  • Spin-stabilized magnetic levitation without vertical axis of rotation
    Patent number: 7545065
    Abstract: The symmetry properties of a magnetic levitation arrangement are exploited to produce spin-stabilized magnetic levitation without aligning the rotational axis of the rotor with the direction of the force of gravity. The rotation of the rotor stabilizes perturbations directed parallel to the rotational axis.
