re: My design

I'am surprised at the lack of response .

Personally I saw this as the missing piece of most designs ,Keeping the centre of gravity to one side of the pivot of a wheel.

I'll do a video of it working when I can afford the parts ,thanks for looking anyway.

re: My design

Based on the blue area being were the maximum force is I had 6 rods attached to the cog. In drawing "project 3 " It shows the position of just 2 off the rods as they have to work in pairs. All the rods have to be same length and weights from cog,and there is always a weight in the blue 2-4...

re: My design

Firstly Has anyone already had the centre of gravity follow the path made by the red oval.?

This was my first goal which I achieved .

I have researched for a long time and I cannot see were this has been done.

My design

Hello everyone , I will rebuild my wheel out of the correct materials as my finances allow . But if anyone has the resources I would love to see it built . The problem I have is financial. I could only afford makeshift components ,The mechanics work very smoothly ,but Given the weights needed and my...

re: The summary of my latest studies

No problem AB , I wanted specifically to present to path_finder because His models of his experiments are like a work of art and very well done .If anyone could put my idea into a practical form he would be the man. But can I say that with the permenant overbalance and large leverage friction and th...

re: The summary of my latest studies

I have seen a few posts that have wheels set at an angle . But I havent seen any so far that has the cog following this path . If anyone has seen the cog follow this path then Thats fine,could you tell me what the issue was that prevented it working? Or just point me in the direction of the author. ...

re: The summary of my latest studies

Thankyou for the welcome AB,
I cant fully make out how yours works but at first look, it doesn't seem very overbalanced and the weights seem fixed is there any leverage involved?
What is the overbalance ratio of that configuration?

re: The summary of my latest studies

Thankyou for your instructions , Ok this is first time using paint so don't laugh. The image should give you the general configuration to allow the pivot to pass as I say along just the radius . It looks very simple but I had a few scratching my head moments . Love to hear your comments Thankyou. Th...
