  • Patent number: 5254966
    Abstract: A spinning magnetic device includes a rotor which may have a capsule for an occupant. The rotor has a number of rotor magnets circularly deployed about its perimeter, all having their dipole axes tangentially directed and all aligned clockwise or counter clockwise. Just outside the circle of magnets is a second, concentric circle of stator magnets. These have their dipole axes radially aligned toward the center of the circles and all directed inward or outward. The number of stator magnets is a multiple of the number of rotor magnets. The rotor magnets are disposed in equal angular separations about the center, as are the stator magnets. The device, when set spinning, experiences perturbations in the rotational speed.
