Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to gyroscopic propulsion devices and craft incorporating such devices.

Gyroscope propulsion is a means of propulsion that does not derive thrust in one direction from displacing objects in the opposite direction, as in traditional moving bodies; rather, the entrainer derives its propulsion effect completely. The river is pulled from inside. A gyroscope is used as a stabilizing effect on a large ship, and the movement of ocean waves tends to cause the ship to sway vertically and horizontally. The gyroscope exhibits this potential in the most basic form when it resists these movements by trying to apply its rotation to its own −L. In order to provide a gyroscope device that can be used to propel a vehicle,
We took advantage of this potential of the gyroscope.

According to the present invention, there are provided at least three gyroscopes, each of which is arranged to freely rotate around one rotational axis at equiangularly spaced positions; means for rotating the gyroscope, and when the gyroscope rotates about the axis in use;
said free rotational movement in order to cause each gyroscope to precess, thereby producing a precessional torque for propelling the vehicle in which the device is disposed when in use. means for selectively locking each gyroscope relative to the axis of rotation of the individual gyroscope assemblies for correcting their rotation due to the respective precessional torque impulses caused by sequentially rotating the individual gyroscope assemblies; and means for enabling rearrangement.

The present invention also provides an annular passenger rotatably disposed around the propulsion device so as to rotate in a direction opposite to the direction in which the torque due to the precession of the force propulsion device and the gyroscope acts as described above. This provides a vehicle with a built-in cabin.

The present invention further includes a hollow disk-shaped skin member enclosing the propulsion device assembly, the annular cabin and outer container, and means for rotating the skin member, and rotatably mounted thereon. Provide a moving body containing.

The first and fundamental property of a gyroscope is its inertia or stiffness. This can be said to be the resistance of the rotational structure to change its rotational surface when subjected to -C action by an external force.

A gyroscope, under the action of an applied force, has a second property known as ``gyroscopic precession'', which may be expressed as an angular change in its plane of rotation. This is done in Figure 12, which shows how the model gyroscopes are able to avoid the pull due to gravity as they move around the tower. ,
The m-frame gyroscope held at Y is activated. It is supported by X! Therefore, the gyroscope can only move down in an arc Z, and its plane of rotation W must therefore be changed. Two forces, gyroscope stiffness and gravity, now oppose each other. In order to overcome the gyroscope's stiffness W, gravity G must first succeed in tilting the wheel and pulling it along the downward arc Z, but it does so because it is the weaker of the two forces. I can't do it. However, that effect is negated by the rotational signature of the wheel, which exerts a torque in the opposite direction across its axis of rotation to maintain its plane of rotation, but since the pull of gravity is constant, the resulting opposite direction The torque remains constant until the wheel again maintains its plane of rotation by applying a second torque in the opposite direction to the first. Since this second torque is applying a force in the same direction as gravity, it would actually be able to successfully pull the gyroscope down. However, since the wheel and axle are rotating, the second torque is transferred 900 degrees from the vertical plane to the horizontal plane where it can free itself;
This results in an in-plane movement P of the gyroscope without competing with the first torque still occurring in the vertical plane due to the pull of gravity. The direction of this in-plane motion or precession depends on the rotational direction 1%. -1
−, W+”, to be simply expressed as a tiger, any movement that attempts to change the plane of rotation of the gyroscope,
We call the fundamental slope (P, 'I', ) and the resulting first and second torques the fundamental, quadratic response (P, 'I',
and S.

It is called ding (,).

As the rotation of the wheel decreases, the stiffness of the gyroscope also decreases accordingly. This results in an increase in P, T, and thus increased P, R, and S,
R, which is why the gyroscope precesses more rapidly as it begins to fall. vertical propulsion is possible if they can be placed in one of the vehicles and used in such a way that gravity must first overcome their stiffness before gravity can pull the vehicle down. , Similarly, if P, T, , :p, R,.

If the product of and S, R, is motion, this could be the basis of propulsion in the horizontal plane. Gyroscope propulsion is in fact derived from a combination of these two principles.

Having briefly described the theoretical basis of my invention, the following will address the manner and method of accomplishing gyroscopic propulsion.

The S, 几, produced by a gyroscope experiencing only the pull of gravity is relatively weak. S.

In order to increase R6, we must first increase P and T. This can be achieved by subjecting the gyroscope to some circumferential motion, which increases the mass of P, T and thus also P, R, and S, R. There is now a huge S, R, potential, but it is still nothing more than a torsional or rotational torque applied from within to the moving body, and even if gyroscope propulsion is achieved, it will not be possible to overcome these rotational movements. It can only be extracted from use. Horizontal propulsion of the vehicle is derived from three gyroscopes that are rotated at high speed in the vertical plane. This results in P, T, and P, R, occurring in the vertical direction. Therefore, s, n, , will occur at right angles, will apply the rotating snowflakes, and will cause the moving body to rotate horizontally. These (1) I-dynamic torques, including simultaneous horizontal and vertical rotations, must be distributed to the VQ forces of the vehicle in a precise manner. How is this achieved and why? The need for this will be best explained using the provided drawings.

FIG. 3 represents a sphere C. Inside is a second sphere F (second
) is mounted, which has two motors F2 and F3 arranged vertically and with stators attached to the inside of the sphere C for horizontal rotation of the sphere F from within. For reasons explained later, horizontal motors (horizontal motors)
(ntalmotor) F2 and F3 have roles that cannot be rotated in the opposite direction. The three gyroscopes for horizontal propulsion are arranged in a triangular arrangement inside the third sphere G (Fig. 1), and are arranged horizontally using a stator attached to the inside of the sphere F. It is rotated vertically by two motors. With this arrangement it is now possible to rotate the sphere G both horizontally and vertically. Sphere G
The vertical rotation speed of is exactly three times as large as its horizontal rotation speed, so the three internal gyroscopes are essentially vertically The rotation is responsive to the vertical rotation of the greater of the two forces. Each of the three horizontal propulsion gyroscopes has a rotational motion of 60 degrees relative to the previous one.
It is required to extract the torques of their S, R, etc. precise positions within the horizontal circle as they occur at advanced positions. FIG. 9 represents the vehicle viewed from above, with gl indicating the position within the vehicle at which the initial torque and resulting rotation of the gyroscope occurs. This 60° rotation to the right moves the position G along the rotation line d6.
Align them in a line. Now the next gyroscope torque and rotation must occur at -gl. This process is repeated, dragging the moving body in the direction of and along the rotation line d6. The vertical motor (~ = erl-ical motor) that vertically rotates the sphere G and the internal gyroscope does not always align in a line due to the rotational movement of the moving body, and the horizontal rotation of the sphere F that has the sphere G inside. This is because of the strain required to re-align the gyroscope to the correct position.

Figure 13 shows the special gimbal required to give the gyroscope complete two-dimensional free motion, which results in undesirable torques that cause the vehicle to move no matter how complex the motion. The plane of rotation can be maintained without causing the cymbal stoppage that would otherwise be exposed. The three gimbal frames fl, f2. Each of f3 has a magnetic clutch Ma, Mb, Mc, by means of which these frames are individually or selectively secured or unlocked at any location;
This gives complete control over the gyroscope. If necessary, the gyroscope can also be precessed by fixing one frame of the cymbal, which can be combined with appropriate vertical rotation or horizontal rotation to move the gyro in the desired plane of rotation. It will precess the scope.

Finally, all three frames of the gimbal can be simultaneously locked or unlocked to immediately load or remove all the forces of the gyroscope's rotating mass onto vehicle a.

FIG. 7 represents the horizontal propulsion unit seen from the side, showing three gyroscopes G1 to G3 in a sphere G placed 120 DEG apart in a triangular configuration. The sphere G is rotated until G1 is within 15° from the horizontal direction.
It is rotated 90° vertically, at which point the gimbal is locked, and rotated through an additional 30° before the gimbal is unlocked. The resulting horizontal S, R, or torque is diametrically opposed to the horizontal rotation of motors F2 and F3, but since those motors cannot rotate forward or backward, the S of G1.

Ro can represent the effect of rotating the moving body by 30 degrees in the horizontal direction. Figure 8 represents a top view of the horizontal propulsion unit. Vertical motor v, m.

is shown in the position it would be in after a 30° rotational movement of the driver has taken place. The horizontal motor h rotates the sphere G back to the position b shown in Fig. 8.
The role of m- is that a force equal to the total mass of the moving body acts on the simultaneous rotation of motors F2 and F3, so no rotation occurs at all while gyroscope G1 is exerting its rotational torque. do not have. If the torque of gyroscope G1 stops working, then motors F2 and F
3 can play those roles, and the sphere G can be placed at the position (a
) to position w(b) 30° rearrangement. If the cymbal of gyroscope G1 is unlocked after rotating the moving body by 30 degrees, any gyroscope torque will no longer be applied, but the moving body will remain horizontal based on the residual rotational movement. The rotation still continues, thereby achieving the required 60° rotation and by this time g
l is in the correct position scheduled to repeat this process. A complete vertical rotation of the triangular arrangement of gyroscopes imparts six rotational torques to the vehicle that occur at positions corresponding to the intersections of the hexagons. This moving body first makes a complete horizontal rotation, and the distance traveled is basically determined by the circumference of the circle in which the horizontal gyroscope is rotating, but the distance traveled is determined by the diameter of the moving body. We can expect it to cover the same distance. If the vertical and horizontal motors could rotate at high speeds, the horizontal speed of the vehicle would be extremely impressive.

The vertical propulsion of the vehicle is achieved by a large vertically arranged motor with bearings E7 and E8 rigidly connected to the stator E5 and the main shafts C1 and C2 (FIG. 3). It is extracted from three gyroscopes installed in a conformal arrangement inside the ram-shaped El.

The three gyroscopes E2-E4 are equipped with a cymbal device similar to that in FIG.
3. Two frames Z1 and Z2, which in combination with cogs Z4 and Z5, play an important role in the performance of the vehicle to achieve vertical propulsion (Figure 10 is a top view) Figure 11 is a side view). Outer frame Z2, motor Z3, cogs Z4 and Z5 are connected to frame Z2 (two shirts) Z6 and Z7I-,
It has an outer frame of Ginnoil f3 (FIG. 13) supported on the drum E1 and is firmly connected to the inside of the drum E1. Frame Z1 is also disposed on the outer frame of the gimbal (FIG. 13) at right angles to shafts Z6 and Z7. The outer frame of the gimbal and frame Z1 are both similar to each other, except that frame Z1 is in fact a large cog that engages the cog on the rotor of motor Z3 and cogs Z4 and Z5).
Z6 and Z7-hi allow for free vertical rotation. This arrangement rotates the vehicle vertically about Z1, while motor Z3 compensates for changes in position and at the same time maintains the plane of rotation of the gyroscope within the frame Z1.

Figure 6 shows a cutaway view of the entire propulsion unit. @Figure 14 is E
2 has all frames locked, E3 has the f1 frame unlocked to allow horizontal freedom, and E4 has the f1 frame unlocked to allow horizontal freedom.
It is shown how a vertical gyroscope responds to horizontal rotation under different situations in which one frame is released, but also under a downward tilting condition. 15th
The diagram is intended to give a general idea of how the parts of the Z-frame function.

Vertical elevation is now achieved in the following way. The sphere E and the drum E1 are rotated counterclockwise while being horizontally rotated by the three vertically propelled gyroscopes E2-E4 therein. Those gimbal frames f1
The gyroscopes E3 and E4 that unlock the can maintain a plane of rotation with this horizontal degree of freedom, while E2 that locks all three f-frames has its precession in the horizontal P, T, and E2 Torque or S, R, is applied perpendicularly to the moving body, and it receives P, R, which tilts it upward.

Since this tilting acts rather than changing their plane of rotation, this tilting is normally blocked by the gyroscopes E3 and E4, but since the vehicle can rotate around them, gyroscope E2 With the arrangement of (FIGS. 10 and 11) its torque can be exerted unhindered. However, gyroscopes E3 and E4, which have already undergone horizontal rotation, will now also be subjected to a downward force or tilt equal to the total mass of the vehicle and proportional to the pull exerted on it by gravity.

However, since this force acts to change their plane of rotation, gyroscopes E3 and E4 resist this downward tilt and respond to it by precessing in the direction shown in Figure 14. . This means that f
One frame is unlocked to allow horizontal degrees of freedom so that the planes of rotation of the gyroscopes E3 and E4 are constantly rearranged to the angles of Figure 14 with their axes pointing to the center of the moving body. Therefore, it has r+J ability. If now, from E3 and E4, Tari i! The gyroscope E2 in the high position of the direction has its ft frame unlocked and also the jar (.

The frame fx where ``1-'l17''E3 is completely locked
1, a torque would begin to tilt the vehicle upwards, while gyroscopes E2 and E4 would cause the vehicle to rotate around them due to the Z-frame arrangement. Gravity cannot pull down the gyroscope E3, which exerts upward torque on the moving body,
Nor can gyroscopes E2 or E4 be pulled down, so it is now possible to pose an unsolvable problem to gravity. This is because the upward torque exerted by the Gyroscope E3 only causes them to fall along an arc, and gravity first strikes against the stiffness of their gyroscopes before being able to pull them down. You have to win, because it is impossible to do so. Therefore, the vehicle can continuously move upwards by then unlocking frame f1 of gyroscope E3 and then locking frame f1 of gyroscope E4, all repeating the process continuously.

The vertical and horizontal propulsion of the vehicle may be used individually or collectively and can be used for rapid vertical and diagonal ascents and descents, as well as precise and spectacular aerial maneuvers such as stationary levitation. It is also possible to have the moving body perform rapid motion. Additionally, the nature of gyroscopic propulsion is such that it is capable of extremely rapid accelerations, decelerations, and sudden right angle turns, potentially allowing for superior maneuverability and superior flight over modern vehicles. The propulsion of Gyro Sco-7' is due to the kinetic energy of the gyroscope.
It is a unique device that extracts and transmits the propulsion force completely from within, quietly, without contamination, and with a high degree of safety.

The gyroscope propulsion device is installed on the K board () l 4
and G15. In the second sphere F in FIG. is placed horizontally, thereby causing the sphere G to rotate vertically 2
It consists of a sphere G with two vertical moles -v, m. Inside the sphere G, there are three gyroscopes 01 to G3 (
(Fig. 7) are installed 120° apart in a triangular configuration. Each of the gyroscopes 01-G3 has a gimbal (FIG. 13) consisting of three frames f1-f3 that can be locked or unlocked together or individually by a magnetic clutch (not shown). A sphere F (Fig. 2) is arranged vertically inside a third sphere C (Fig. 3) so that it can be rotated horizontally, and the sphere F can be rotated horizontally and determined. Vertical motors - v, m that can prevent forward and reverse rotation when the situation occurs.

It has two horizontal motors h, m, of the same design. Gyroscopes 01-G3 within sphere G are vertically rotated by vertical motors in the directions shown in FIGS. 7 and 8. Each gyroscope is 15
° Once the upper position is reached (Figure 7), the gimbal is locked, thereby causing the vehicle to rotate 30 degrees horizontally (Figure 8) and torquing the gyroscope. The gimbal is then unlocked at 15° below horizontal.

The vertical motors v, m, now occupy position a, and the gyroscope position ()1 (Fig. 8) is located and ft.
Each is rotated by a horizontal motor up to and back. G1 and ft represent the horizontal angle of the gyroscope rather than its vertical angle. The vertical rotation of the sphere G is
Since it is three times larger than the horizontal rotation of sphere F, sphere G will rotate 90 degrees vertically in the time it takes for sphere F to rotate 30 degrees horizontally to synchronize all movements. The vehicle rotates horizontally by an additional 30° for the remaining rotation until the next gyroscope is in the scheduled normal position to repeat the process. By this method, the moving body is continuously rotated by 60 degrees in the horizontal direction by the three gyroscopes in the direction of and along the rotation line d5 (FIG. 9).

The vertical propulsion assembly includes a fourth drum E1 attached to the vertical propulsion assembly.
It consists of a sphere C placed inside a sphere E (Figs. 4 and 5). The sphere C has two vertically disposed shafts c1 and C2 supporting the sphere E by bearings E7 and E8. Sphere E has a large motor whose stator, together with a rotor attached to sphere E, is attached to shaft CI, and sphere E is able to rotate around sphere C in a counterclockwise direction.

Inside the drum E1, there are three gimbals (Fig. 13) each having three frames f1 to f3 that can be firmly locked or unlocked individually or together by a magnetic clutch (not shown). Vertical gyroscopes E2 to E4 are
The players are arranged in a triangular arrangement 12o0 apart. The outer frame f3G1 is supported on two shafts Z6 and Z7 that are connected to a frame Z2 attached to the inside of the drum E1. Also attached to the frame f1 is a large hollow cog Z1 which engages a cog on the rotor shaft of the Z3 motor. Two additional support cogs Z4 and Z5 also engage with the cog Zl. This arrangement rotates the moving body vertically around the frame Zl, while the motor Z3 compensates for the change in position and at the same time rotates the rotation plane of the gyroscope around the frame Zl.
keep within. The sphere E is rotated counterclockwise and the three vertical gyroscopes E2-E in the drum El
4 horizontally and gyroscope E 2 (71) 3
All three units are locked, causing gyroscope E2 to exert an upward torque on the vehicle.

The moving body can rotate around the gyroscopes E3 and E4 by the frames Zl and Z2 and the motor Z3, so the gyroscope E2 tilts the moving body upward and applies the mass of the moving body to the gyroscopes E3 and E4.
Since it acts to change their plane of rotation,
Gyroscopes E3 and E4 resist. Gyroscopes E3 and E4 with unlocked frames fl are now subjected to both horizontal rotation and downward tilt or force, and respond by precession in the direction shown in FIG. 14 (E4). Obtain: Gyroscope E2, which occupies a more vertical position than gyroscopes E3 and E4, has its frame f1 unlocked, but at the same time, gyroscope E3 has opened its f1 frame ml? and immediately,
It begins to exert upward torque on the moving body. In this way, each gyroscope in turn causes some lift on the vehicle, while the other two gyroscopes resist the downward pull of gravity. Achieve ascension or propulsion.

Figures 16 to 18 illustrate a circular vehicle adapted to be driven by a gyroscopic propulsion device as described above and designed to function within a circular disc-shaped outer frame of the vehicle. 1 shows a vehicle consisting of a rotatable internal cabin P;

The movements of this moving body are of a rotational nature derived from its propulsion device, and these rotational movements are powerful, increasing in strength in proportion to the number of rotational movements and the speed with which they occur. In order to avoid these centrifugal forces, which generate centrifugal forces within the vehicle, the occupants located in the cabin P are rotated in the direction opposite to the direction of rotational movement. . At the same time, the combination of roller rotation and rotary motion causes all objects in the rotatable cabin to move in a straight line, as shown in FIG. This arrangement avoids the tremendous forces normally exerted on the occupants of vehicles capable of rapid speeding, deceleration, and sudden right-angle turns, which would never be avoided in vehicles with conventional linear acceleration methods. make it possible to Second, the rotating motion of the vehicle would be versatile as a means of transport without a rotatable cabin; Bring on the movement.

Since the forward motion of the moving body is derived entirely from the rotational movement, the moving body has an angular 11'I velocity, and the centrifugal ()-force is the ratio of the mass to the direction and rate of change of angular velocity. It's resistance, so accept it! I7 must be in the opposite direction to the direction of the applied axial force. Therefore, an object that is co-rotated in a direction opposite to the applied axial force will be affected by any force exerted by the forward acceleration of the moving body.
-It cannot be said that it is subject to force.

FIG. 19 shows the moving body viewed from above. The rotational movement of the driver is derived from its propulsion device. The rotational movement is
This occurs at six intersections g1 to g6 passing through an angle of 60° on the horizontal plane. If the first rotational linkage occurs at gl and no rotation of the cabin P occurs, the motion of the vehicle will move the passenger to position p2, and the centrifugal G- You will receive power. If the rotation of cabin P occurred without a rotational movement in gl, passenger p1 would be subjected to C34"'C' $111stL and a further centrifugal G-force. However, , if the clockwise rotational movement of glO and the counterclockwise rotation of the cabin p occur simultaneously, the passenger p1 is moved along the line of advance p5 to the position p4, and the G- is almost zero.
You will receive power. Gl, which rotates 60° at its center, moves R2 to position g2 of the planned co-movement line p 6 t, repeating this process.

All objects in any part of the cabin p move along a straight line 1). C5 represents only the line along which pl travels.

This moving body consists of a sphere C, shafts C1 and C2, bearings C7 and C8, and a stator C9 (Fig. 16) disposed within a sphere p5 (Fig. 17). Shafts C1 and C2 project through bearings C7 and C8, which are held firmly in bearing grooves P2 and C3.

A stator C9, which is rigidly mounted on the shaft C1, occupies a position within the rotor P4. Cabin P, which has the ability to rotate,

5. A sphere P 5 and a rotatable cabin P fit snugly into a frame Q (Fig. 18) provided with a sphere P 5 and a rotatable cabin P.
It rotates freely around the sphere C and within the frame Q.

20 to 22 show the vehicle of FIGS. 16 to 18 arranged in a thin rotatable skin R. This rotation of the skin allows the vehicle to minimize the tremendous heating effects experienced by conventional aircraft or missiles when traveling at high supersonic speeds. The aerodynamic shape of the disk means that there are no protrusions that could disrupt the airflow around the vehicle that could cause obstructions, and the distal edge of the vehicle is in constant motion due to its rotation. The normal compression of air in a shock wave, which produces adiabatic heat generation, is highly desirable in that it can only act on the same surface area of a moving body for a short period of time. The exposure time to the adiabatic heating effect is
It will be determined by the rotation speed of the skin. Conventional jet or missile designs and propulsion systems make it impossible to rotate the entire surface area of the vehicle; this ease is advantageous to vehicles with a circular disc shape and fully internal propulsion system. It can only be applied to

The protrusions fit into the bearing grooves R3 and R4. The completed unit functions like a large two-end mounted motor, driving the skin R in a clockwise direction.

In another embodiment, the horizontal propulsion gyroscopes Gl, G2, G3 are arranged such that their gyro hoops ai vertically upward through a central horizontal plane passing through the propulsion unit after each rotational movement of the vehicle. When the gyroscope is locked, each gimbal assembly is re-arranged and stuttered using one "reverse thrust pulse" pulled out by the gyroscope. This further locking of each gimbal assembly produces a reverse thrust pulse that causes the sphere to F, G and the gyroscopes therein are rotated counterclockwise as shown in Figure 8. Thus, in this embodiment, the gyroscopes themselves are required to accomplish their required realignment. used for.

Claims (1)

[Scope of Claims] 1. At least three gyroscopes, each of which is arranged so as to freely rotate around one rotational axis at equiangularly spaced positions; means for rotating the gyroscope about the axis, in use, when the gyroscope rotates about the axis;
said free rotary movement in order to cause each gyroscope to precess and thereby produce a precessional torque for propelling the vehicle in which the device is in use; means for selectively locking each gyroscope against and in use to compensate for their rotation due to the respective precession-coupled torque impulses caused by sequentially locking the individual gyroscope assemblies; A propulsion device characterized in that it consists of means allowing for the rearrangement of the axes. 2. at least three gyroscopes each disposed at equiangularly spaced positions for free rotational movement about one axis of rotation; means for rotating, in use, when the gyroscope rotates about the axis;
said free rotary movement in order to cause each gyroscope to precess and thereby produce a precessional torque for propelling the vehicle in which the device is in use; means for selectively locking each gyroscope to the an annular passenger cabin rotatably disposed around the propulsion device, comprising means for allowing the reorientation of the axis of rotation; A moving body characterized by incorporating means for rotating in a direction. 3. Vehicle according to claim 2, further comprising a hollow outer container enclosing the passenger cabin and fixed with respect to the support structure or propulsion unit. 4. The assembly of the propulsion device, if provided, a hollow circle enclosing and rotatably disposed above the annular cabin, the outer vessel and the means for rotating the shell members; 4. The vehicle according to claim 3, further comprising a plate-like outer panel member.
