A slightly complicated build attempt...

Thanks for sharing Raj. Is this a recent build or a photo from an older one?

Most importantly did it work?

It was built yesterday.

I am working on a new idea. I am finding it too complicated to draw in 2d. Drawing in 3d is not my cup of tea.

So I am trying to build a physical model of this new idea, as I conceive it in my mind.

Just look at this picture as a 3d drawing.

I can't give much details for now.

All I can say is that trying to use the mass of a wheel to lift weights.

All I can say is that trying to use the mass of a wheel to lift weights.

An old approach of mine, don't waste your time on that, trust me! It doesn't solve the wheel problem.

Hi Raj,
I appreciate that you build model for model, but I think you miss a simple part.

Your construction is too complicated for me to understand, too may interactions during the turn.

I will send you over my solution of the self starting wheel.
You are able to verify it, I know.

I am not able in the next time to build this version, absolutely no time.

Hopefully I can visit my barn in the next time and can make some additional
pictures so that you can easily grab it.

Hello Georg!

That's right. It is complicated .

This is the first time, in my so many years of trying, I cannot put my concept on paper with drawings.

But I really feel, that there is something new about it. And I am trying hard to build a physical model to show.

Now, I am in a position to present a 2D drawing on paper, with full explanation on how the mass of a wheel will help with the lifting of weights to achieve width for height.

Drawing, picture and explanations:

1 is a large vertical drum wheel with inner rims2 on axle3.
5 is H-shaped small wheel, with hub6, of same diameter of rims2, connected and rotating together by belts10.
8 are diametrically opposite weights on ends of thin levers/bars7, at 45 degrees intervals, sliding on tiny diametically holes on hub6, being pulled upwards by strings11 at 45 degrees intervals on outer rim of wheel1 as it rotates.

Please note: The drawing is on graph paper. Therefore all dimensions of drawing can be easily ascertained.

The aim of this concept is to have the weights motions to be constrained by the mass of the smaller wheel inside, while being pulled upwards by the force of the larger rotating wheel, because the weights positions are providing unidirectional gravitational torque.

I have no doubt this concept is my best ever self-rotating wheel concept.

This COULD BE my last.

Raj

[raj]

I have come to the conclusion that the wheel/s and every accessories/parts inside MUST be of lightest mass to reduce frictional energy loss, except the torque producing weights MUST be of maximum mass per design.

I have an important question about Bessler's demonstration.
I hope someone here, can clarify me on this question.
Bessler demonstrated his wheels fully covered with some special covers, in public.
My question: Were the wheels and the covers rotating together?

If the covers were not rotating with the wheels, then it can be that there were two wheels rotating in a figure of 8 formation, or even more wheels, behind the covers.

What I am. Currently working on and showing my wheel concept in this thread, is defying Gravity.

I do not think any of you can fully understand this concept.

If any of you can understand this following question, you might then understand my presentation here.

The question:(hypothetical)
What can Gravity action be on two identical weights connected by a crossbar
longer than the diameter of the earth, through the center of the earth, one weight is further away from the center than the other???

For now, I feel I have found what I was looking for.

What I am trying in this concept is emulating earth gravitational pull on a single object spanning the earth poles.

Attempts to build a full proof of concept is next.

RAJ, hi!
I may tell to you just my 3$:
1$ - your idea to release the weights is REFINED and clever.
1$ - your garden is great and pleasant.
1$ - your car is asking for some water and shampoo.
Best!

Thanks Murilo.

I accept the first 1$ as a compliment for my wheel concept.

I was hoping to have some answers to my hypothetical question i asked above.

RAJ,
my time and my english are a bit short...
So, better try to tell me again the main points you deal.
Sorry! Just good will... no guaranty... B]
I'll try!
Best!
