primary rotating body having a first set of magnets and mechanically adapted to at least one platform by a rotation axis, and at least three secondary rotating bodies mechanically adapted to the at least one platform by independent rotation axes equidistant from the rotation axis of the primary rotating body, each of the at least three secondary rotating bodies having at least two overlapping platforms on the same rotation axis, and a second set of magnets adapted to the at least two overlapping platforms.

[0008] In a possible embodiment of the invention, each of said at least three secondary rotors comprises one intermediate platform between said at least two overlapping platforms.

[0009] In another possible embodiment of the invention, said at least two overlapping platforms and said intermediate platform are ring-shaped.

[0010] In another possible embodiment of the invention, the second set of magnets fitted to the at least two overlapping platforms includes gaps.

[0011] In another possible embodiment of the invention, the gap between the second set of magnets is occupied by the intermediate platform.

[0012] In another possible embodiment of the invention, the primary rotor comprises a closed circular cover dimensionally adapted to incorporate the first set of magnets therein, the circular cover exhibiting constructive properties that do not interfere with the magnetic fields of the first set of magnets and the second set of magnets and promoting an improvement of the aerodynamic performance of the primary rotor.

[0013] In another possible embodiment of the invention, the first set of magnets is fitted to the primary rotor by a platform located centrally on the axis of rotation.

[0014] In another possible embodiment of the invention, the first set of magnets comprises a crossed arrangement.

[0015] In another possible embodiment of the invention, the first magnet set comprises two primary magnets A and B arranged on the surface of the platform centrally located on the axis of rotation, magnetically joined on its narrower sides, and secondary magnets A and B mounted laterally and oppositely in a cross shape, coinciding with the junction of the two primary magnets A and B with the axis of rotation.

[0016] In another possible embodiment of the invention, said at least two overlapping platforms comprise one lower support platform and one upper support platform.

[0017] In another possible embodiment of the invention, the second set of magnets includes a lower set of magnets mounted on the edges of the lower support platform and an upper set of magnets mounted on the edges of the upper support platform, the upper set of magnets being separated from the lower set of magnets by the upper support platform.

[0018] In another possible embodiment of the invention, the platform of the primary rotor, located in the center of the rotation axis, is aligned with the height of the intermediate platform of the secondary rotor, relative to the at least one platform to which the primary rotor and the secondary rotor are mechanically adapted.

[0019] In another possible embodiment of the invention, the primary rotor and the at least three secondary rotors are cylindrical in shape and include magnetic rotor bearings mechanically adapted to the at least one platform to facilitate suspension in a sealed vacuum environment.

[0020] In another possible embodiment of the invention, the primary rotor and the at least three secondary rotors comprise a cylindrical shape in which the first set of magnets and the second set of magnets are mounted.

[0021] In another possible embodiment of the invention, the system comprises at least one set of primary rotors suspended in an overlapping manner and at least one set of secondary rotors suspended in an overlapping manner, mechanically adapted to at least one platform to optimize space and energy production performance.

[0022] In another possible embodiment of the present invention, each of the at least three secondary rotating bodies has a diameter larger than a diameter of the primary rotating body, and each of the at least three secondary rotating bodies has an angular velocity larger than an angular velocity of the primary rotating body.

[0023] (Brief explanation) The present invention relates to a magnetic interaction system between multiple rotating bodies for the generation and storage of kinetic energy.

[0024] The system disclosed herein aims to optimize the production and storage of kinetic energy by magnetic interaction between a primary central rotor and at least one secondary peripheral rotor arranged around the primary rotor. However, the system described below demonstrates higher efficiency when implemented with a primary central rotor and three or four secondary rotors arranged around said primary central rotor. Both the primary rotor and the multiple secondary rotors have a circular shape, the multiple secondary rotors ideally have a ring shape in addition to the circular shape, and the diameter and mass of the primary rotor are different from those of the multiple secondary rotors, which are dimensionally adapted for the purposes of the present invention. Both the primary rotor and the multiple secondary rotors resort to the use of at least one support platform, mounted on a technically adapted bearing system and ensuring their proper positioning on the rotating shaft to which they are mechanically connected, in order to minimize the effects caused by friction between the multiple rotating parts.

[0025] The motion of the multiple secondary rotors, which facilitate the generation and storage of rotational kinetic energy, is induced / expressed by the magnetic interaction between them and the primary rotor, and the rotational motion of the primary rotor is guaranteed by the presence of a mechanical system that ensures its correct operation. When the primary rotor is put into rotational motion, actuated by said mechanical system, for example an electric motor or a power train mechanically adapted to its rotating shaft, it immediately induces / expresses the rotational motion of multiple secondary rotors attached around it, through the interaction of magnetic fields between said multiple rotors.

[0026] Complete and precise magnetic interaction between the primary rotor and multiple secondary rotors, enabling complete and highly efficient operation of the system, is achieved through a set of properly sized and positioned magnets in each of said rotors.

[0027] In order to obtain full magnetic interaction between the multiple magnets of the primary rotor and the multiple magnets of the secondary rotor, triggering of rotational motion in the primary rotor should be done slowly and gradually to transfer continuous motion and progressive speed to the multiple secondary rotors via the existing magnetic interaction between the multiple rotors.

[0028] As the rotation speed of the primary rotor increases, for example by gradually increasing the voltage applied to an electric motor mechanically adapted to the primary rotor shaft, the increase in the rotation speed of the secondary rotors is proportionally induced through the correct magnetic interaction between the rotors. The increase in the rotation speed of the primary rotor and the induction in the secondary rotors are performed continuously and gradually until the set of rotors reaches the desired rotation speed. The magnetic interaction between the rotors (primary and secondary) of the system is performed by magnetic induction / interaction, not by magnetic coupling. In fact, in the developed prototype model, it takes about 120 seconds from a stationary starting point to reach the intended rotation speed of both the primary rotor and the secondary rotors. Once the intended rotation speed is reached by the perfect magnetic interaction between the multiple rotating parts in the system, in the primary rotor and in the secondary rotors, the rotation speed of the set remains constant and uninterrupted as long as a constant speed is guaranteed in the primary rotor. Thus, thanks to this magnetic interaction between the multiple rotors, it is possible to generate and store rotational kinetic energy in the set of secondary rotors in an optimized manner, without the need for any type of motor or any external equipment coupled to the shafts of the secondary rotors, thus converting the potential energy of the set of secondary rotors into rotational kinetic energy.

[0029] It should be noted that there is no physical connection or mechanical transmission / interaction for the transmission of rotational motion between the primary rotor and any of the multiple secondary rotors. The transmission of rotational motion between the primary rotor and the multiple secondary rotors of the system is ensured only by the perfect magnetic ratio / interaction between the rotors that are part of the system.

[0030] The present magnetic interaction system between multiple rotors for kinetic energy generation and storage allows for enhanced kinetic energy generation and storage with the use of a single primary rotor, said system promotes rotational kinetic energy in a set of secondary rotors that converts potential energy in a set of secondary rotors into rotational kinetic energy by the induction / interaction of magnetic forces present in the multiple rotors, and efficiently stores said energy. The developed structural architecture also allows for the minimization of mechanical origin losses, since the use of mechanical origins is reduced to a minimum for all existing moving parts.

[0044] (Description of the embodiment) Some embodiments will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings, but these embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the present application.

[0045] This application describes a magnetic interaction system between multiple rotating bodies for the generation and storage of rotational kinetic energy.

[0046] One of the preferred embodiments proposed for the system (100) comprises the use of a support platform (30) on which the support structure of the primary rotor (10) rotating on its axis (14, 26) and the support structures of the multiple secondary rotors (20) are arranged. The platform (30) comprises a bearing (51) mechanically adapted to ensure the support of the rotation shaft (14) of the primary rotor (10) of the system (100). This rotation shaft (14) of the primary rotor (10) is connected to a mechanical propeller (50), which may be one of an electric motor, a generator motor, a motor-propeller or any other mechanism, mechanically adapted and provided to ensure the supply of rotational motion to said axis (14) of the primary rotor (10).

[0047] The primary rotor (10) is constituted by a platform (16), which in one preferred embodiment is constituted by a disk shape, adapted to rotate on its axis (14) and has the property of not affecting the magnetic field of the magnets based thereon. On the upper surface of the disk (16) a set of first magnets (11, 12, 13, 15) is attached. The arrangement of the set of parallelepiped shaped magnets (11, 12, 13, 15) is made in a cross shape in one preferred embodiment. As mentioned above, both the primary magnets A and B (11, 15) and the secondary magnets B (12, 13) of the primary rotor (10) have a parallelepiped shape and have a longitudinal magnetic alignment with respect to the long axis of the parallelepiped, as shown in FIG. 9. Thus, to obtain the aforementioned cross shape, both primary magnets A and B (11, 15) of the primary rotor (10) are arranged on their narrow sides to ensure magnetic separation between the north and south poles perpendicular to the rotation plane of the disk (16) of the primary rotor (10) and also to ensure the combination between the north-south and south-north poles between the primary magnets A and B (11, 15). The central junction of the primary magnets A and B (11, 15) is centrally located to coincide with the rotation axis (14) of the primary rotor (10).

[0048] To obtain the cross shape, the mounting of the remaining magnets on the disk (16) of the primary rotor (10) is achieved by connecting the longitudinal axis of the secondary magnets A and B (12, 13) to the longitudinal center of the joint of the two primary magnets A and B (11, 15). Thus, the longitudinal face of the north pole of the secondary magnet A (12) is magnetically joined to the longitudinal face of the south pole of the primary magnet A (11), and the longitudinal face of the south pole of the secondary magnet A (12) is magnetically joined to the longitudinal face of the north pole of the primary magnet B (15).

[0049] The same applies to the secondary magnet B (13) of the primary rotor (10), with the longitudinal face of the N pole of the secondary magnet B (13) magnetically joined to the longitudinal face of the S pole of the primary magnet B (15), and the longitudinal face of the S pole of the secondary magnet B (13) magnetically joined to the longitudinal face of the N pole of the primary magnet A (11).

[0050] According to one of the proposed embodiments shown in Figures 1 to 4, further with respect to the platform (30) and around the primary rotor (10), three secondary rotors (20) are mounted equidistant from the axis of rotation (14) of the primary rotor (10), and their axes of rotation (26) have an equidistant arrangement from the axis of rotation (14) of the primary rotor (10), in addition to being equidistant from the axis of rotation (14) of the primary rotor (10).

[0051] Here, each of the three secondary rotors (20) is coupled to the platform (30) by a bearing (60) mechanically adapted to the axis of rotation (26) of the secondary rotor (20) to ensure its correct mounting on the platform (30). To ensure greater stability to the axis of rotation (26) of the secondary rotor (20), and for the rotational speeds involved, it may be coupled by additional bearings (60) to two or more platforms (30) arranged adjacently and supported by additional columns (40). Both the bearings of the axis of rotation of the primary rotor (51) and the bearings of the axis of rotation of the secondary rotor (60) may further use support boxes in one preferred embodiment to minimize vibrations from the high rotational speeds reached, thus minimizing the creation of gaps between the bearings and the support base of the axis, i.e. the platform (30).

[0052] Each of the three secondary rotors (20) is made up of three platforms (21, 22, 23) or preferably ring-shaped disks, the lower support disk (21) being circular, the middle disk (22) being circular and the upper support disk (23) being circular, said disks (21, 22, 23) being mechanically fitted on top of the central axis of rotation (26) of the secondary rotor (20) which is mechanically fitted to said bearings (60). Each of these disks (21, 22, 23) constituting the secondary rotor (20) has a ring shape and is centrally mounted around each of said axes of rotation (26). The disks must be made of non-magnetic material or materials that do not interfere with the magnetic field generated between the rotors (10, 20) of the system (100), such as brass and wood. Both the lower support and upper support platforms (21, 23) include mountings of a set of magnets (24, 25) spaced equidistant radially around the circumference of a ring shape in a continuous array of multiple N / S poles.

[0053] The magnets (24, 25) mounted on the surface of the support platform (21, 23) in one of the preferred embodiments have a cylindrical shape and a magnetic arrangement with an axial shape relative to its axis, one of the faces being a north pole (N) and the opposite face being a south pole (S). Figure 10 shows one of the preferred embodiments of the present invention and confirms the above-listed explanations, where the polar arrangement of the upper magnet (25) and the lower magnet (24) is made consecutively with north / south (N / S) poles, whereby the south (S) pole of the lower magnet (24) is located on the upper surface of the lower support disk of the secondary rotor (21) and has a north (N) pole in contact with the lower surface of the upper support disk (23). The upper magnet (25) in turn has a south pole (S) in contact with the upper surface of the upper support disk (23). Although there is a magnetic attraction between the lower magnet (24) and the upper magnet (25), the upper support base (23) ensures a physical separation between said magnets (24, 25), resulting in avoidance of direct contact between the lower magnet (24) and the upper magnet (25) due to the assembly and arrangement of polarities. The substantial ring shape of the support disks (21, 22, 23) promotes a greater concentration of the mass of the secondary rotor body (20) on its outer edge, thus substantially increasing the inertia of the set of secondary rotors (20). The intermediate disk (22) occupies the gap between each of the lower magnets (24) mounted equidistantly on the edge of the lower support disk (21), the function of which is to increase the mass of the secondary rotor (20). In the specific case of implementing a system using three secondary rotors (20), each lower support disk (21) and each upper support disk (23) includes 14 magnets applied on its surface, more specifically, the lower support disk (21) has 14 lower magnets (24) attached on its ring edge and the upper support disk (23) has 14 upper magnets (25) attached on its ring edge. Each secondary rotor (20) therefore includes the use of 28 neodymium magnets in one of the proposed embodiments of the invention.The use of multiple magnets of this type, and the way in which they are arranged radially along a ring forming multiple secondary rotors (20), allows the rotational motion of the primary rotor (10), mechanically imparted by the mechanical propeller (50), to affect the operation of the secondary rotors (20), causing them to move in a constant, uninterrupted, synchronized manner, albeit in opposite rotational directions, due to the interaction and interlocking of the magnetic forces present in the rotors (10, 20).

[0054] The arrangement and overlapping of the magnets (24, 25) on the secondary rotor (20), combined with the specific arrangement of the four magnets (11, 12, 13, 15) on the cross-shaped primary rotor (10), allows for precise, uniform and effective interaction of multiple magnetic fields, resulting in perfect synchronization between the primary rotor (10) and the multiple secondary rotors (20).

[0055] In order to minimize the effect of air friction incident on the primary magnets of parallelepiped shape (11, 12, 13, 15), the primary magnets (11, 15) are mounted on the narrower face of the disk (16) of the primary rotor (10) during its rotational movement about the axis (14) by the action of the mechanical propeller (50), and a closed circular cover dimensionally adapted to the dimensions of the primary rotor (10) is used to incorporate the primary magnets (11, 12, 13, 15) inside, so as not to interfere with the magnetic field generated in the system (100). In one preferred embodiment of the invention, the primary rotor disk (16) is aligned in height with the secondary rotor intermediate disk (22) with respect to the platform (30), which alignment makes it possible to obtain a better rotation performance induced by the primary rotor (10) on the multiple secondary rotors (20). It should be noted that ferrite magnets will not work properly in the system 100, which is why in one preferred embodiment of the system 100, neodymium magnets are used, which are high magnetic field along with small dimensions and long service life. In the near future, alternatively, 100% synthetic neodymium magnets, electromagnets, magnetic superconductors, or nanomagnets may be used, which contain the same magnetic properties in a similar or better way than the neodymium magnets suggested herein.

[0056] In both the embodiment proposed in Figures 1-4 and in Figures 5-8, the arrangement and spacing of the secondary rotors (20) with respect to their axis of rotation (26) ensures that the magnetic forces emanating from the magnets (24, 25) attached to the edges of their disks (21, 22, 23) do not affect the pair. That is, in the arrangement of the secondary rotors (20) proposed in both embodiments, the rotational motion of an independent secondary rotor (20) does not affect the rotational motion of an adjacent secondary rotor (20). Thus, the operation of the multiple secondary rotors (20) functions only under the influence of the rotational motion of the primary rotor (10), ensuring an optimization of the energy losses in the system.

[0057] In one non-limiting embodiment proposed for the present invention, as a demonstration of the operation of the proposed system (100) in Figures 1-4, the diameter of the secondary rotor (20) is about 125% larger than the diameter of the primary rotor (10). The same is true for the mass of the secondary rotor (20), which is about 250% larger than the mass of the primary rotor (10). Due to these dimensional ratios, the system (100) maintains a rotational speed that is about 75% higher than the rotational speed of the multiple secondary rotors (20) when the intended rotational speed of the primary rotor (10) is reached. However, due to the dimensions (diameters) of the multiple secondary rotors (20), the circular motion with tangential velocity of the secondary rotors (20) is about 30% larger than the circular motion with tangential velocity of the primary rotor (10) due to its larger diameter. Now, taking these parameters into consideration, it is clear and mathematically determinable that during operation of the system (100) including the primary rotor (10) and the three secondary rotors (20), through the mechanical propellers (50) coupled to its rotating shaft (14) and converted in the set of three secondary rotors (20) into a higher ratio, about 2200% or more, than the rotational kinetic energy generated by the primary rotor (10), each secondary rotor (20) generates a rotational kinetic energy that is about 700% greater than the kinetic energy generated by the primary rotor (10). These percentage values ​​innovate the state of the art and are achieved by the performance of the system presented herein, capable of converting the potential energy present in the secondary rotors into rotational kinetic energy. This transformation is caused by several factors, including the use of highly efficient bearings that allow for very low friction of the shafts (14, 26) in the primary rotor (10) and secondary rotor (20), respectively, ensured by the structural characteristics and features of the rotor shaft bearings of the primary rotor (51) and the rotor shaft bearings of the multiple secondary rotors (60).

[0058] Other key factors of the primary rotor (10) include a lower inertia relative to the secondary rotors (20), in addition to physical aspects such as a smaller diameter and a smaller mass, which is related to the arrangement and distribution of most of its mass, which is located at the center of its axis (14). In this way, the energy requirements for driving the rotational motion of the set formed by the primary rotors (10) are reduced. Furthermore, the base (16) of the primary rotor (10) has a disk shape that reduces its inertia. On the other hand, the secondary rotors (20) have a higher inertia, not only due to physical aspects such as a larger diameter and a larger mass, but also because the distribution of most of its mass is located on the edge of its ring shape, thus increasing the inertia, which is also augmented by the arrangement of the lower and upper magnets (24, 25) around the edge of the ring. However, the impact of the amount of energy required to cause the multiple secondary rotors (20) to rotate is minimized by the aforementioned interaction and mutual interlocking of the magnetic forces between the magnets (11, 12, 13, 15) of the primary rotor (10) and the magnets (24, 25) of the multiple secondary rotors (20). Due to this magnetic interlocking, the energy required to generate rotational motion in the multiple secondary rotors is applied point-to-point to each magnet that makes up the multiple secondary rotors. This allows for very low energy consumption and high efficiency through precise magnetic interaction between the primary and secondary rotors.

[0059] Even if the diameter and mass of multiple secondary rotating bodies (20) are equal to the diameter and mass of the primary inductor rotating body (10), the rotational kinetic energy generated by a set of secondary rotating bodies (20) is greater than the rotational kinetic energy of the primary rotating body (10).

[0060] The above-described system (100) allows for the conversion of potential energy present within the system (100) into rotational kinetic energy. This generation of rotational kinetic energy can be stored or used directly. The system (100) allows for the generation and storage of kinetic energy in the multiple secondary rotors (20) that is greater than the rotational kinetic energy required to operate the system (100) via the primary rotor (10).

[0061] The primary rotor (10) may eventually incorporate elevators that allow fine adjustment of the height defined by the set of magnets (11, 12, 13, 15) relative to the set of magnets (24, 25) present in each secondary rotor (20). This adjustment may ultimately facilitate an improvement of the performance (100) of the system in terms of increased production capacity, capture and storage of kinetic energy of the system, resulting in higher efficiency.

[0062] Furthermore, in yet another embodiment of the present invention, the system (100) of magnetic interaction between rotors (10, 20) for the generation and storage of kinetic energy includes the use of one additional secondary rotor (20), i.e., a total of four secondary rotors (20), arranged around the primary rotor (10) according to a diamond-shaped configuration in which the centers of rotation of the secondary rotors (20) are equally distributed from the primary rotor (10).

[0063] In this particular case, the proposed configuration shown in Figures 5, 6, 7 and 8, without being limited in size, is slightly different since a total of 16 magnets (24, 25) are stacked on each secondary rotor (20), and only 8 pairs of magnets (24, 25) are considered for each disk (21, 23) of each secondary rotor (20). In this configuration, the secondary rotors (20) have a diameter that is about 40% larger than that of the primary rotor (10), and their mass is about 112% larger than that of the primary rotor (10). With these dimensional ratios, the rotational speed induced in the secondary rotors (20) is the same rotational speed as the primary rotor (10) through the magnetic interaction in the system (100), i.e. the ratio of rotational speed levels is 1:1. However, due to the dimensions (diameters) of the multiple secondary rotating bodies (20), the circular motion with tangential velocity of the multiple secondary rotating bodies (20) is approximately 40% greater than the circular motion with tangential velocity of the primary rotating body (10).

[0064] Now, taking these parameters into consideration, it is clear and can be mathematically determined that during operation of the system (100) consisting of the primary rotating body (10) and four secondary rotating bodies (20) proposed in this embodiment, in the set of four secondary rotating bodies (20), a rotational kinetic energy is generated in each of the secondary rotating bodies (20) that is converted to a ratio of 2100% greater than the rotational kinetic energy generated by the primary rotating body (10) and is approximately 470% greater than the rotational kinetic energy generated by the primary rotating body (10).

[0065] In both proposed approaches for the present system (100) using three or four secondary rotors (20), it is meant that the system's ability to convert potential energy (100) into rotational kinetic energy is always substantially greater than the rotational kinetic energy provided to the system (100) via the primary rotor (10). In both proposed embodiments of the system (100), it is possible to verify and prove that there are no physical and / or mechanical connections between the primary rotor (10) and the multiple secondary rotors (20) or between the multiple secondary rotors (20) for the transfer of rotational kinetic energy.

[0066] The generation of kinetic energy in the multiple secondary rotors (20) is solely and exclusively achieved by the existing magnetic ratios and materials used in the developed system (100) that allow the multiple secondary rotors (20) to constantly and continuously maintain a tangential velocity higher than that of the primary rotor (10) even though the multiple secondary rotors (20) have a diameter and mass larger than the diameter and mass of the primary rotor (10).

[0067] To further optimize these results, it is possible to incorporate this system (100) using cylinders for the rotors (10, 20) in a suspended and vacuum sealed configuration, and the bearings (51, 60) used may be magnetic to minimize friction losses.

[0068] The present description is of course in no way limited to the embodiments presented herein, and the skilled person can offer many possibilities to modify it without departing from the general concept defined in the claims. The preferred embodiments described above can obviously be combined with each other. The following claims further define preferred embodiments. [Brief description of the drawings]
