[0012] Traditionally, there are fields where explosives have been used (taking advantage of the explosive action of gunpowder) to target objects, but they have also been used for destructive operations. For example, missiles were used in air defense systems (anti-aircraft interceptor systems). Dynamite was also used to excavate rock for tunnel construction for transportation infrastructure such as railways and roads. These methods required large amounts of missiles or dynamite to be effective, and in order to reduce costs, a more efficient method that could achieve the same results was sought. [Means for solving the problem]
[0013] Air defense systems and rock excavation work have traditionally used numerous missiles and dynamite (large amounts of explosives), but we propose a method that uses electric current as an alternative to explosives, which can achieve the same results and also reduce costs. When a high-voltage, large-capacity current hits an object, a large amount of energy (shock wave) is applied, causing penetration and damage to even hard materials, resulting in a work effect equivalent to that achieved when gunpowder is used (the explosive force of gunpowder). To use this current in air defense systems or rock excavation work, it is necessary to control the direction of the discharged current in the atmosphere, water, etc., but this is difficult because there is no current conductor such as a cable (electric wire). A method for controlling the flow of this current without a conductor is to shine a laser beam, which is used in laser processing machines, at the target object and discharge a current at the point where it overlaps with the laser beam.This laser beam then functions as a conductor for the current, and the discharged current moves in tandem with the laser beam. The reason this phenomenon occurs is that laser beams (light energy) and electric currents (electrical energy) each have a positive charge (+ pole) and a negative charge (- pole), which function in the same way as the north and south poles of a magnet. The north and south poles of a magnet attract each other when they are opposite poles (north and south poles), and repel each other when they are the same poles (north and north poles, south and south poles). The positive (+) and negative (-) poles of light energy (light particles) and electrical energy (electrons) also act in a similar manner to the magnetic force of a magnet, resulting in an attractive force between the laser beam and the electric current, causing a phenomenon in which they proceed in tandem. The laser beam directed at the target acts as a conductor (pathway) for the discharged current, and the current travels in the direction of the target while linking with the laser beam. A shock of electric current is applied to an object. (This shock of electric current is the same phenomenon as a lightning strike.) This method allows the electric current to have the same amount of energy (work) as gunpowder, making it possible to replace missiles and dynamite in air defense systems and rock excavation work. Also, like the laser light (laser beam) used in laser processing machines, there are other lasers that have a positive charge (+ pole) and a load (- pole), and the same action as magnetic force (a repulsive action between like poles, an attractive action between opposite poles) acts between the positive charge (+ pole) and load (- pole) of the electric current discharged in the atmosphere or underwater, and they progress in conjunction with the electric current, and perform the function of guiding the discharge current (they do not diffuse and are highly directional, so they can be guided to the target towards which the discharge current is headed). (1) Searchlight A searchlight is a collection of highly directional light particles that are created by concentrating high-intensity visible light using mirrors or lenses. (2) High-frequency (short wavelength), longitudinal, and rotational radio waves High frequency (short wavelength), longitudinal wave, and rotational wave radio waves are wave phenomena caused by a collection of electrons that tend to travel in a straight line. Traditionally, radio waves have been thought to be a phenomenon of transverse waves only, with only differences in wavelength length. However, by changing the structure of radio wave transmitting and receiving devices, it is possible to create radio waves of longitudinal or rotational waves and use them for communication, etc. (3) Cyclotron This technology applies the principle of a cyclotron to emit ions at high speeds. The emitted ions are a collection of electrically charged atoms that tend to travel in a straight line. (4) Conductive liquid Conductive liquids sprayed by water cannons or high-pressure cleaning equipment used in firefighting activities are a collection of substances (liquids) in which free electrons, which tend to move in a straight line, can easily move. (5) Conductive gas Conductive gases sprayed using high-pressure spray devices are a collection of substances (gases) in which free electrons with high directional mobility can move easily. (6) Solid state power generation There are several types of solids that have the ability to generate electricity, including good conductors that have the magnetoelectric effect, pyroelectric effect, photoelectric effect, piezoelectric effect, vibronic effect, and magnetic effect.They are solids that generate electricity themselves without being connected to an external power source and become charged (have electrical energy). When a material with these properties is manufactured into a sphere or other shape and fired (shot) at high speed like a bullet, the charged solid becomes a collection of highly directional electric currents (electricity flows inside and on the surface of the solid). The technology to fire (shoot out) these solid objects with power generation capabilities at high speed includes: There are several types of firearms, including those that use conventional gunpowder, those that use microwaves to heat gunpowder that has been moistened with water, rail guns, coil guns, and thermal guns. In order to improve the speed and distance of a solid body with power generation capabilities (a solid body that induces a discharge current) that is fired (shot out) in this manner, there is a method of firing (shooting out) the solid body without contact with the inner wall of the barrel (without experiencing frictional resistance from the inner wall of the barrel) through the barrel through which the solid body passes when fired (shot out) from inside the device to the outside, and using magnetic force to levitate the solid body within the barrel. It uses the same principle as linear motor car vehicles to levitate, and can be divided into several methods. (1) The entire barrel is made of electromagnet material such as pure iron. (2) A plate of electromagnet material such as pure iron is attached to the inner wall of the gun barrel. (3) The entire barrel is made of a substance (mixture) having a magnetoelectric effect, as described in (6) above, solids with power generation function. (4) The inner wall surface of the gun barrel is coated (applied) with a powder or solution of a substance (mixture) having a magnetoelectric effect, as described in (6) above, which is a solid having a power generating function. The inner wall surface of a gun barrel manufactured and constructed in this manner is connected to an external power source using a cable or the like so that an electric current can flow through it. The solid to be launched (fired out) is manufactured from a material (mixture) having a magnetoelectric effect, as described in (6) Solid having a power generating function above. The magnetoelectric effect is a material property that converts magnetic energy into electrical energy and vice versa, and materials (mixtures) that have this property can be divided into three types. (1) A mixture of ferromagnetic materials such as neodymium magnets, metals that can be used to make electromagnets such as pure iron, and good conductors such as copper and carbon allotropes, processed into powder or solution form and mixed together. (2) A mixture that has undergone a processing process in which ferromagnetic materials such as neodymium magnets and good conductors such as copper and carbon allotropes are processed into powder or solution and mixed together, and then temporarily supplied with electrical energy from an external power source (energized) or magnetic energy from an external magnetic source (placed in a magnetic field). (3) A mixture of metals that can be used to make electromagnets, such as pure iron, and good conductors such as copper and carbon allotropes, processed into powder or liquid form, and then mixed together. This mixture is then temporarily supplied with electrical energy from an external power source (energized) or magnetic energy from an external magnetic source (placed in a magnetic field). The mixture produced by the processes described in (1), (2), and (3) is a substance that has a magnetoelectric effect, which converts magnetic energy into electrical energy and vice versa. However, in this state, thermal energy is generated within the mixture, and this thermal energy is not converted into electrical or magnetic energy within the mixture. This results in a decrease in the magnetic energy (electrical energy) possessed by the substance (mixture), and the induction effect of the discharge current and the levitation effect of solids within the barrel are also reduced. To address this issue, materials with pyroelectric effects (the ability to convert electrical energy into thermal energy and vice versa), such as pyroelectrics, organic compounds, and earth and stone, are processed into powder or solution form and added to a substance (mixture) with magnetoelectric effects. This allows the thermal energy generated within the mixture to be converted into electrical energy, thereby suppressing the reduction in various functions that accompanies a reduction in the magnetic energy (electrical energy) of the mixture. The mixture processed in this way is processed into a powder, mixed so that the constituent substances are evenly distributed, and then mixed with an adhesive and molded, or press-molded and then baked to solidify into a sphere or other shape. Alternatively, the mixture is processed into a solution, mixed, and then coated (applied) onto a solid such as a sphere made of a good conductor (metal, carbon allotrope, etc.). By setting a solid object, such as a spherical object, inside the barrel and adjusting the direction of the current flowing on the inner wall of the barrel, the magnetic force (the repulsive action of like poles) causes the solid object to not come into contact with the inner wall of the barrel (the solid object floats in the air inside the barrel), and the solid object is fired (fired out) without any frictional resistance inside the barrel, which contributes to improving the speed and distance of movement of the solid object that induces the discharge current. (Although it is stated that energy is temporarily supplied from an external power source or an external magnetic source to the magnetoelectric substance (mixture) (2) and (3), this process does not have to be carried out at the material stage, but can be carried out after the solid form, such as a sphere, is completed.) When a charged solid object (containing electrical energy) is shot out at high speed, it has the ability to induce a discharge current, but the shot out solid object itself does not have the ability to provide propulsion or change direction. In contrast, although the solid is still electrically charged (having electrical energy) (it is made of a material that has the ability to generate electricity), rather than being shot out by a device, the solid itself can be given a propulsion power source and a direction-changing function, thereby improving the discharge current induction function. (Solid propulsion power sources include jet engines, electric propellers, and various other types, but the propulsion method is not limited. The control method, such as autonomous control or remote control, is also not limited.) These technologies for inducing electric current discharged in the atmosphere, water, etc. use electricity (electrical energy) as their power source. There is a method that utilizes a physical phenomenon called plasmon resonance to improve the performance (power generation efficiency, generated output, etc.) of this power (electrical energy) power source. Plasmon resonance is a phenomenon in which, when light is irradiated onto a nano-sized particle, light of a specific wavelength contained in the light is not reflected, but is absorbed within the particle and resonates with the electrons within the particle, generating electrons with high energy called hot electrons. By generating this plasmon resonance in the power supply or amplifier of various current induction devices, it is possible to improve the power generation efficiency and generated output of the power (electrical energy) used in the current induction device. This is how the problem is solved.
Claims
1. In the power grid from power plants and the wiring inside electrical appliances, current, which is the flow of electrons, flows through cables (electric wires). When current flows through a cable (a highly conductive solid such as copper), the path of the current can be determined, but when current is discharged into the atmosphere or water, it is difficult to guide the direction of flow (travel). (Arc welding, a type of welding technology, involves discharging an electric current into the air and utilizing the heat energy of the electric current. Because the distance the electric current is discharged into the air is short, it is possible to control the direction of the discharge. However, when the distance of the discharge is long, as in the case of lightning, which is a natural discharge phenomenon, it is difficult to guide the direction of the discharge.) The direction of the current discharged in the atmosphere or water can be controlled by utilizing the physical action of the positively charged (+ pole) and negatively charged (- pole) particles that make up electrons and light particles. Furthermore, by utilizing the energy of electric current (the shock wave when electric current collides with a substance), it is possible to replace fields (tasks) that have traditionally utilized the explosive action of gunpowder, and this brings about benefits such as reduced costs and improved work efficiency. Laser light (laser beam), which is used in laser processing machines that use the energy of laser light to perform processes such as cutting, is irradiated in the direction in which you want to induce an electric current, such as in the atmosphere or underwater. An electric current is discharged at the position where it overlaps with the irradiated laser beam. The current then moves in the same direction as the laser beam, moving in unison. In this way, the reason why a laser beam irradiated in the atmosphere or underwater can induce a flow like electric current flowing through a cable (solid) is that it works on the same principle as the magnetic action of a magnet.Magnets have north and south poles, and when different poles (north and south poles) are attracted to each other, and when the same poles (north and north poles, south and south poles) are attracted to each other, a repulsive force acts on them. A laser beam (light energy) is a collection of positively charged (+ pole) light particles and negatively charged (- pole) light particles, and an electric current (electrical energy) is a collection of positively charged (+ pole) electrons and negatively charged (- pole) electrons. Since these positive (+) and negative (-) poles have properties similar to the north and south poles of a magnet, an effect similar to the force acting between the two poles (magnetic force) occurs. Therefore, between the positive charge (+ pole) and negative charge (- pole) of the laser beam (light particles) and the current (electrons), an attractive action (a state in which the light particles and electrons approach and stick together) and a repulsive action (a state in which the light particles and electrons do not approach and maintain a certain distance) occur, resulting in a state in which the laser beam and the current as a whole progress in tandem. In this way, the physical action of the positive (+) and negative (-) poles that make up a laser beam (light particles) and an electric current (electrons) is utilized to induce the flow of an electric current discharged by a laser beam irradiated into the air or water. A method of giving a laser beam the ability to induce current (conductor) by creating a state in which the laser beam and current are integrated through the magnetic force acting between a positive charge (positive pole) and a negative load (negative pole). In this way, the laser beam and the electric current travel in tandem, allowing the direction of the discharged current to be determined and for it to travel stably over long distances (within the reach of the laser beam, which functions as a conductor). At this time, if multiple laser beams, which function as electric current conductors, are irradiated in the same direction, the link with the electric current is strengthened and the flow (progression) of the electric current becomes stable. Furthermore, when the laser beam and the electric current are moving in tandem, changing the direction of irradiation of the laser beam can simultaneously change the direction of movement of the electric current.
2. A method for inducing electric current using the same method as in claim 1, but using a searchlight used in lighthouses, etc., instead of a laser beam used in a laser processing machine. (A searchlight is a device that uses mirrors and lenses to focus the light emitted from a source that emits high-intensity visible light so that it does not diffuse and can reach far away. The focused light emitted from this device is an aggregate of many light particles, and because it has a high degree of directivity and does not diffuse into the surrounding area but travels straight towards the target, it can function as a conductor to induce electric current discharged in the atmosphere or underwater, just like a laser beam.)
3. A method for inducing current using the same method as that described in claim 1, but using high-frequency radio waves (short wavelength radio waves) or longitudinal wave radio waves used in high-speed wireless communication, etc., instead of laser light (laser beam) used in laser processing machines. (Radio waves, which are a type of wave phenomenon, are generally thought to be transverse waves only, but by changing the structure of a radio wave transmitter and receiver, it is possible to create longitudinal waves as well. High-frequency radio waves (radio waves with short wavelengths) and longitudinal waves have a high degree of directionality, do not scatter around, and travel straight toward the target. Therefore, like a laser beam, they can function as a conductor to induce electric current discharged in the atmosphere or underwater. Furthermore, radio waves are not visible to the naked eye because they are not in the visible light range, but because they are the same wave phenomenon and a collection of electrons, they have a positive charge (+ pole) and a negative charge (- pole) and can travel in conjunction with electric current.
4. Weapons and defense equipment such as air defense systems using the methods according to claims 1, 2 and 3.
5. A propulsion device for flight such as a planetary probe, an artificial satellite, or an aircraft, for surface or underwater use such as a ship, or for land use such as a passenger car, using the method according to claims 1, 2, or 3.
6. A construction machine for excavation, demolition, etc., using the method according to claims 1, 2, and 3.
7. Services and businesses using the defense equipment, propulsion devices, and construction machines set forth in claims 4, 5, and 6.
