Will you be uploading the first vid? Like to see the tear down. I'll be heading back to the shed. Looks like I won't be going fishing this weekend.

Thanks mate.

Good day Jim

I have included the most recent series (v.2 and v.3) of TinMan's Rotary transformer video on the first page. Have a look. I think the one you would like to see (tear down) is the last one.

Here is the video to test the motor for the RT.
There was another part to the video-the first part showing the motor in pieces,but the two together was just to long-so here is the second half.

Dear Brad.

In your video, link posted above, you mention two important things.

You say you have " tipped the brushes " . What do you mean exactly, by tipped ?

You also mention " brush timing. " Have you altered the brushgear position in relation to the Field coil ?

I have now got a pile of dead vacuum cleaners on the yard but can't for the life me see the effect you demonstrated in video 3 !!   ;)

Cheers Grum.

Dear All.

Short and sweet.

Possibly pertinent ?  http://www.climtechsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/library/Lindemann/ElectricMotorSecrets2-Lindemann.pdf

And finally, Brad, did you or did you not, employ the use of N52 strength PM's in your Rotary Transformer ?

Cheers Grum.

It works for me mate!

I'll add the pdf at the bottom of the first page. You can download it there.

Luc

ADDED: Sorry mate, says the file is too large. max allowed is 5mb and the file is 5.47
              I'll see if I can find something else for you.

This is a wonderful technical document, but just look at the screen shots towards the end of the pdf:

Here is the video to test the motor for the RT...
Looks good. Big fan of your work tinman. Is there a first part to this thread somewhere to help me get up to speed on the build?

Please wait and give TinMan the time he needs to provide more details.
We don't want another visit from the wicked witch do we.
The first page of this topic will be updated as soon as the new details are provided.
Please let me know if that has not been clearly written on the first page and if so, make your suggestion of how it should be written.

Regards

Luc
Sorry about that. I see the info now. I don't want a visit from the witch so I'll wait  8)

oops our Dyson broke. Happy to say that this universal motor spins up nicely without the stator coils connected. Like Grums it tends to wander all over the place with rpms. I performed the charging a load test with the diodes as shown in Brad's last vid. It was difficult to know whether the charging was affecting the rpms or if it was just the idiosyncrasies of the motor itself.  Just for giggles I put the other stator coil across a reed and stuck a small mag on the spindle. It definitely sped up then.

Before we go any further,i need to once again make it clear that i will not,and cannot disclose the full details of the RT--> i think i made this point very clear in the partnered coil thread.

What i am going to do is try(!!try!!)and show that PM's(permanent magnets) can do useful work,and how they do it. From there on,how you apply that knowledge is up to each person here.
I will be doing this in way of the solid state transformer version as Luc has posted diagrams of in the first page of this thread.
I am hoping that Luc will join me on this build,and the testing to go with it,as it is based around one of his test bed's he built some time ago,showing how little electrical power is required to divert the flux path of PM's. Anyone else that would like to go down the S/S path are also welcome to join in on the build. Using the principle the RT is based around,i believe we can make the S/S version work.
This time i(and i hope others)will be posting videos and details on each step of the build,so as in the event that success is had,then it will be all to late for anyone to do anything about it.

@ Jim
The first part of the last video will be up in about 30 minutes.

Dear Brad.

Many thanks for the video. It has cleared up the term " tipping. " So, by tipping you are actually altering the angle of the brush gear in relation to the commutator segments. And, correct me if I'm wrong, bringing in an extra armature coil?

I would like to pursue the Rotary transformer myself as I have always had a fascination with things that rotate !!  ;)

Cheers Grum.
