  • Patent number: 8373368
    Abstract: An energy storage device having a variable momentum of inertia uses centrifugal forces acting on movable masses to self adjust its moment of inertia. The adjustment of the moment of inertia occurs without any additional energy input. Energy is stored as rotational kinetic energy and potential elastic and/or gravitational energy.
