Abstract

An energy transfer device, that converts electrical energy from a DC input voltage to any DC output voltage, includes a single rotating magnet assembly 4, a case assembly 1, a primary winding and one or more secondary windings. In operation a DC input is applied to the primary winding thereby rotating the magnet assembly inducing a voltage in the secondary winding proportional to the ratio of turns in the primary and secondary windings.

Description

Energy Transfer Device This nvenhon relates to an Energy Transfer Device
This Energy Transfe, Device car be used to convert electrical energy from a substantially Direct Current (DC) voltage level to another DC voltage level, and / or to provide electrical solat on, and / or to provide multiple DC output voltage levels This Is usually accomplished by a Power Supply of some descngton T he disadvantage of existing Power Supplies is that they often have many components In them, and they no not transfer the energy from the Input side to the Output side very efficiently esuH!ln In high amounts of energy being lost In the form of heat An object of this invention Is transfer electrical energy from an Input to an output(s) efficiently In terms of the quantity and complexity of the components used, and efficiently In terms of low wasted heat dunog the transfer Accordingly, this Invention provides a means to convert substantially DC electrical energy from an Input voyage source to a DC output voltage (or voltages) by utlsng a single rotating magnet assembly located Inside the primary and seonr.ary coils of wee Preferably the rotating magnet assembly Is prevented from physically touching any other part of the device by being held In place by a static magnet assembly with repelling r,agi1ebsm sc as to reduce the effects of fusion upon the rotating magnet assembly, but this static magnet assembly could be replaced with bearings Preferably, the area Inside the device In which the rotating magnet assembly rotates will be under a full or parhal vacuum In order to reduce factional losses due to air A prefenrec embodiment of the nvenbon will now be desonbec with reference to the accompanying drawing In which FIG 1 shows a side view of the complete system with a primacy winding (2) and secondary winding (3) In this configuration, the Input and output windings are electrically Isolated FIG 2 shows a section view A-A In winch the rotating magnet assembly (4) and the static magnet assembly (5) can be seen FIG 3 shows a more enlarged section In which the duschon of magnetism of the rotating magnet assembly (4) and the static magnet assembly (5) can be seen As shown In FIG 1, the Energy Transfer Device comprises a case assembly (1) with electrical conductors In the form of a primary winding (2) and one or more secondary windings (3) The pnrr,ary and secondary windings can be any number OT turns, or tums ratio, and can be electrically connected to each other If electrical Isolation Is not required It Is also possible to have mulhply secc,ndary windings if more than one output voltage Is required FIG 2 shows a sector,al view of the device In which the static magnet assembly (5) Is secured to the Case Assembly (1) The static magnet assembly Is magnetized as shown In FIG 3 FIG 2 and FIG 3 also show the ro. atonal magnet assembly (4) This ro.atonal magnet assembly Is magnetized as shown in FIG 3 such that the rotat,ona! magnet assembly repels the magnetism at the static magnet assembly This configuration enables the rotational magnet assembly to remain In the desired position and be free to rotate around the device This arrangement also enables the rotational magnet assembly to be physically sepa, ated from all the other components within the cease such that it Is not touching anything The area which the rotational magnet resides within the device is subject to a ful! c,r Martha! vacuum so as to reduce frston with the Or
a DC voltage Is applied to the primary winding (2), the rotational magnet assembly (4) will begin to Spin within the case assembly (1) This rotating of the rotational magnet assembly will Induce a voltage into the secondary winding (3) propo,onal to the turns ratio of the primary and secondary windings
