Abstract: An electromagnetic motor employing plural rotors is provided, with each rotor exhibiting a permanent magnetic field. A control module selectively induces magnetic fields in electromagnetic pads surrounding each of the rotors. Through the interaction of the permanent and induced magnetic fields, the rotors can turn. As a result, a shaft mechanically engaging the rotors also turns to provide mechanical power. In response to the shaft rotation, an alternator generates sufficient electrical power to sustain the operation of the control module without an external power source. The magnetic polarities of the induced magnetic fields can be reversed, thus causing the rotors to continue turning. In various applications, the motor can be installed in a vehicle or in a building power supply as desired.
