Possible Driver Mechanism for the weights
« on: February 22, 2011, 01:21:37 AM »
Below is a diagram of a large wooden wheel and within this wheel is a not to heavy fly wheel. The fly wheel is free from the main wheel, however, the fly wheel does have a connection via the fly wheels arm to the bottom weighted lever which pivots on the main wheel. Both weights cause both wheels to rotate together (clockwise) acclerating down to 6 o clock. Then, as the weights start to climb up, the main wheel with the fixed rim weight starts to slow down as it gets higher but the fly wheel continues to rotate at a steady speed due to its independance. This causes the fly wheel to then pull the weighted lever further out creating a stronger over balance causing both wheels to then rotate in the opposite direction. When the weights climb up the opposite side, the opposite happens and the weighted lever is pushed in. Now i'm not saying it will perpetuate but it may be a principal in which a way to shift weights may be achived to perpetuate a wheel? The fly wheel could be the driving force to shift the weights without slowing or burndening the other weights if an idependance is retained.

 I am afraid you are going to have a double effect. Each time you get a positive jar movement it will then become a negative one. I have played with what I call kicker flywheels and they have this double effect.

 Greetings Alex

 As the fly wheel start its action it gives a forward kick but at that time it becomes slower than the wheel it kicked and then it causes a negative kick on reset. This tends to negate what you achieved by reset action.

 Note- this does not mean the idea is bad either. There is some work to do and test from this type of approach. I only stopped due to better ideas. Of course IMO as for better.  ;)

Well like you say that can be looked at, however the problem is the fly wheel will be difficult to get moving if its to heavy meaning loss of momentum...
