FIGUERA'S AETHER MAGNETIC FIELDS LINEAR PUMP, REVIVED

[Art Z.]

Hello team. 

I hope this diagram will make it clearer to see how we are powering the groups. We might not need the diodes since not connected groups are not closing any loops and there are no short circuits. (please correct me if I'm not seeing an error). Red group is on rest are off, blue group is on rest are off and so on then backwards. The only problem for me is to power up the groups individually using electronics and I think Mr. Ufo's latest commutator will make this thing work. Note, common ground will not work, it might or will create short circuits.

Hello dear friend Ufopolitics,

Hello dear friend Kampen,

I am following your work on the mechanical commutator with great interest.
This is a very ambitious and worthwhile project.
I believe it can succeed with careful mechanical and electrical execution.

You are currently developing a **scaled CAD design for a bipolar rotary commutator**, using real copper tubing and centrifugal-assisted radial brushes.
Your focus has been on practical build considerations such as brush pressure vs RPM, material selection, segment geometry, and reliable bipolar sequencing for inductive loads.

There is not much difference on my design, as this was the exact original 'main method' utilized by Figuera back on 1908 Patent, related to the driver for his coils...as his Brush-Commutator also ran within a cylindrical segmented copper contacts, and the brush ran from inside out of such cylinder....exactly the same way I am doing here.

The only difference from that original design, is that I am incorporating a negative brush also in unison with the positive one.
His Negative source was fixed to the circuit and only the Positive brush ran within the cylindrical commutator.

According to his method of having the negative 'fixed'... I have concluded, based on thousand of hours in building and testing that took many years...that this simple diagram he presented on patent, was just a "basic fundament" to protect his real design.

Having the Negative fixed does NOT work -nor make any sense- on reality, to "expand" the Field, while loosing its strength (by gaining resistance, therefore decreasing currents)...while gaining strength when Field was contracted or compressed.

Again, thousands and thousands of people around the world (including myself) tried to follow his original patent design, "exactly" as he exposed it....and it never worked.

Even on this early Topic, I was still trying his exact original method...like 'Method 2" here...and  yes, the voltage increases very high related to input voltage.

But the drop voltage, once secondaries are loaded, output had a huge drop.

There is only one reason for this failure.

The Inducing Field is NOT strong enough, period.

Over all my years developing this Figuera method I have built several different types of commutating rotary drivers...including using negative and positive brushes, BUT, within the same plane...it did not work either, because using this  method, the field collapses and reverses...same error, huge voltage drop at output.

Because of that, I can assist you to **share calculations, design insights, or practical recommendations** that could help strengthen your implementation and avoid common mechanical or commutation pitfalls (arcing, brush wear, sequencing errors, etc.).

My interest is simply to help the project move forward successfully and to contribute constructively where I can.

If you are open to it,
I can help to exchange ideas, drawings, or test observations.

I am confident it can be made to work with the right mechanical details in place.

Regards, Alex

Of course my friend that I am open to any new ideas as new improvements!!

Also to discuss any possible errors I may have on this design building, counseling etc.

So you are always welcome to help, my dear friend!!

There is a very enlightening old 'ancient' proverb from a greek philosopher...: "I only know, that I know nothing..."

And I practice and apply myself that old proverb everytime, on everything I do.

Hello team.

I hope this diagram will make it clearer to see how we are powering the groups. We might not need the diodes since not connected groups are not closing any loops and there are no short circuits. (please correct me if I'm not seeing an error). Red group is on rest are off, blue group is on rest are off and so on then backwards.

Hello dear friend @Art Z.

I have already Tested your connection shown above...with Kampen Driver.

It does NOT work.

Kampen driver does NOT accept to drive circuits that are connected in between, in series, in this case ALL the Sequential Coils.

Kampen Circuit ONLY drives Coils Independently, or in Parallel, whether Single Coil or Groups of Coils. Then we would be COLLAPSING the Field on EVERY Switching Mutation  from one Coil or Group to another.

I have tried these methods in the past...they simply DO NOT Work...Plus we get HUGE Spikes, (Commutator Spark/Arcing Gallore) depending on  the type of setup resistance we would be running.

Here are my previous tests diagrams...very similar to what you have uploaded:

Now, Kampen Driver Circuit can also work on separate Sources, or independently PFET Bank from NFET Bank...meaning, we can feed the NFET with a fixed Positive Source, as we can feed also the PFET with the Negative fixed source, without the need to apply Input Sources to neither FET Boards...so, I also tried this way (see below image):

As NONE of them above circuits worked.

Kampen Driver is designed ONLY to drive Coils or Groups in PARALLEL (INDEPENDENT from eact other's, and yes, we get output...higher in Voltage, but weak on Amps, so the Voltage Drop is GALLORE.
Plus -the fact- we will have HUGE Coils or Groups REVERSED Voltage Spikes, everytime we switch from one coil or group to another...so, additionally we will also need ALL kind of "protecting circuits" to "try" to "deviate" all these reversed huge spikes through "flyback or flywheeler" diodes, or any other ways we could find and design etc, etc...to protect Electronics.

On a System, that simply will NOT WORK....it is a completely waste of time.

From my 'Method 2' on this Topic, I have started to Pulse Coils that are in SERIES (through the Commutator Rotary Switch I built)...NEVER in PARALLEL.

I mean, I have also tried in Parallel Coils...not successfully, because of same reasons explained below:

On PARALLEL Connected Circuits the Resistance decreases to MINIMAL LEVELS, as the more Coils or Groups you add, the more the resistance decreases.

So, the Amperage, or Currents would be simply 'Sky High'...and so the Reverse Spikes.

Plus the Field will keep Collapsing and Restarting on every Parallel Connected Coil or Group switching...

Simply NOT GOOD!!, Not even an Option to Consider here.

This is the  simple reason why I had to get back to Mechanical Commutation Switching, which honestly, I shoud have NEVER abandon, no matter if we get an Electronic Driver that works...WHY?...because IF We have a Driver that simply works 'as  desired' we should never, ever, give it up, period.

These Dual or Bipolar Commutator WILL WORK, simple  as  that!...as the sikes, if we get any, would be very minimal, just because it is just One Coil of each Group, that we will be turning off, NOT the whole Group!

I consulted with Kampen -throughemails- about these tested circuits with diodes...as He explained in detail as of why it will never work, from the electronic point of view...that is way more knowledgeable than mine, since He was who designed it...

But thanks for your proposal, it was great thinking!!...I have just tried them all, after I had these failures driving the coils and bulbs in series...

Hello All,

As well as this System could also run, or be driven by a LINEAR SERIES Switching Commutator, in the exact same way as the rotary...

Driven by a LINEAR FAST (3600 Strokes Per Minute) RECIPROCATING Motor...and for "buying on line" a type of linear motor or solenoid that the arm extends long enough, at that speed ...unfortunately, they are not available.

The fastest reciprocating motor or solenoid you can get, only goes at 120 Strokes per minute...

...And if you are able to find it...(which I doubt it,  with the spec's we need) it will be a huge monster (in size and weight) like for a CNC Machine or Automation Industry...and it will cost a "Fortune"...

And yes, these Linear Motors also work with AC Drivers...and Brushless types...but then they will need specific positioning sensors, plus all  the electronic drivers to operate them (not feasible)
And yes, I know we can also convert -mechanically- a Rotary Motor into a Linear Reciprocating Action by a Transfer Mechanism...lot of work also...

Believe me, I have done all the research on this...before I started -again- the Rotary Dual Polarity Commutator...I wanted to just build a hand operated Linear Switch...to demonstrate it does works...even moving it by hand.

But building a linear switch to just move by hand for a demo video, also was too much time that would be taken away from a device I know for sure it will work...The Rotary Switching Comm.

I can also build a very fast Linear and Reciprocating Motor...and also run it with Kampen Driver...and permanent Magnets on the moving part...or reciprocating  shaft...

But I will have to build from scratch everything, mainly the Stator...in Laminated Steel...for the windings to be wound and connected to Kampen's Driver...and it will go very, very fast.

But it will take too much time to make all this build from scratch, compared with putting together a Rotary Build.

Believe me all, when I took this decision to make the Dual Polarity Mechanical Switch...as Figuera had originally conceived since the 1900's...it is simply because it will work as get built much faster.

Maybe after I  test successfully the Rotary Switch... ...I will get involved in building a nice Linear Electronic Driver Assembly and Switch Assembly..it will be very nice and 'Elegant'...as we can insert it (mount it) along the Steel Core Length...it will look awesome!!...and very "different"

But, please...I do NOT want to start a discussion about Linear Drivers and 'possibilities' here...at least not now!!.

Dear Mr.Ufo, basically we are looking for the movement shown in the video attached. If it looks right, I will work in that direction if not please just delete it, so the page is not overwhelmed by unnecessary posts. Thanks!
