Re: Transfer weight design
Calloway - The drawing below illustrates my understanding of the physics behind your apparatus when using a flat spring. Does this represent your principle correctly? Interestingly, it suggests a one-way bearing may not be needed. The angle with the horizontal that the "pendulum" lever set...

Re: Transfer weight design
Calloway - Thanks for your reply. You are most welcome to use the drawings. I am not looking over your shoulder, only intently trying to understand and visualize what you are selflessly sharing with everyone. It is easy to see why the "pendulum" will hold its initial position in your desig...

Re: Transfer weight design
Calloway - Do I understand your working principle correctly? Drawing is for a wheel rotating CW.

Re: Transfer weight design
Calloway - Sincere thanks for continuing to post your results on this forum and to make videos available. Open sourcing your concept is exemplary. It appears as if the device in the video link you shared a few posts back may be self-running. Is that the case and you are now optimizing with subsequen...

Re: Transfer weight design
While I rarely post on any OU forum, I follow the field closely and have been involved in allocating research grants in the area for a number of years, though only recently in gravity powered devices. Please forgive my intrusion but I feel it is important to interject here. IMHO this design deserves...

Re: Transfer weight design
Thanks for your willingness to share your ideas. I'd be very interested in your parts list please and where you sourced them. Thanks in advance. Would it be possible for you to provide some more pictures and possibly a video as well?

Re: Why doesn't this work?
Thank you all for taking the time to reply. The level of knowledge on this forum is exceptional. Fletcher's link to the article on the Roberval balance was particularly enlightening and very clearly explains the flaws in the concept you all noted. Much appreciated.

Why doesn't this work?
My apology for starting a new thread on this. Undoubtedly this idea is not new to the members of this forum since many here have devoted a large part of your lives to studying gravity wheels. I searched the forum to the best of my ability without success before making this post. I would like help un...
