  • High efficiency electro-mechanical energy conversion device
    Patent number: 6013963
    Abstract: An Electro-Mechanical Energy Conversion (EMEC) device and a method of electro-magnetically converting electrical energy to mechanical energy and electrical energy. The EMEC device comprises a stator; a rotor; a direct current power source; a commutator, and flourescent lamps acting as a non-linear, capacitive, voltage-limiting load. Four armature coils of a first magnetic polarity are concentrically mounted on a first side of the outer surface of a non-magnetic cylindrical stator casing, and four armature coils of an opposite polarity are concentrically mounted on an opposite side of the stator casing. Each coil is wound with an average of 6,650 turns of 34 AWG gauge teflon-coated wire. The rotor is constructed of non-magnetic material, and is rotationally mounted in the stator casing. A plurality of neodymium iron-boron permanent magnets are circumferentially mounted on the rotor.
