Abstract
To a regular mechanical combustion engine, the inclusion of electromagnets 1-3 above combustion chambers, into piston heads and crankshaft to supply and exert an electromagnetic force onto the piston head -- and therefore a motive force resulting in motion of the piston -- by means of interaction and repulsion of like poles of each electromagnet. The charge to each electromagnet is timed as to exert an electromagnetic force at specific times as the piston travels up and down within the cylinder.
Description
The electromagnetic addition to the mechanical combustion engine
Description
By including electromagnets into a crankshaft, piston heads, and above the combustion chambers of a regular mechanical combustion engine, a substantial motive force on the piston heads will be applied.
This would aid the movement of the piston inside the cylinder, thus decreasing the amount of fuel needed in creating the same force, and therefore motion of the piston, from combustion alone.
In figure 1, electromagnets 1, 2 and 3 and electrical connections 3 and 4 are shown. Electromagnet 1 is situated above the combustion chamber. When the piston head is at the highest position in the cylinder, electromagnet 1 activates for the South Pole to repel the south pole of the electromagnet 2 situated inside the piston head; in doing so, it applies a downward force on the piston.
When the piston head is at the lowest position in the cylinder, the electromagnet 3 in the crankshaft is activated. The North Pole of electromagnet 2 inside the piston head will repel with the North Pole of electromagnet 3 inside the crankshaft; in doing so, it applies an upward force on the piston.
With the correct timing, pulsing of charge to the electromagnets, and strength/distance of the magnetic flux lines between electromagnets, a substantial motive force is applied to the piston, resulting in motion of the piston.
Electrical energy from the battery would be a clean and efficient substitute for using less fuel while maintaining the same forces achieved in using combustion alone. This design would fully integrate electrical power --as a source for creating motive power --into a full mechanical combustion engine.
Claims (5)
- Claims 1. The inclusion of timed electromagnets within piston heads, crankshaft and above combustion chambers of a regular mechanical combustion engine will exert motive force, and therefore motion, to a piston.
- 2. The motive force exerted on the piston head will come from the interaction and repulsion of like poles of the electromagnets situated in the crankshaft and above the combustion chambers with the like poles of the electromagnet situated inside the piston head.
- 3. The motive force and motion of the piston head created by the interaction of the electromagnets would reduce the amount of fuel needed to achieve the same motive force onto the piston head, from combustion alone.
- 4. The reduction of fuel used, from the addition of electromagnetism to create motive force, will result in less exhaust gas and pollution; the car battery, or an additional battery, will supply the electrical charge for the timed electromagnets.
- 5. Full integration of electrical energy and electromagnetism into a combustion mechanical engine --uniting the growing concern in green energy directly with the continuing desire for the mechanical combustion engine.
