  • Publication number: 20190084695
    Abstract: A system for propelling craft which is applicable in any environment. It employs alternating electric fields supplied by a multi-layer capacitor to create an alternating magnetic field. A coil is situated so that the magnetic field interacts with the current elements in the coil. The capacitor is charged and discharged in synchronization with the alternating current in the coil. The changing electric fields in the capacitor create a magnetic field that applies a force to the current elements in the coil which is then transferred to the body of the device. Any reactive force from the magnetic field of the coil is negated since the gaps in the capacitor have no current elements with which the magnetic field of the coil can interact. Therefore the device is propelled in a single direction.

  • Publication number: 20190081545
    Abstract: A system for propelling craft which is applicable in any environment. It employs an alternating electric field supplied by capacitors to create an alternating magnetic field. A coil is situated so that the magnetic field(s) interact with various current elements created by the coil. The capacitors are charged and discharged in synchronization with the alternating current in the coil. The changing electric fields in the capacitors create magnetic fields that apply a force to the current elements in the coil which is then transferred to the body of the device. Any reactive force from the magnetic field of the coil is negated since the gaps in the capacitors have no current elements with which the magnetic field of the coil can interact. Therefore the device is propelled in a single direction.

  • Patent number: 9712031
    Abstract: A system for propelling craft which is applicable in any environment. It employs an alternating magnetic field supplied by a coil. A parallel plate capacitor is situated so that the flux of the magnetic field flows between the plates of the capacitor. The capacitor is charged and discharged in synchronization with the alternating magnetic field. The changing magnetic field creates an electric field that applies a force to the charge in the plates which is then transferred to the body of the device. Any induced reactive electric force on the coil affects equally the protons and electrons in the wires of the coil creating the magnetic field, thus the force is non-reactive. At the same time, the changing electric field in the capacitor creates a magnetic field. The current in the coils and/or the surface current in the ferromagnetic material (if present) experiences a force from the magnetic field.
