The invention proposes a Gravitational and Magnetic Force to Electrical Energy Conversion
System (GMECS), a solution based on the simple
pendulum principle and developed from the successful foundation of the "Large-sized
clock, low
power consumption" invention (internationally published by WIPO in 2022). GMECS overcomes the inherent challenges of using a simple
pendulum for large-scale
electricity production by optimally and effectively combining the interaction of the Earth's
gravitational field with the powerful
magnetic field of
Neodymium N52 rare-earth magnets and the controlled variable
magnetic field of an
electromagnet to generate significant and continuous torque. In this
system, the
pendulum's oscillation energy, maintained and amplified by a small amount of electrical energy from an
external source (e.g.,
solar power), is converted into
mechanical energy through a complex gearbox
system comprising a one-way gearbox and a reversing gearbox. This
mechanical energy is then transmitted to a speed-increasing gearbox to augment rotational speed, thereby rotating the rotor of a rare-earth
magnet generator, producing useful electrical energy. Experiments have demonstrated the
system's superior capability to generate 22W of output power with only 8.7W of input power, showing a positive and significant energy
amplification factor (COP > 2.5). This additional energy is attributed to the efficient harnessing from the
relative motion of the hundreds-of-
kilogram pendulum within the Earth's
gravitational field and the interaction between the
magnetic field of rare-earth magnets and the controlled variable magnetic field of the
electromagnet, via the pendulum's
resonance mechanism. This successfully addresses technical challenges, including overcoming the
inertia of the speed-increasing gearbox, the generator, and the Lenz's Law effect. The GMECS invention has the potential for scalable
electricity production, offering significant benefits in energy savings, providing independent
distributed power, being
environmentally friendly, and having broad applicability in both industrial and agricultural sectors, especially in areas difficult to access traditional energy sources or requiring
sustainable energy solutions.
