The present invention relates generally to the field of electric generators. More specifically, the present invention, in one embodiment, relates to a novel 4-phase electric motor and generator device. The device having a stator wall with eight stator slots and four pole groups for generating electrical energy with increased efficiency compared to conventional generators. The generator has less vibrations and improved rotor mass. Accordingly, the present disclosure makes specific reference thereto. Nonetheless, it is to be appreciated that aspects of the present invention are also equally applicable to other like applications, devices, and methods of manufacture.
By way of background, electric power consumption is necessary for a quality life and people often use electricity for lighting, heating, cooling, and refrigeration and for operating appliances, computers, electronics, machinery, and public transportation systems and more. In fact, electricity consumption is an essential component of the modern life. However, increased electric power consumption can be harmful for the environment and ultimately lead to global warming. Enormous volume of CO2 emissions, due to worldwide consumption of the electric energy, has started to cause serious environmental problems such as global warming. Reducing use of electric energy saves money, increases our energy security, and reduces the pollution that is emitted from non-renewable sources of energy.
Generally, all parts of the electricity system can affect the environment, and the size of these impacts will depend on how and where the electricity is generated and delivered. Electricity generation can generate solid waste, which may include hazardous waste and emissions of greenhouse gases and other air pollutants, that affect the atmosphere. Conventional single, 2-phase, and 3-phase generators use considerable power and are ineffective at generating electricity. Single phase generators are affordable but have the least efficiency and are commonly found for residential applications. 3-phase generators are more efficient than single phase and 2-phase generators, but are not 100% efficient and are commonly used for industrial applications. All types of conventional generators also cause excessive vibrations, which can cause an unbalance in the rotor of the generator and prevent the generator from running smoothly. People desire improved generators that are more efficient and environment friendly.
Therefore, there exists a long-felt need in the art for an electric generator designed to produce environmentally friendly electric power. There is also a long-felt need in the art for an electric generator that is more efficient than existing single, 2-phase, and 3-phase generators. Additionally, there is a long-felt need in the art for a novel electric generator that can be used for both residential applications and industrial applications. Moreover, there is a long-felt need in the art for an electric generator that has improved rotor balance and does not cause excessive vibrations. Further, there is a long-felt need in the art for an electric generator that consumes less power for generating electricity. Finally, there is a long-felt need in the art for a 4-phase electric generator that is configured to reduce harmful effects on the environment such as greenhouse gas emissions.
The subject matter disclosed and claimed herein, in one embodiment thereof, comprises a 4-phase motor and generator device. The device is configured to be more efficient than single phase, 2-phase, and 3-phase generators and is environmentally friendly. The device further comprising a stator wall having a circular or cylindrical shape, eight stator slots disposed in the stator wall, the eight stator slots are divided into four pole groups of two opposing stator slots, each slot of the two opposing stator slots are connected via a common coil, the common coil also connects to an output and to a neutral point, one slot of the two opposing stator slots having North polarity (N (North) stator slot) and the other slot having South polarity (S (South) stator slot), four of the stator slots on one side of the stator wall correspond to the other four of the stator slots on an opposing side of the stator wall, an armature, and the device is further configured to alternate activation between N (North) stator slots and S (South) stator slots of the four pole groups in response to rotation of the armature, wherein only six of the eight poles are actively coupled in any given configuration.
In this manner, the 4-phase motor and generator of the present invention accomplishes all of the forgoing objectives and provides users with a 4-phase electric motor designed to produce efficient and environmentally friendly power. The generator allows people to utilize the generated power in numerous ways like powering homes, vehicles, and more. Also, the generator is good for the environment and reduces harmful effects on the environment like greenhouse gas emissions.
Still further, there is a long-felt need in the art for an electric generator that compensates for the earth's gravitational field, where the electric generator comprises eccentric mass loads or eccentric rotor masses revolving about a center axis of rotation. For example, in 2012 the Higgs Field (i.e., boson) was discovered that encompasses the entire universe. The Higgs boson is important because it implies the existence of a Higgs Field, an otherwise invisible field of energy which pervades the entire universe. Without the Higgs Field, the elementary particles that make up individuals and the visible universe would have no mass. Without the Higgs Field, mass could not be constructed. Using the “Higgs Field” to move payloads in outer space is possible with electrical energy driving eccentric mass loads or eccentric rotor masses about a center axis of rotation.
The application of supersymmetric eccentric load mass systems presents unique technical objectives and challenges that fundamentally alter the dynamics of current angular momentum conservation laws. In systems with eccentric mass configurations, the distribution of mass around the axis of rotation is non-uniform, leading to deviations from traditional conservation principles. The angular momentum of the system is intricately tied to the mass, its radial distance from the axis, and the angular velocity. As a result, the angular momentum varies throughout the rotation cycle, peaking at points where the mass is furthest from the axis and diminishing when closer to it. The result is the eccentric mass load systems move in a direction that is constant in the earth's gravitational field and in the Higgs Field in outer space.
Yet still further, there is a long-felt need in the art for an electric generator that compensates for the Higgs Field gravitational field and for moving payloads therein. Leveraging the unique characteristics of eccentric mass loads or eccentric rotor masses in supersymmetric systems offers the potential to generate higher forces for moving payloads in space using electrical energy. The present disclosure introduces innovative approaches to enhance force generation for moving payloads in the Higgs Field environment of outer space. Other uses of the present disclosure include assistance with asteroid mining, satellite maintenance and repositioning, space junk problems and/or He3 Lunar Mining. Eccentric mass dynamics necessitates addressing the complexities of resources of moving payloads in the Higgs Field in outer space with electrical energy.

The innovation is now described with reference to the drawings, wherein like reference numerals are used to refer to like elements throughout. In the following description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding thereof. It may be evident, however, that the innovation can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and devices are shown in block diagram form in order to facilitate a description thereof. Various embodiments are discussed hereinafter. It should be noted that the figures are described only to facilitate the description of the embodiments. They are not intended as an exhaustive description of the invention and do not limit the scope of the invention. Additionally, an illustrated embodiment need not have all the aspects or advantages shown. Thus, in other embodiments, any of the features described herein from different embodiments may be combined.
As noted above, there is a long-felt need in the art for an electric generator designed to produce environmentally friendly electric power. There is also a long-felt need in the art for an electric generator that is more efficient than existing single, 2-phase, and 3-phase generators. Additionally, there is a long-felt need in the art for a novel electric generator that can be used for both residential applications and industrial applications. Moreover, there is a long-felt need in the art for an electric generator that has improved rotor balance and does not cause excessive vibrations. Further, there is a long-felt need in the art for an electric generator that consumes less power for generating electricity. Finally, there is a long-felt need in the art for a 4-phase electric generator that is configured to reduce harmful effects on the environment like greenhouse gas emissions.
The present invention, in one exemplary embodiment, is a method of operating a 4-Phase Motor and Generator device. The method comprising the steps of rotating an armature along a stator wall, the stator wall having a circular or cylindrical shape, eight stator slots divided into four pole groups, each pole group has a N (North) stator slot and a S (South) stator slot, wherein four of the stator slots on one side of the stator wall correspond to the other four of the stator slots on an opposing side of the stator wall; alternating activation between N (North) stator slots and S (South) stator slots of the four pole groups in response to the rotation of the armature, wherein only six of the eight poles are actively coupled in any given configuration; and generating electrical energy with increased efficiency compared to 1-phase, 2-phase, or 3-phase motors.
For the present disclosure, an Eccentric load or rotor mass diagram is considered as a rotor unbalance diagram and is a graphical representation of the eccentricity of the rotor mass in a generator. The diagram is used to determine the amount and location of unbalance in the rotor and to ensure that the generator runs smoothly without causing excessive vibrations. The Eccentric load or rotor mass diagram shows the location and magnitude of the unbalance forces acting on the rotor due to the eccentricity of the rotor mass.
Referring initially to the drawings,
The four pole groups are configured on the stator wall 102 and each pole group includes a pair of corresponding stator slots on opposing sides of the stator wall 102. As a result, the one pole group is defined by two “A-A” stator slots, and similarly other pole groups are defined by corresponding “B-B” stator slots together, “C-C” stator slots together, and “D-D” stator slots together. During use, the rotation of the armature 104 causes the four pole groups to alternate in activation between N (North) stator slots and S (South) stator slots. This alternation results in a rotating magnetic field within the stator wall, which generates an electrical current in the armature. This configuration is beneficial because only six of the eight poles are actively coupled in any given configuration, which results in less energy consumption.
The stator wall 102 is preferably made of a magnetic material, and the activation of the pole groups results in a rotating magnetic field within the stator wall. The armature 104 functions as a rotor and includes a plurality of conductive windings (i.e., coils of insulated wires). A permanent magnet 108 is positioned at the center of the stator wall 102 and has opposite North and South poles for creating additional magnetic field. It should be appreciated that the 4-phase generator 100 can also function as a motor by supplying electrical energy to the armature 104, which causes it to rotate and produce mechanical energy. The armature 104 can also be a permanent magnet with North and South poles, or have copper windings and receive power (i.e., electrical energy) from Lithium batteries regulated from a control panel using a manual or automated control process. As further explained below, the Lithium batteries can receive power from copper coil eccentric mass loads on each armature. The control panel can modulate the amount of current from the Lithium batteries along with a DC current motor that rotates the 4-phase motor generator in direct proportions or separate direct current feeds from the control panel modulated manually or controlled by an automation control program for the DC motor or the armature 104 lamination with copper coils.
It should be appreciated that the generator 100 of the present invention in 4-phase generator having formed four pole groups alternating between N (North) stator slots and S (South) stator slots, thereby consuming less electrical energy than existing 1-phase, 2-phase, and 3-phase motors and thus increases energy efficiency. Further, the 4-phase generator 100 reduces harmful effects on the environment like greenhouse gas emissions. In the preferred embodiment, three N (North) stator slots and one S (South) stator slot are used for providing 4-phase output 110. As illustrated, the slots 106c, 106f, 106g, 106h are used for the output wherein the slot 106h is S (South) stator slot. Similarly, the other three S (South) stator slots and the remaining N (North) stator slot are used for providing neutral connection to the generator 100 at the neutral point 112.
For each pair of opposing stator slots, a common coil is connected to opposing stator slots wherein the coil extends from the output 110 and connects to the opposite slots and terminate at the neutral point 112. The common coil 114 is for the stator slots 106a, 106e, the common coil 116 is for the stator slots 106b, 106f, the common coil 118 is for the stator slots 106c, 106g and the common coil 120 is for the stator slots 106d, 106h.
The eccentric load or rotor mass is indicated by the letter “G,” which is located at a distance “E1” from the center axis of rotation “O”. The eccentric load or rotor mass is indicated by the letter “I” and is located at a distance “F1” from the center axis of rotation “O”. Additionally, the circle 302 shows the location of the eccentric load or rotor mass, indicated by the letter “J,” and the location of the eccentric load or rotor mass, indicated by the letter “H.” These locations are important for determining the amount and location of unbalance in the rotor and for ensuring that the generator runs smoothly without causing excessive vibrations.
In Circle 304 (i.e., “B” phase), the eccentric load or rotor mass “G” and “J” are both located at a distance “E2” from the center axis of rotation “O”, while the eccentric load or rotor mass “I” and “H” are located at a distance “F2” from the center axis of rotation. In Circle 306 (i.e., “C” phase), the eccentric load or rotor mass “J” is located at a certain distance “E3” from the center axis of rotation “O”, while the eccentric load or rotor mass “H” is located at a distance “F3” from the center axis of rotation “O”. This configuration affects the overall balance of the rotor and the amount of vibration it produces.
In Circle 308 (i.e., “D” phase), the eccentric load or rotor mass “I” and “J” are both located at a distance “E4” from the center axis of rotation “O”, while the eccentric load or rotor mass “H” and “G” are located at a distance “F4” from the center axis of rotation “O”. The location of these masses affects the balance of the rotor and the amount of vibration it produces during operation.
The Circle 404, eccentric load or rotor masses “H” and “I” are at a distance “E6” from the center axis of rotation “O”, while eccentric load or rotor masses “G” and “J” are at a distance “F6” from the center axis of rotation “O”. The Circle 406 illustrates eccentric load or rotor mass H, which is at a distance “E7” from the center axis of rotation, while eccentric load or rotor mass “J” is at a distance “F7” from the center axis of rotation “O”. Circle 408 illustrates eccentric load or rotor masses “G” and “H”, which are at a distance “E8” from the center axis of rotation “O”, while eccentric load or rotor masses “J” and “I” are at a distance “F8” from the center axis of rotation “O”. This cycle now repeats to Eccentric load or rotor mass Diagram 300 then Eccentric load or rotor mass Diagram 400 and so on. The alternating pattern of the eccentric load or rotor masses in the two diagrams 300, 400 helps to balance the eccentric loads and minimize vibrations in the motor or generator 100.
Diagrams 500 represent one system that rotates in a counterclockwise motion of its center axis and a second system that rotates in a clockwise motion of its center axis of rotation. Each of these systems 502, 504, 506, 508 can be one in front of the other so that the eccentric load mass is always peaking at the A phase to control the effects of the eccentric mass loads upon the center axis of rotation O, resulting in the systems illustrated in
Present systems disclose the eccentric mass on each of the four phase armatures moving the system in a direction that is constant, for example, in the direction of 180 degrees. In another embodiment, the generator output from changing the eccentric mass load to a copper coil mounted in iron lamination is disclosed.
In yet another embodiment, a 4-phase generator comprising a stator wall and an armature is disclosed. The stator wall having four phases of functional operation and a circular or cylindrical shape with eight stator slots divided into four pole groups, each pole group having a N (North) stator pole and a S (South) stator pole, an eccentric load or rotor mass diagram, including eccentric load or eccentric rotor mass I, G, H, and J, located at specific distances E and F from the center axis of rotation of the stator wall, wherein the eccentric load or rotor mass diagram enables the generator to operate efficiently and generate power while compensating for the eccentric loads or rotor masses. In yet another embodiment, the stator wall is made of a magnetic material.
Replacing the eccentric mass load with a copper coil provides for a change to the functioning of the eccentric mass load system, for example, the eccentric mass load system moves in a direction that is constant.
A 4-phase generator comprising a stator wall and an armature is disclosed. The stator wall having four phases of functional operations and a circular or cylindrical shape with eight stator slots divided into four pole groups, each pole group having a N (North) stator pole and a S (South) stator pole. The eccentric load or rotor mass can be replaced with a copper coil wound on its own iron lamination which is mounted on each armature. There can also be two conductor connections (i.e., pair of wires) from each copper coil extending to the center shaft of each armature. Each pair of wires will connect to an electric brush that has direct contact with the electric brush and the current flowing from the copper coil will go to the conductor segments of the copper coil and to the electric brush. The top and bottom of each of the four armatures will have a single brush top and a single brush bottom. The coil eccentric mass load passed by the stator wall results in electrons moving in the copper coil wherein the wiring to the electric brush extends to a control panel with set points of the Lithium battery's requirements. The copper coils will generate power into the Lithium batteries. A control program in the control panel includes programming for controlling charging of the Lithium batteries to prohibit overcharging and for indicating low charge of the Lithium batteries.
Switching and upgrading the eccentric mass loads or eccentric rotor masses to copper coils in each of the four armatures enable the copper coils to pass a magnetic field in the stator wall wherein electrons will be forced to move. The copper coils can be soldered to the top and bottom of a copper ring. The brushes can be mechanically attached to the shaft with dielectric hardware. From the brushes, a conductor segment is wired to a control panel and the control panel controls the current being able to unload or load the current from the installed coils on each of the four armatures to the Lithium batteries.

The wiring on the stator wall can be a 12-lead delta Y wiring configuration and the translational force generator having the configuration for the wiring to have the stator wall top right hand
Referring to
In other prior systems, one eccentric mass load system revolves clockwise and the other eccentric mass load system revolves counterclockwise about their center axis of rotation. Prior systems have displayed 4 armatures in one system and 4 armatures in the other eccentric mass load system making a total of 8 armatures within a pair of stator walls. This results in both of the eccentric mass load systems being a greater distance from the center axis of rotation at the same time (i.e., simultaneously), and the eccentric mass load systems are closest to the center axis of rotation simultaneously.
In contrast, the present disclosure includes one eccentric mass load system having 4 copper coils being the eccentric mass load revolving clockwise about its center axis of rotation, and another 4 copper coils being the eccentric mass load revolving counterclockwise about its center axis of rotation. The result is a system that moves in a direction that is constant, for example, in the gravitational field of the earth or the Higgs Field that exists in outer space. The present disclosure includes 2 eccentric mass load systems, for example, 4 copper coils revolving clockwise, and 4 copper coils revolving counterclockwise, within their respective stator wall. This results in movement of the copper coil eccentric mass loads or eccentric rotor masses in a direction that is constant.
