Field and Background of the Invention

[002] This is invention relates to an electric device or generator. More particularly, the invention relates to an electric device or generator which utilizes magnets which are sandwiched by one or more selected layers of metals. The configuration and construction of the electric device or generator of the invention may produce a flow of mass particles, which can be controlled and harnessed, and whereby a charge flow is setup within the system which can be utilized for the extraction of power or energy to form the electric generator of the invention. Summary of the Invention

[003] According to one aspect of the invention, there is provided an electric device or generator comprising: a substantially fiat magnet having a series of alternating or varying north and south polarities, or even just one directional north south, the magnet having an upper surface, a lower surface and opposing edges; a first metal plate formed on the upper surface of the magnet; a second metal plate formed on the lower surface of the magnet; and a pair of wires connected to one of the first or second metal plates and any point at the edge of the magnet, the pair of wires capturing energy or power produced by the electric generator.

[004] Preferably, the first metal plate is comprised of aluminum foil, and the second metal plate is comprised of aluminum foil.

[005] An additional metal plate may be mounted over either of the first or second metal plates. The additional metal plate may be comprised of copper.

[006] In one embodiment, the magnet comprises a series portions of alternating north and south polarities. One of the pair of wires may be connected to the first metal plate and the other of the pair of wires may be connected to a metal rod extending from an edge of the magnet or directly to the magnet or a metal plate thereof. Any point on the edge of the magnet may produce different amounts of electricity which may not be related to that of the other edge points of the magnet.

[007] Additionally, a diode may optionally be provided in the wire extending from an edge of the magnet. A plurality of such electric devices may be connected to each other, either in series, in parallel, or a combination thereof.

[008] In one embodiment, the thickness of the magnet is approximately 1/16 inches. Further, the magnet may have dimensions which are approximately 1" x 1" x .0505". [009] In another form of the invention, a film is provided between the copper layer and either the first metal plate or second metal plate to reduce deterioration of the metals.

[010] According to a further aspect of the invention, there is provided a method of generating electricity comprising: providing a substantially fiat magnet having alternating north and south polarities, the magnet having upper and lower surfaces; placing and aluminum layer over both the upper and lower surfaces of the magnet; placing an additional metal layer over at least one of the upper or lower surfaces to cover the aluminum layer; and capturing power or energy generated by the system by connecting wires across the electric generator.

[011] Preferably, the additional metal layer is copper. A diode may be located in the wires to facilitate an increase in the amount of direct voltage and amperage generated by the system. Further, a plurality of such magnets may be joined in series, in parallel, or a combination of both. [012] Some background definitions and theories are set forth which may possibly help explain the electric generator of the present invention.

A. Energy:

[013] Energy is mass in motion (E= 1/2M x V²).

B. Mass Particles:

[014] Mass particles are the smallest particles that are contained in our universe. The spatial size of a mass particle is three-dimensional. The volume of space a particle possesses is yet to be measured, but for the purposes of this description it is proposed to be finite and specific. The mass particle may have close to zero volume, although a mass particle may never in fact attain zero volume. C. Charge:

[015] Charge maybe considered as comprising clusters of small mass particles in size that may move within wires.

D. Magnetic field (storm):

[016] The directional movement of mass with respect to other mass in a counter parallel direction produces what we call the electromagnetic forces. The charge propagated down the current is the electric charge. The force that forms outside of the movement of charge, that is perpendicular to the direction of the flow of charge, is the magnetic field. The magnetic energy field that surrounds the directional current of electric charge is in fact mass particles in motion. These mass particles are much smaller than the particles of quarks, electrons or protons. Our technology permits us to detect the presence of particles up to a certain size.

[017] E. Electrons do not move from one atom to another. Atomic clouds that surround atoms move from one atom to another one. Movement of the atomic clouds (mass particles) produce energy that can become electricity. The property and density of clouds dictate the shape of the material. With a change in temperature, density of the atomic clouds surrounding each atom will be reduced or increased. Therefore, material shapes change from vapor to liquid and to solid or the reverse thereof. [018] The magnetic storm has the ability to move atomic clouds (mass particles) from one atom to another. Reduction or excess of atomic clouds around an atom will make the atom unstable in the substance, and therefore atoms will try to balance their fields, and with that, the motion of atomic clouds (mass particle) will be detected in the field. The differential of mass clouds within atoms to atoms or substance to substance produce electricity. [019] The generator of the invention disclosed herein preferably utilizes and capitalizes on the description set forth above.

[020] The nature of a magnet is to provide directional movement of mass particles in the space field. This directional movement will affect any atoms that are located nearby, even though that might not be noticeable. The first effect is that the atomic clouds surrounding atoms will be disturbed, by either being moved from the atomic field, or by some more masses being added to the field. Atomic clouds (mass particles) that are attacked by this storm will move in the space in the same direction as that of the magnetic field. The stability of the shape of any atoms in a cluster as a substance mainly depend on the amount of clouds surrounding them. The thickness and concentration of the masses in the clouds will determine and dictate the substance shape. Therefore, atoms immediately try to fill the lost clouds by absorbing any particles existing in the surrounding field or other fields. These movements of mass particles in the field, by the definition of charge (see above), are considered to act as charge and provide voltage in the system.

[021] The electric device or generator of the present invention may be made from two (2) aluminum Foils (aluminum No. 1 and aluminum No. 2), but also any other suitable metals in the table of elements that contains the fewest atoms (Si may be one of several such example) can be used in place of the aluminum foils. The aluminum or other metal foils are attached on both sides of a ferrite magnet. A filter maybe used to not have a direct contact between the magnet and the aluminum foils. One embodiment utilizes arubber magnet of about 1/16" width or thickness with an alternating 2mm interval between north and south and having north south portions connected to each other in an alternating fashion, as shown in the drawings to be described below. Another embodiment of the invention is the magnetizing of a silicon plate with neodymium, AINiCo, NdFeB, or ferrite powder and may have various magnetic powder coatings.

[022] The applying of the coating to silicon may comprise different methods. One is the by implementation of magnetic metals directly on the silicon, and the film is preferably very thin and produces very low magnetic field. The other is by making the surface of silicon rough and then implementing the magnetic metals. This method of implementation produced a thicker coating and gave a better magnetic field. A third method was implementing titanic metal or similar on the silicon and then implementing the magnetic metals. The result may be better than other embodiments. Also, it is possible to mix silicon with magnetic material similar to that of a rubber magnet.

[023] In the use of a rubber magnet with one side magnetized, the rubber is considered as a filter for that side. This also applies to the silicon plate. On this sample, a single pole magnet was used without N-S alternating. This sample also generated electricity almost as well as other samples with alternating N-S (see Fig 5). Applying pressure into the system increases both voltage and amperage.

[024] The thickness of the magnet and/or the metal as well as the strength of magnet, and the interval between the north and the south poles, has a large effect on the magnetite and on the voltage and the amperage of the system. Also, applying titanium on the silicon which may occur prior to the powder coating resulted in an increase of amperage of about 10% to 15%. Furthermore, the strength and thickness of metals may have a similar effect. The storm of mass particles produced by a magnet will move mass particles within atomic clouds from the Aluminum (1) foil layer to the Aluminum (2) foil layer. This movement of masses starts the flow of mass particles in the system. After a few seconds, the flow will be mostly from the magnet to the Aluminum (2) foil layer.

[025] This movement of mass particles can be stopped or substantially reduced from exiting from the field by adding another metal from the table of elements with a higher group of atoms, attached to the stronger magnetized side (if one side is stronger), of the magnet over the Aluminum 1 (see Fig. 1). One option used for the additional metal layer is that of an approximately 5/264" Copper layer. Another option used for the additional metal layer is that of an approximately 0.027" Copper layer. Variations in the thickness of such layer all within the scope of this invention. Elements in a higher group in the Table of Elements may be better elements to be used for the reduction of number of particles exiting the field. One example may comprise the use of lead (Pb). The use of rubber magnets that have North South alternating next to each other, may bring the highest storm within the field. As the distance between the north and south polarities of the magnet decreases, efficiency and output of the system may increase.

[026] Connecting wires to the copper, and the second end of the wire to the neutral side of magnet, such as by attaching a metal to the side of the magnet which is the non-magnetized edge of the magnet that is neither north or south), will produce a differential in charge (mass particles). Charges will flow within the system and this produces electricity. Because of north- south (N,S,N,S, as seen in the drawing) arrangement relative to each other in the magnet, the storm increases the flow. The voltage of the system has some differential depending on which natural side of magnet may be used for the second wire application. In the case of silicon and a single pole the wire should be connected to the aluminum side and edge or surface of the magnet. [027] In one embodiment, a diode may be installed in the system that reduces the two directional movements of charges inside the wire, and this will help to increase the amount of voltage and amperage in the system.

[028] In one embodiment of the invention, the voltage obtained from each cell with Aluminum foil, with an overall dimension of 1" X 1" X .0505", is over 620 mil. volts DC and also at the same time measured around 2 mil. volts of AC. In another embodiment of the invention, the voltage obtained from each cell with Aluminum foil, with an overall dimension of 1" X 1" X .11", is over 390 mil. volts DC and also at the same time measured around 50 mil. volts of AC.

[029] In yet another embodiment, made out of cells of Aluminum plates 1 and 2 with an Aluminum thickness of approximately 1/16" and two layers of copper with the same thickness and the same magnet, the voltage of this system was around 390 mil. volts, and the voltage of the AC was almost the same. The Amperage of the system with Aluminum foil was much larger in number than that of the metal plates.

[030] As the distance between the north and south of the magnet deceases, efficiency and output of the system may increase. Connecting a wire along any neutral edge may produce more amperage. If a wire is connected to each three other sides of the neutral of the rubber magnet, and connected to each other, the amperage will be increased by or according the number of the neutral sides that we are adding wires. By connecting the wire and adding another side to the magnet neutral, the amperage of the system may be doubled. If one more side is added to the neutral wire the amperage may be tripled and the same may be so for the fourth side. Further, as the model gets larger or smaller in thickness and sizes, there may not be much of a change in output voltage. The smallest model in accordance with one embodiment of the invention was ½" x ½" x .189" and the voltage detected was almost the same as some of the other ones described above, indicating that the size could be smaller with the same or similar output and with probably more amperage as the larger size. Also, it has been observed that each edge of the system may have separate voltage and amperage. Therefore, from each side energy can be released separately. This may only apply in the case of the rubber magnet and when silicon is mixed with the magnet. For the embodiment utilizing implementation of magnetic metal to silicon, the edge or the surface may be the same. By removing the Aluminum 1 from the system, the same voltage may be obtained, but it may take longer a time for the voltage to appear in the system.

[031] With reference to Fig. 5, contingent on how the magnetization is created and behaving, the wire connecting to the copper may also be connected to the aluminum foil 2. Applying film between the copper and Aluminum 2 will reduce deterioration of both metals (Fig 1).

[032] This generator has been tested by applying loads for periods of weeks, but the voltage did not drop after removing the loads. In addition, after shorting wires for periods of days, or even months, upon removal of shortage, the same voltage was measured and the flow of electricity started as normal. The life of the first built generator may be over 18 months and indicates that as time passes the amperage of the system increases the same or more output of voltage is being obtained. The life of the generator maybe over 48 months, in one embodiment. The tests showed that the system is generating electricity constantly. The estimated life may be influenced by the deterioration of the metals, or magnet becoming weaker. [033] In order to increase voltage, the cells may be connected in series. In order to increase amperage, they may be connected in parallel (see Figs. 2 and 3). To obtain best results, the cells may be connected in parallel, connecting all Aluminum cells together as shown in Figs. 4 or 6. The number of cells can be connected in parallel or in a series; after a certain number of cells, connection should preferably be done through diodes.

[034] Another embodiment in accordance with the present invention comprises one having dimensions of approximately 1/4" x 1/4", and it was found that the amperage dropped, possibly because the north south magnet was not provided for in that model. Each north or south of the magnet approximately .20" and .25" of model will not cover one cycle. The same experiment has been done with a ceramic Ferrite magnet, and the voltage was the same, but it took more time until voltage appears into the system. Further, the amperage was less than the other models.

[035] In a further embodiment, the voltage obtained from each cell with Aluminum foil, with an overall dimension of 1" X 1" X 0.0505" is over 520 mil. volts DC and also at the same time around 2 mil. volts of AC were measured. Another embodiment was comprised of cells of aluminum plates 1 and 2 with an aluminum thickness of 1/16" and two layers of copper with the same thickness and the same magnet. Almost the same voltage came out of this cell, but the AC voltage from the system was, however, the same as DC voltage (520 mil. Volt). The Amperage of the system with aluminum foil was much bigger in number than the metal plates. Connecting a wire along the edge or another suitable location may produce more amperage. Connecting the wire and further adding another side to the magnet neutral, the amperage of the system will be doubled. If one more side is added to the neutral wire the amperage may be tripled and the same for the fourth side. Also, it is noted that as the model gets larger or smaller in thickness and sizes, there will be not much of a change in output voltage. The smallest model made was ½" x ½" x .189", and the voltage was almost the same as the other ones described, indicating that the size could well be smaller with the same output with probably more amperage than the larger size. [036] Applying a film between the Aluminum (2) foil layer and the copper layer may reduce deterioration of the metals.

[037] The use of diodes will reduce the voltage of a system by approximately .7 V. By adding a diode to the system of one cell unit, the voltage of the system did not drop. The voltage maintained in the system is mostly due to converting portion of AC voltage to DC. Therefore if a diode added to the system of several cells, the voltage of the system will be much more than 400 mil. Volt multiplied by the number of cells. See Figure 2 of the drawings.

[038] The electric generator of the present invention has been tested by applying loads for period of weeks, but the voltage did not drop after removing the loads. Also after shorting wires for a period of days the same voltage has been measured. The life of the first built generator was over 18 months, and potentially over 24 months, with the same or more output of voltage being obtained. The life of this generator may be over 36 months, or even as much as 48 months. These tests showed that the system is generating electricity constantly. The estimated life could be related on the deterioration of the metals, or as a result of the magnet becoming weaker.

[039] In order to increase voltage, or Amperage of these cells, they act like a battery. To increase voltage the cells should be connected in series and to increase amperage in parallel. The number of cells can be connected in parallel or in series, and after a certain number of cells the connection should be effected through diodes.

[047] In Figure 1 of the drawings, there is shown an electric generator component 10 generally comprised of a substantially fiat magnet 12 having an alternating series of North and South polarities. The magnet 12 has a lower surface to which is attached a first aluminum foil strip layer 14, and an upper surface to which is attached a second aluminum foil strip layer 16. The magnet itself in the embodiment illustrated in this figure is approximately 15/256 inch thickness, one of the invention is not limited to such a thickness, and magnets of varying thickness according to the needs and parameters of the system may be used. Further, the magnet 12 is a rubber magnet, and may be flexible.

[048] A copper plate layer 18 is mounted over the second aluminum foil strip layer 16. A terminal 20 extends from an image of the magnet 16, and a wire 22 is connected thereto. The wire 22 may include a diode 24. A further wire 26 is connected to the copper plate 18. The wires are used to harness the power and energy generated by the electric generator of the present invention. [049] As shown in Figure 2 of the drawings, a series of electric generators, which may be of the type illustrated in Figure 1 of the drawings, or differently configured electric generators having different thicknesses and dimensions, maybe connected together. Figure 2 shows a series of four electric generators connected together, to exemplify the arrangement, but the invention is not limited to this number and any suitable number of electric generators may be joined. Figure 2 of the drawings shows, separately, four electric generators which are joined in series, and four electric generators joined in parallel, each arrangement being optimal for generating voltage or amperage, as discussed above.

As will be noted, the north polarity of each magnet is above and below the north polarity of an adjacent magnet, and the same applies to the south polarities. A copper plate 42 connects the side of the magnets 40. Further, a copperplate 44 is mounted on the top magnet in the stack. Aluminum foils are also provided, and extend between each one of the magnets in the stack, as well as on one side of the stack. The aluminum foils are also located below the lowest rubber magnet 40, and between the top rubber magnet 40 and the copper plate 42. The embodiment of the invention illustrated in this figure of the drawings may be connected as described with reference to other embodiments of the invention above. It is to be noted that, while five stacks of rubber magnets 40 are shown in Figure 4 of the drawings, other numbers of stacked magnets can be used. In addition, each rubber magnet in the stack need not be of identical length. Further, the aluminum foils may be located between or adjacent the magnets in other different configurations. The copper plate 42 may also be attached in a different location.
