Abstract
This invention relates to a perpetual motion machine (weight motor) in which a feedback/perpetuating system is achieved through the interaction of wheels and chain.
Very large 'sun wheels' (either sprockets or gears) and relatively small 'core' wheels rotate about a common fixed-place shaft. Because they must spin at different speeds, either the sun wheels or the small core wheels must be fixed to the core shaft, while the other size spins on bearings.
[If sprockets are used as the large wheels, a multi-strand sprocket chain may be attached to the sun sprocket such that one strand is available to serve as an ersatz gear purchase with which other sprockets may engage.]
Wheels on each of two other shafts-a moon shaft, and a planet shaft, which are parallel to the middle core shaft-interact with the sun wheels and the core wheels, either through direct contact with them or through shared sprocket chain. The planet shaft is fixed (or anchored), while the moon shaft floats, and is able to arc slightly about the core shaft via lever arms that connect through bearings to the core shaft and to the arcing moon shaft.
The work load of some form of utility (of many forms available) sends deliberate resistance via sprocket chain, from a wheel on its 'far comet shaft' to another wheel (called a core comet wheel). The core comet wheel is sited on the core shaft and spins on bearings, so it has no influence on any other wheel but that 'lever' moon wheel with which it has direct contact. That particular lever moon wheel is thus accorded asymmetric forces to its diametrically apposite edges, that determine which way all other wheels rotate, according to the direction of force imposed on the moon shaft via the lever arms.
The planet (earth) wheels serve to complete a feedback loop that prevents the system from achieving stasis, but the motor must continue to spin until force is withdrawn from the lever arms that control the floating (moon) shaft/s. Both planet wheels and moon wheels engage the same sun wheels, but wheels in their related assembly sets must (in most design options) engage different individual core wheels. Thus it is important that all core wheels except the comet wheels move in accord with one another. If the sun wheels are fixed to the core shaft instead of the core wheels being fixed, then core wheels (except the comet wheel/s) must all be joined by a common bushing which itself rides on bearing around the core shaft.
The fact that the resistance is received on only one side of the center comet wheel causes a direction of force, and consequent spin, in only one direction: from the moon lever wheel and associated moon wheels, through the sun wheels to the planet wheels, from the planet wheels to the core wheels, and back to the moon wheels and resistance source.
The inertial force/momentum of the spinning mass extant among all the wheels in the system help to serve in a sense as flywheels that influence (backwards) the spin of the work load source, increasing speeds, and/or useable work, as more force is applied to the lever arms.

Description
Float and Anchor SPECIFICATION
This invention relates to a perpetual motion machine, which, for a variety of reasons has not been achieved in the past. I have found that by using a deliberate focused resistance source sited through bearings on a middle shaft of a motor comprised of many wheels and chains, that force applied by levers can be converted into useable spinning energy.

It also used `mars' sprockets on the planet shaft to engage the sun chain, but earth sprockets and chain to reach the core sprockets.
Further, the planet shaft is within the compass of the sun sprocket, so must be supported by struts from bottom to top of the motor chassis. The lever arms exist but do not show for clarity. Figure 25 is an end view of a halo sprocket ring that is in some ways similar to the embodiment shown in Figure 24. In it the lever arms are present, and extend through a side wall window. Figure 26 is a side profile in section of a moon shaft travelling through a halo ring and carrying two moon sprockets, Figure 27 is a side profile in section of a moon shaft and its end moon sprocket engaging the free strand of a double-strand sprocket chain that surrounds either a sun sprocket or a sun disc.
The motor illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, has three parallel shafts that support sprocket wheels of various sizes. The middle, core shaft 3, and one of the outer shafts, the planet shaft 4, are fixed-place shafts via bearings 7, to end walls 41 of a support chassis. The remaining parallel shaft, the moon shaft 5, is able to arc slightly about the middle shaft 3 owing to the fact that the moon shaft 5 is connected via bearings 7 to class two lever arms 35, the which arms are also connected to the core shaft 3 via bearings 7. The middle, core shaft 3 supports a very large sun sprocket 22, at each of its ends. The core shaft 3 also supports six other sprockets, four of which are connected directly to the shaft, and two of which spin freely around the shaft via bearings:
The very large sun sprockets 22 at the ends of the core shaft relate to the shaft through bearings 7, and are held to a constant site by shaft collars 48 on each side of each sun wheel. Around each of the sun sprockets 22 is a two-strand sun chain 24, such that the outer (end-ward) strand of the chain is engaged by the sun sprocket, but the inner (core-ward) strand is free, and may serve as ersatz gear teeth with which sprockets (serving as ersatz cogs) on other shafts may engage. All of the six other core sprockets are the same size, and four them-two fixed, and two free spinning-are also surrounded by multi-strand sprocket chain, just as are the sun sprockets near the ends of the middle shaft.
The outer fixed-place planet shaft 4 carries four earth sprockets 28, two of which engage the free strand of sun chain 24 on each of the sun sprockets 22 on the outer perimeter of the chain; and two of which cycle earth sprocket chain 29 to/from two of the available four fixed core sprockets 8, also sited on the middle core shaft 3.
The free strand of chain 24 on each of the large sun sprockets 22 is also engaged by one of two smaller moon sprockets 14 that reside, one at each end of the floating moon shaft 5. However, it is engaged at the diametrically opposite edge of the larger, sun sprocket 22, relative to where the sprocket of the outer fixed planet shaft 4 engages it;
and each of the end moon sprockets 14 on the floating moon shaft 5 engages the free strand on its inner perimeter as though it were an internal gear.
The floating moon shaft 5 is supported by two class two lever arms 35, and is kept by the arms to a constant distance from the middle core shaft 3, that supports the very large sun sprocket wheels. The lever arms connect to the middle shaft and the floating shaft via bearings 7 that allow both related shafts (3 & 5) to spin freely. The floating moon shaft 5 carries four moon sprockets 14, including the two that engage the sun chain 24 of the very large sun sprocket 22. The moon shaft also supports two lever sprockets 59 that engage the free strand of comet-to-comet chain 57 that reach from `far comet' sprockets 56 to the center 'comet' sprocket wheels 55 that spin on bearings around the core shaft 3. The two moon sprockets 14 that do not engage the sun chain 24 instead engage surrounding chain 9 of core sprockets 8, the which core sprockets are fixed to the core shaft 3.
All of the sprockets that are attached to the floating, moon shaft 5 are fixed to the shaft by hubs 49.
Beneath the middle fixed, core shaft 3 and parallel to it, is a fourth, far comet shaft 62, also fixed near its ends via bearings 7 to the end walls 41 of the supporting chassis. On the lower `far comet' shaft 62 are two fixed, far comet sprockets 56 that are aligned to engage the free strand of each of the two core, center comet sprockets 55 that spin freely on the core shaft 3 via bearings 7.
Fixed to the far comet shaft 62 at, or near, one end of it, is a source of deliberate resistance (Le. work load 61) in the form of a utility. The work load/resistance 61 on the far comet shaft 62 is transferred from the far comet sprocket 56 to the multi-strand comet chain 57 to influence the center comet sprockets 55, (which are on independent bearings 7) but to have no influence on other core wheels.
A feedback circuit/loop is comprised of the sets of moon lever sprockets 59, the moon sprockets 14 that engage the inner perimeter of the sun chain 24, and the two moon sprockets 14 that engage the core chain 9 of the core sprockets 8; plus the sun wheels;
plus the planet/earth sprockets 28 that also engage the sun chain 24, and the inner core chain 9.
Because, when the lever arms are caused to arc about the core shaft, the moon lever sprockets 59 receive a resistance that is not experienced by any other wheels on the three upper parallel shafts (I.e. planet, core, or moon type) that apparent resistance on only the core edge of the moon wheels allows the moon sprockets that engage the inner perimeter of the sun chain 24 to force it to travel. Concurrently, other wheels in the motor system are forced to spin, as it is a closed loop system.
The wheels are forced to continue spinning, and are unable to achieve stasis so long as force is applied to the lever arms 35, and the resulting spin reactions are perpetuated.
[The support chassis is comprised of end walls 41, side walls 39, bottom 42, and top 43.]
The motor illustrated in Figure 3 also uses two sun sprockets 22 surrounded by sun chain 24. In this case center comet sprockets 55 are surrounded by chain 58 that is engaged by far comet sprockets 56 that reach in to them from the far comet shaft 62, and by the moon lever sprockets 59. The resistance is in the form of a flywheel 63 that is attached to the far comet shaft 62.
The motor illustrated in Figure 4 is similar to the one shown in Figures 1 and 2, except that class one lever arms 34 are used to impose leverage against the moon shaft 5. Shaft avoidance slots 38 are cut into the lever arms to allow them to arc around the planet shaft 4, and chime struts 37 join the arms at both ends to further resist wracking of the arms and moon shaft. Also, only a single center comet sprocket 55 and far comet sprocket 56 pairing exists, with the center comet wheel and it surrounding chain 57 sited between the lever arms.
The motor illustrated in Figure 5 has a resistance source sited above it and outside the chassis in the form of a propeller 65, and a further resistance source 61 sited inside near the bottom of the chassis 42. The resistance is conveyed via tangent shafts 64 that are secured in place by struts 71 that are fitted from side wall to side wall. The tangent shafts have bevel cogs 67 at one end of each, that engage bevel gear 66 that is connected to a center comet gear 68 with which the moon lever gear 60 engages. Either one source of resistance, or both sources may be used in such a configuration.
The motor illustrated in Figures 6 uses a rigid sprocket ring called a sprocket halo 45 that carries a multi-strand sprocket chain fixed into a circular ring as by welding. Because there is no hub wall joining the perimeter of the halo to the core shaft, the moon shaft 5 may travel right through the halo and hold wheels on each side of it. As is the case in the embodiment illustrated in Figure 2, the planet shaft 4 carries four sprockets 28 of like size, and the moon shaft 5 carries six wheels (two lever comet sprockets 59, and four moon sprockets 14.) The lever yoke (comprised of two class two arms 35 and a chime strut 37) straddles all wheels on the moon and core shafts. Support sprockets 30 riding on bearings 7 on the far comet shaft 62 help to keep the halo sprocket ring The motor illustrated in Figure 7 also uses a halo sprocket ring 46 (in the form of triple-strand sprocket chain) that surrounds a moulded halo spine 17, and has similar elements as that motor shown in Figure 6.
The motor illustrated in Figure 8 is an illustration of an motor that has similar elements are that shown in Figure 2, except that it has only one of each necessary element. It reveals how precarious and prone to wracking such a configuration might be.
In Figure 9 we see the conventional configuration for a wheel (whether sun type, or halo type) in which the internal gear face has a lesser radius than the external gear face. This design necessitates core wheels of different sizes with which the moon and planet engage in order to maintain a constant ratio moon:core wheel; planet:core wheel.
In Figure 10 a combination configuration of internal and external gear faces allows core wheels to be the same size as they related to the moon and planet wheels.
The motor illustrated in Figures 11 and 12, the upper shafts employ a conventional sun sprocket 22 and chain 24 configuration. This embodiment also uses a transition shaft 74 that carries a transition gear/cog which transfers resistance from the far comet gear 69 to the center comet gear 68 by using smaller gears. The source of resistance on the far comet shaft 62 is a flywheel 63, found outside an end wall 41 of the motor chassis.
The motor illustrated in Figure 13 is similar to that shown in Figures 11 and 12, except that the resistance is conveyed from a far comet sprocket 56 to a transition sprocket 73 on the transition shaft 74, and from there is transferred through a transition gear 76 to a center comet gear 68, and finally to the moon lever gear 60.
The motor illustrated in Figure 14 is similar to that shown in Figure 13, except that resistance is conveyed from a transition sprocket 73 on the transition shaft 74 to a surrounding comet chain 58 on the center comet sprocket 55, and thence to the a moon lever sprocket 59.
The motor illustrated in Figure 15 a transition sprocket 73 resides on the transition shaft 74, and conveys resistance from surrounding chain 58 on a far comet sprocket 56 on the far comet shaft 62 to surrounding chain 58 on a center comet sprocket 55, and finally to a moon lever sprocket 59 on the moon shaft 4.
The motor illustrated in Figure 16 is a conventional sun sprocket 22, and sun chain 24 type, in which the moon lever sprocket 59 is larger than other moon wheels (as it need not conform to size as the other do). For clarity, the lever arms do not show.
The motor illustrated in Figure 17 has a similar configuration to that shown in Figure 16, except that the sun wheel is a combination external-internal gear face type, having external and internal gear faces 53 (20, 21) that have equal radii, that allow other planet and moon wheels to relate to core wheels of the same size. A class two lever 35 is used in this motor. [also see Figure 10]
The motor illustrated in Figure 18 is similar in configuration to that shown in Figure 17, but is a halo motor using a combination gear faces ring 54 (18, 19). This configuration also requires support wheels 32 found on support shafts 6, that ride on the outer rim 77 of the ring.
The motor illustrated in Figure 19 is a sun sprocket 22 and chain 24 type of motor having a class two lever 34 system. Planet shaft 4 avoidance slots 38 are cut into the lever arms to allow the arms to arc slightly in order to force the elements on the moon shaft 5 to react. This configuration also allows lever arms to have support chimes 37 at both ends.
The motor illustrated in Figure 20 is a sun sprocket 22 and chain 24 type, having two moon shafts 5 and their related sprocket wheels 14 and lever sprockets 59; and having only one planet shaft 4. The planet shaft earth sprockets 28 cycle chain 29 to their related core sprockets 8, and moon sprockets engage core chain 9 found on core sprockets 8. The moon lever sprockets 59 are larger than other moon sprockets 1.4 and engage surrounding chain 58 on center comet sprockets 55.
Resistance is sent via chain 57 from the far comet sprockets 56 that reside on the far comet shaft 62 that in this case is above the rest of the motor.
A teeter lever 36 moves both moon shafts in accord, while the planet shaft remains fixed.
The motor illustrated in Figure 21 is similar to that shown in Figure 20, except that a combination rim 53 is used on the sun wheels. This means that planet (earth) gears 27 engage the sun rim on the outside 21 and moon gears 13 engage the sun rim on its internal face 20. Earth sprockets 28 send chain to the core sprockets 8, and moon sprockets 14 engage chain 9 that surrounds core sprockets 8. Moon lever gears 60 engage the center comet gear 68 that is connected to the center comet sprocket 55. A
teeter lever 36 is used again.
The motor illustrated in Figure 22 is similar to that shown in Figure 21, except that the major wheel is a combination halo ring 54. In this case the fixed-shaft earth gears 27 that engage the halo also serve as support elements of the halo, as well as do the dedicated support wheels 30. Moon lever sprockets 59 engage center comet chain 58 that surrounds the center comet sprockets 55.
The motor illustrated in Figure 23 is similar to that shown in Figure 22, except that moon lever gears 60 engage center comet gears 68 (instead of moon lever sprockets engaging center comet sprocket chain).
The motor illustrated in Figure 24 uses a disc 23 that rides on bearings 7, instead of a large sprocket, by which to carry multi-strand sprocket chain 24. The outer strand of the chain grips the rim 77 of the disc, leaving the inner strand free to be engaged by moon and planet sprockets. In this case a relatively smaller 'half-moon' sprocket engages the inner strand of the sun chain 24, and a relatively smaller 'mars' sprocket engages the inner strand of the sun chain 24. The moon shaft 5 also carries larger `full moon' sprockets 14 that send full moon chain 15 to fixed core sprockets 8. The planet shaft 4 also carries larger 'earth' sprockets 28 that send earth chain 29 to core sprockets 8. A
large lever sprocket 59 engages the surrounding chain 58 of the center comet sprocket 55.
Another center comet sprocket 55 is connected to the first mentioned comet sprocket, the both of which ride on bearings. That second comet sprocket 55 receives resistance from a far comet sprocket 56 via chain 57. Because the planet shaft 4 is fully between the sun wheels 23, but must remain fixed, two support struts 70 are extended from bottom 42 to top 43 of the chassis which allow the planet shaft 4 to be secured though them via bearings 7.
The motor illustrated in Figure 25 is similar to that shown in Figure 24, except that a halo sprocket ring 17 is used instead of a sun sprocket ring. Because it is a halo, two support sprockets 30 exist beneath it to support it and hold it in place. Class two lever arms 35 are shown that extend beyond a side wall 39 through a dedicated window 44 in the wall.
Figure 26 indicates how a halo sprocket chain 46 is supported by a spine 17 that reaches in to the bushing of the chain 79 between the chain plates 78, and is not wide enough to interfere with the travel of the moon shaft 5 that carries the moon sprockets 14. The moon sprockets are fixed to the moon shaft via hubs 49, and engage the inner side of the chain at its outer bushings/rollers 79.
Figure 27 shows how a sun disc 23 or sun sprocket 22 engages the outer strand of a two-strand sprocket chain 24 to support it, and allow a moon sprocket 12 or 14 found at the end of the moon shaft 5, to engage the free strand between its chain plates 78.

This invention relates to a perpetual motion machine, which, for a variety of reasons has not been achieved in the past. I have found that by using a deliberate focused resistance source sited through bearings on a middle shaft of a motor comprised of many wheels and chains, that force applied by levers can be converted into useable spinning energy.

Figure 7 is a side view of the embodiment shown in Figure 6, indicating support wheels for the halo wheel, needed in order to keep it properly aligned, Figure 8 is a top view of an embodiment showing only one of each necessary element in an embodiment using a sun sprocket, Figure 9 is a sectional profile of the main wheel/s in the motor in which external and internal gear faces are revealed to planet gears and moon gears respectively, indicating how, if the planet and moon gears do not meet the main gear faces at the same radius from the center they must relate to core wheels that have different sizes in order to retain the same necessary ratio (I.e. moon:core=planet: core). Figure 10 is a sectional profile of the edge of a combination gear for sun or halo applications.
Figure 11 is a side view of an embodiment using two sun sprockets, having a transitional shaft that allows smaller gears to be used from the far comet to the center comet, Figure 12 is a top view of the embodiment shown in Figure 11, Figure 13 is an embodiment that is similar to that shown in Figures 11, 12, but sending resistance via chain from the far comet to the transition shaft, Figure 14 is a side view of an embodiment that is similar to that shown in Figure 13 except that a sprocket engages a surrounding chain on the center comet instead of a gear-to-gear engagement, Figure 15 is a side view of an embodiment having a sprocket on a transition shaft that transfers resistance from surrounding chain on the far comet to the surrounding chain on the center sprocket, Figure 16 is an end view in X-ray of an embodiment having a sun sprocket and chain with which moon sprockets and earth sprockets are engaged, yet not showing the necessary lever arms (for clarity), Figure 17 is an end view of a similar configuration as that shown in Figure 16, but with lever arms included, in which combination gear faces are present on the perimeter of the sun wheel, Figure 18 is an end view of a halo embodiment with a similar configuration to that shown in Figure 17, but with the lever arms absent (only for clarity of view), and showing halo support wheels, Figure 19 is an end view of a sun sprocket type of embodiment having a class one lever that has a shaft avoidance slot in it in order to avoid the planet shaft as it imposes force against the moon shaft, Figure 20 is an end view of a sun sprocket type of embodiment having one planet shaft and two moon shafts. It also shows a teeter lever that controls both moon shafts, and has the far comet wheel above the core shaft instead of beneath it, Figure 21 is an end view of an embodiment that is similar to that shown in Figure 20, except that a combination gear face if used on the sun wheel, Figure 22 is an end view of an embodiment that has a similar configuration to that shown in Figure 20, except that the major wheel is a halo instead of a sun sprocket, Figure 23 is and end view of an embodiment that is similar to that shown in Figure 22 except that the halo used a combination gear face on its outer perimeter, Figure 24 is an end view of an embodiment that employs half-moon sprockets to engage the sun chain, but full moon sprockets and chain to engage core sprockets. It also used `mars' sprockets on the planet shaft to engage the sun chain, but earth sprockets and chain to reach the core sprockets.
Further, the planet shaft is within the compass of the sun sprocket, so must be supported by struts from bottom to top of the motor chassis. The lever arms exist but do not show for clarity. Figure 25 is an end view of a halo sprocket ring that is in some ways similar to the embodiment shown in Figure 24. In it the lever arms are present, and extend through a side wall window. Figure 26 is a side profile in section of a moon shaft travelling through a halo ring and carrying two moon sprockets, Figure 27 is a side profile in section of a moon shaft and its end moon sprocket engaging the free strand of a double-strand sprocket chain that surrounds either a sun sprocket or a sun disc.
The motor illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, has three parallel shafts that support sprocket wheels of various sizes. The middle, core shaft 3, and one of the outer shafts, the planet shaft 4, are fixed-place shafts via bearings 7, to end walls 41 of a support chassis. The remaining parallel shaft, the moon shaft 5, is able to arc slightly about the middle shaft 3 owing to the fact that the moon shaft 5 is connected via bearings 7 to class two lever arms 35, the which arms are also connected to the core shaft 3 via bearings 7. The middle, core shaft 3 supports a very large sun sprocket 22, at each of its ends. The core shaft 3 also supports six other sprockets, four of which are connected directly to the shaft, and two of which spin freely around the shaft via bearings:
The very large sun sprockets 22 at the ends of the core shaft relate to the shaft through bearings 7, and are held to a constant site by shaft collars 48 on each side of each sun wheel. Around each of the sun sprockets 22 is a two-strand sun chain 24, such that the outer (end-ward) strand of the chain is engaged by the sun sprocket, but the inner (core-ward) strand is free, and may serve as ersatz gear teeth with which sprockets (serving as ersatz cogs) on other shafts may engage. All of the six other core sprockets are the same size, and four them-two fixed, and two free spinning-are also surrounded by multi-strand sprocket chain, just as are the sun sprockets near the ends of the middle shaft.
The outer fixed-place planet shaft 4 carries four earth sprockets 28, two of which engage the free strand of sun chain 24 on each of the sun sprockets 22 on the outer perimeter of the chain; and two of which cycle earth sprocket chain 29 to/from two of the available four fixed core sprockets 8, also sited on the middle core shaft 3.
The free strand of chain 24 on each of the large sun sprockets 22 is also engaged by one of two smaller moon sprockets 14 that reside, one at each end of the floating moon shaft 5. However, it is engaged at the diametrically opposite edge of the larger, sun sprocket 22, relative to where the sprocket of the outer fixed planet shaft 4 engages it;
and each of the end moon sprockets 14 on the floating moon shaft 5 engages the free strand on its inner perimeter as though it were an internal gear.
The floating moon shaft 5 is supported by two class two lever arms 35, and is kept by the arms to a constant distance from the middle core shaft 3, that supports the very large sun sprocket wheels. The lever arms connect to the middle shaft and the floating shaft via bearings 7 that allow both related shafts (3 & 5) to spin freely. The floating moon shaft 5 carries four moon sprockets 14, including the two that engage the sun chain 24 of the very large sun sprocket 22. The moon shaft also supports two lever sprockets 59 that engage the free strand of comet-to-comet chain 57 that reach from `far comet' sprockets 56 to the center 'comet' sprocket wheels 55 that spin on bearings around the core shaft 3. The two moon sprockets 14 that do not engage the sun chain 24 instead engage surrounding chain 9 of core sprockets 8, the which core sprockets are fixed to the core shaft 3.
All of the sprockets that are attached to the floating, moon shaft 5 are fixed to the shaft by hubs 49.
Beneath the middle fixed, core shaft 3 and parallel to it, is a fourth, far comet shaft 62, also fixed near its ends via bearings 7 to the end walls 41 of the supporting chassis. On the lower `far comet' shaft 62 are two fixed, far comet sprockets 56 that are aligned to engage the free strand of each of the two core, center comet sprockets 55 that spin freely on the core shaft 3 via bearings 7.
Fixed to the far comet shaft 62 at, or near, one end of it, is a source of deliberate resistance (Le. work load 61) in the form of a utility. The work load/resistance 61 on the far comet shaft 62 is transferred from the far comet sprocket 56 to the multi-strand comet chain 57 to influence the center comet sprockets 55, (which are on independent bearings 7) but to have no influence on other core wheels.
A feedback circuit/loop is comprised of the sets of moon lever sprockets 59, the moon sprockets 14 that engage the inner perimeter of the sun chain 24, and the two moon sprockets 14 that engage the core chain 9 of the core sprockets 8; plus the sun wheels;
plus the planet/earth sprockets 28 that also engage the sun chain 24, and the inner core chain 9.
Because, when the lever arms are caused to arc about the core shaft, the moon lever sprockets 59 receive a resistance that is not experienced by any other wheels on the three upper parallel shafts (I.e. planet, core, or moon type) that apparent resistance on only the core edge of the moon wheels allows the moon sprockets that engage the inner perimeter of the sun chain 24 to force it to travel. Concurrently, other wheels in the motor system are forced to spin, as it is a closed loop system.
The wheels are forced to continue spinning, and are unable to achieve stasis so long as force is applied to the lever arms 35, and the resulting spin reactions are perpetuated.
[The support chassis is comprised of end walls 41, side walls 39, bottom 42, and top 43.]
The motor illustrated in Figure 3 also uses two sun sprockets 22 surrounded by sun chain 24. In this case center comet sprockets 55 are surrounded by chain 58 that is engaged by far comet sprockets 56 that reach in to them from the far comet shaft 62, and by the moon lever sprockets 59. The resistance is in the form of a flywheel 63 that is attached to the far comet shaft 62.
The motor illustrated in Figure 4 is similar to the one shown in Figures 1 and 2, except that class one lever arms 34 are used to impose leverage against the moon shaft 5. Shaft avoidance slots 38 are cut into the lever arms to allow them to arc around the planet shaft 4, and chime struts 37 join the arms at both ends to further resist wracking of the arms and moon shaft. Also, only a single center comet sprocket 55 and far comet sprocket 56 pairing exists, with the center comet wheel and it surrounding chain 57 sited between the lever arms.
The motor illustrated in Figure 5 has a resistance source sited above it and outside the chassis in the form of a propeller 65, and a further resistance source 61 sited inside near the bottom of the chassis 42. The resistance is conveyed via tangent shafts 64 that are secured in place by struts 71 that are fitted from side wall to side wall. The tangent shafts have bevel cogs 67 at one end of each, that engage bevel gear 66 that is connected to a center comet gear 68 with which the moon lever gear 60 engages. Either one source of resistance, or both sources may be used in such a configuration.
The motor illustrated in Figures 6 uses a rigid sprocket ring called a sprocket halo 45 that carries a multi-strand sprocket chain fixed into a circular ring as by welding. Because there is no hub wall joining the perimeter of the halo to the core shaft, the moon shaft 5 may travel right through the halo and hold wheels on each side of it. As is the case in the embodiment illustrated in Figure 2, the planet shaft 4 carries four sprockets 28 of like size, and the moon shaft 5 carries six wheels (two lever comet sprockets 59, and four moon sprockets 14.) The lever yoke (comprised of two class two arms 35 and a chime strut 37) straddles all wheels on the moon and core shafts. Support sprockets 30 riding on bearings 7 on the far comet shaft 62 help to keep the halo sprocket ring The motor illustrated in Figure 7 also uses a halo sprocket ring 46 (in the form of triple-strand sprocket chain) that surrounds a moulded halo spine 17, and has similar elements as that motor shown in Figure 6.
The motor illustrated in Figure 8 is an illustration of an motor that has similar elements are that shown in Figure 2, except that it has only one of each necessary element. It reveals how precarious and prone to wracking such a configuration might be.
In Figure 9 we see the conventional configuration for a wheel (whether sun type, or halo type) in which the internal gear face has a lesser radius than the external gear face. This design necessitates core wheels of different sizes with which the moon and planet engage in order to maintain a constant ratio moon:core wheel; planet:core wheel.
In Figure 10 a combination configuration of internal and external gear faces allows core wheels to be the same size as they related to the moon and planet wheels.
The motor illustrated in Figures 11 and 12, the upper shafts employ a conventional sun sprocket 22 and chain 24 configuration. This embodiment also uses a transition shaft 74 that carries a transition gear/cog which transfers resistance from the far comet gear 69 to the center comet gear 68 by using smaller gears. The source of resistance on the far comet shaft 62 is a flywheel 63, found outside an end wall 41 of the motor chassis.
The motor illustrated in Figure 13 is similar to that shown in Figures 11 and 12, except that the resistance is conveyed from a far comet sprocket 56 to a transition sprocket 73 on the transition shaft 74, and from there is transferred through a transition gear 76 to a center comet gear 68, and finally to the moon lever gear 60.
The motor illustrated in Figure 14 is similar to that shown in Figure 13, except that resistance is conveyed from a transition sprocket 73 on the transition shaft 74 to a surrounding comet chain 58 on the center comet sprocket 55, and thence to the a moon lever sprocket 59.
The motor illustrated in Figure 15 a transition sprocket 73 resides on the transition shaft 74, and conveys resistance from surrounding chain 58 on a far comet sprocket 56 on the far comet shaft 62 to surrounding chain 58 on a center comet sprocket 55, and finally to a moon lever sprocket 59 on the moon shaft 4.
The motor illustrated in Figure 16 is a conventional sun sprocket 22, and sun chain 24 type, in which the moon lever sprocket 59 is larger than other moon wheels (as it need not conform to size as the other do). For clarity, the lever arms do not show.
The motor illustrated in Figure 17 has a similar configuration to that shown in Figure 16, except that the sun wheel is a combination external-internal gear face type, having external and internal gear faces 53 (20, 21) that have equal radii, that allow other planet and moon wheels to relate to core wheels of the same size. A class two lever 35 is used in this motor. [also see Figure 10]
The motor illustrated in Figure 18 is similar in configuration to that shown in Figure 17, but is a halo motor using a combination gear faces ring 54 (18, 19). This configuration also requires support wheels 32 found on support shafts 6, that ride on the outer rim 77 of the ring.
The motor illustrated in Figure 19 is a sun sprocket 22 and chain 24 type of motor having a class two lever 34 system. Planet shaft 4 avoidance slots 38 are cut into the lever arms to allow the arms to arc slightly in order to force the elements on the moon shaft 5 to react. This configuration also allows lever arms to have support chimes 37 at both ends.
The motor illustrated in Figure 20 is a sun sprocket 22 and chain 24 type, having two moon shafts 5 and their related sprocket wheels 14 and lever sprockets 59; and having only one planet shaft 4. The planet shaft earth sprockets 28 cycle chain 29 to their related core sprockets 8, and moon sprockets engage core chain 9 found on core sprockets 8. The moon lever sprockets 59 are larger than other moon sprockets 1.4 and engage surrounding chain 58 on center comet sprockets 55.
Resistance is sent via chain 57 from the far comet sprockets 56 that reside on the far comet shaft 62 that in this case is above the rest of the motor.
A teeter lever 36 moves both moon shafts in accord, while the planet shaft remains fixed.
The motor illustrated in Figure 21 is similar to that shown in Figure 20, except that a combination rim 53 is used on the sun wheels. This means that planet (earth) gears 27 engage the sun rim on the outside 21 and moon gears 13 engage the sun rim on its internal face 20. Earth sprockets 28 send chain to the core sprockets 8, and moon sprockets 14 engage chain 9 that surrounds core sprockets 8. Moon lever gears 60 engage the center comet gear 68 that is connected to the center comet sprocket 55. A
teeter lever 36 is used again.
The motor illustrated in Figure 22 is similar to that shown in Figure 21, except that the major wheel is a combination halo ring 54. In this case the fixed-shaft earth gears 27 that engage the halo also serve as support elements of the halo, as well as do the dedicated support wheels 30. Moon lever sprockets 59 engage center comet chain 58 that surrounds the center comet sprockets 55.
The motor illustrated in Figure 23 is similar to that shown in Figure 22, except that moon lever gears 60 engage center comet gears 68 (instead of moon lever sprockets engaging center comet sprocket chain).
The motor illustrated in Figure 24 uses a disc 23 that rides on bearings 7, instead of a large sprocket, by which to carry multi-strand sprocket chain 24. The outer strand of the chain grips the rim 77 of the disc, leaving the inner strand free to be engaged by moon and planet sprockets. In this case a relatively smaller 'half-moon' sprocket engages the inner strand of the sun chain 24, and a relatively smaller 'mars' sprocket engages the inner strand of the sun chain 24. The moon shaft 5 also carries larger `full moon' sprockets 14 that send full moon chain 15 to fixed core sprockets 8. The planet shaft 4 also carries larger 'earth' sprockets 28 that send earth chain 29 to core sprockets 8. A
large lever sprocket 59 engages the surrounding chain 58 of the center comet sprocket 55.
Another center comet sprocket 55 is connected to the first mentioned comet sprocket, the both of which ride on bearings. That second comet sprocket 55 receives resistance from a far comet sprocket 56 via chain 57. Because the planet shaft 4 is fully between the sun wheels 23, but must remain fixed, two support struts 70 are extended from bottom 42 to top 43 of the chassis which allow the planet shaft 4 to be secured though them via bearings 7.
The motor illustrated in Figure 25 is similar to that shown in Figure 24, except that a halo sprocket ring 17 is used instead of a sun sprocket ring. Because it is a halo, two support sprockets 30 exist beneath it to support it and hold it in place. Class two lever arms 35 are shown that extend beyond a side wall 39 through a dedicated window 44 in the wall.
Figure 26 indicates how a halo sprocket chain 46 is supported by a spine 17 that reaches in to the bushing of the chain 79 between the chain plates 78, and is not wide enough to interfere with the travel of the moon shaft 5 that carries the moon sprockets 14. The moon sprockets are fixed to the moon shaft via hubs 49, and engage the inner side of the chain at its outer bushings/rollers 79.
Figure 27 shows how a sun disc 23 or sun sprocket 22 engages the outer strand of a two-strand sprocket chain 24 to support it, and allow a moon sprocket 12 or 14 found at the end of the moon shaft 5, to engage the free strand between its chain plates 78.

Claims (23)
- CLAIM 1 A motor having three parallel shafts that support sprocket wheels of various sizes. The middle, core shaft, and one of the outer shafts, the planet shaft, are fixed-place shafts via bearings to end walls of a support chassis. The remaining parallel shaft, the moon shaft, is able to arc slightly about the middle shaft owing to the fact that the moon shaft is connected via bearings to class two lever arms, the which arms are also connected to the core shaft via bearings. The middle, core shaft supports a very large sun sprocket, at each of its ends. The core shaft also supports six other sprockets, four of which are connected directly to the shaft, and two of which spin freely around the shaft via bearings:
The very large sun sprockets at the ends of the core shaft relate to the shaft through bearings, and are held to a constant site by shaft collars on each side of each sun wheel.
Around each of the sun sprockets is a two-strand sun chain, such that the outer (end-ward) strand of the chain is engaged by the sun sprocket, but the inner (core-ward) strand is free, and may serve as ersatz gear teeth with which sprockets (serving as ersatz cogs) on other shafts may engage. All of the six other core sprockets are the same size, and four them-two fixed, and two free spinning are also surrounded by multi-strand sprocket chain, just as are the sun sprockets near the ends of the middle shaft.
The outer fixed-place planet shaft carries four earth sprockets, two of which engage the free strand of sun chain on each of the sun sprockets on the outer perimeter of the chain;
and two of which cycle earth sprocket chain to/from two of the available four fixed core sprockets, also sited on the middle core shaft.
The free strand of chain on each of the large sun sprockets is also engaged by one of two smaller moon sprockets that reside, one at each end of the floating moon shaft. However, it is engaged at the diametrically opposite edge of the larger, sun sprocket, relative to where the sprocket of the outer fixed planet shaft engages it; and each of the end moon sprockets on the floating moon shaft engages the free strand on its inner perimeter as though it were an internal gear.
The floating moon shaft is supported by two class two lever arms, and is kept by the arms to a constant distance from the middle core shaft, that supports the very large sun sprocket wheels. The lever arms connect to the middle shaft and the floating shaft via bearings that allow both related shafts to spin freely. The floating moon shaft carries four moon sprockets, including the two that engage the sun chain of the very large sun sprocket. The moon shaft also supports two lever sprockets that engage the free strand of comet-to-comet chain that reach from 'far comet' sprockets to the center 'comet' sprocket wheels that spin on bearings around the core shaft. The two moon sprockets that do not engage the sun chain instead engage surrounding chain of core sprockets, the which core sprockets are fixed to the core shaft. All of the sprockets that are attached to the floating, moon shaft are fixed to the shaft by hubs.
Beneath the middle fixed, core shaft and parallel to it, is a fourth, far comet shaft, also fixed near its ends via bearings to the end walls of the supporting chassis.
On the lower 'far comet' shaft are two fixed, far comet sprockets that are aligned to engage the free strand of each of the two core, center comet sprockets that spin freely on the core shaft via bearings.
Fixed to the far comet shaft at, or near, one end of it, is a source of deliberate resistance (I.e. work load) in the form of a utility. The work load/resistance 61 on the far comet shaft is transferred from the far comet sprocket to the multi-strand comet chain to influence the center comet sprockets, (which are on independent bearings) but to have no influence on other core wheels.
A feedback circuit/loop is comprised of the sets of moon lever sprockets, the moon sprockets that engage the inner perimeter of the sun chain, and the two moon sprockets that engage the core chain of the core sprockets; plus the sun wheels; plus the planet/earth sprockets that also engage the sun chain, and the inner core chain.
Because, when the lever arms are caused to arc about the core shaft, the moon lever sprockets receive a resistance that is not experienced by any other wheels on the three upper parallel shafts (I.e. planet, core, or moon type) that apparent resistance on only the core edge of the moon wheels allows the moon sprockets that engage the inner perimeter of the sun chain to force it to travel. Concurrently, other wheels in the motor system are forced to spin, as it is a closed loop system.
The wheels are forced to continue spinning, and are unable to achieve stasis so long as force is applied to the lever arms, and the resulting spin reactions are perpetuated.
The support chassis is comprised of end walls, side walls, bottom, and top.
[As illustrated in Figures 1 and 2 of the Specification.] - CLAIM 2 A motor that also uses two sun sprockets surrounded by sun chain.

[As illustrated in part in Figure 5.] - CLAIM 7 A motor that uses a rigid sprocket ring called a sprocket halo that carries a multi-strand sprocket chain fixed into a circular ring as by welding.

[As is the case in the embodiment illustrated in Figure 2,] the planet shaft carries four sprockets of like size, and the moon shaft carries six wheels (two lever comet sprockets, and four moon sprockets.) The lever yoke (comprised of two class two arms and a chime strut) straddles all wheels on the moon and core shafts. Support sprockets riding on bearings on the far comet shaft help to keep the halo sprocket ring in place.

[As illustrated in Figure 15.] - CLAIM 14 A motor that is a conventional sun sprocket, and sun chain type, in which the moon lever sprocket is larger than other moon wheels (as it need not conform to size as the other do).
[As illustrated in Figure 16.] - CLAIM 15 A motor that has a similar configuration to that shown in Figure 16, except that the sun wheel is a combination external-internal gear face type, having external and internal gear faces that have equal radii, that allow other planet and moon wheels to relate to core wheels of the same size. A class two lever is used in this motor.
[As illustrated in Figure 17.] [also see Figures 10, 16] - CLAIM 16 A motor that is similar in configuration to that shown in Figure 17, but is a halo motor using a combination gear faces ring. This configuration also requires support wheels found on support shafts, that ride on the outer rim of the ring.
[As illustrated in Figure 18.] - CLAIM 17 A sun sprocket and chain type of motor, having a class two lever system.
Planet shaft avoidance slots are cut into the lever arms to allow the arms to arc slightly in order to force the elements on the moon shaft to react. This configuration also allows lever arms to have support chimes at both ends.
[As illustrated in Figure 19.] - CLAIM 18 A sun sprocket and chain type of motor, having two moon shafts and their related sprocket wheels and lever sprockets; and having only one planet shaft. The planet shaft earth sprockets cycle chain to their related core sprockets, and moon sprockets engage core chain found on core sprockets. The moon lever sprockets are larger than other moon sprockets and engage surrounding chain on center comet sprockets. Resistance is sent via chain from the far comet sprockets that reside on the far comet shaft that in this case is above the rest of the motor. A teeter lever moves both moon shafts in accord, while the planet shaft remains fixed.
[As illustrated in Figure 20.] - CLAIM 19 A motor that is similar to that shown in Figure 20, except that a combination rim is used on the sun wheels. This means that planet (earth) gears engage the sun rim on the outside and moon gears engage the sun rim on its internal face. Earth sprockets send chain to the core sprockets, and moon sprockets engage chain that surrounds core sprockets.
Moon lever gears engage the center comet gear that is connected to the center comet sprocket. A
teeter lever is used again.
[As illustrated in Figure 21.] - CLAIM 20 A motor that is similar to that shown in Figure 21, except that the major wheel is a combination halo ring. In this case the fixed-shaft earth gears that engage the halo also serve as support elements of the halo, as well as do the dedicated support wheels. Moon lever sprockets engage center comet chain that surrounds the center comet sprockets.
[As illustrated in Figure 22.] - CLAIM 21 The motor that is similar to that shown in Figure 22, except that moon lever gears engage center comet gears (instead of moon lever sprockets engaging center comet sprocket chain). [As illustrated in Figure 23.]
- CLAIM 22 A motor that uses a disc that rides on bearings, instead of a large sprocket, by which to carry multi-strand sprocket chain. The outer strand of the chain grips the rim of the disc, leaving the inner strand free to be engaged by moon and planet sprockets. In this case a relatively smaller 'half-moon' sprocket engages the inner strand of the sun chain, and a relatively smaller 'mars' sprocket engages the inner strand of the sun chain.
The moon shaft also carries larger 'full moon' sprockets that send full moon chain to fixed core sprockets The planet shaft also carries larger 'earth' sprockets that send earth chain to core sprockets. A large lever sprocket engages the surrounding chain of the center comet sprocket.
Another center comet sprocket is connected to the first mentioned comet sprocket, the both of which ride on bearings. That second comet sprocket receives resistance from a far comet sprocket via chain. Because the planet shaft is fully between the sun wheels, but must remain fixed. Two support struts are extended from bottom to top of the chassis which allow the planet shaft to be secured though them via bearings.
[As illustrated in Figure 24.] - CLAIM 23 A motor that is similar to that shown in Figure 24, except that a halo sprocket ring is used instead of a sun sprocket ring. Because it is a halo, two support sprockets exist beneath it to support it and hold it in place. Class two lever arms extend beyond a side wall through a dedicated window in a side wall.
[As illustrated in Figure 25.]
