Title:
PLANETARY GYROSCOPIC DRIVE SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2007126450
Kind Code:
B1
Abstract:
This invention relates to a universal drive system employing gyroscopic principals of operation. Central to the system is maintenance of rotor inertia through forced precession. Its preferred use is for the generation of electric power. Other uses, such as an auxiliary automotive drive system, fan or mobile display are within the scope of its application. Operation is initiated by bringing the rotor up to speed and offsetting its axis of rotation causing precession. The rotor's inertia and its natural tendency to restore itself to its original position of equilibrium, prior to being offset, are utilized through mechanical design to utilize this restorative force to produce a counter force which acts upon the spinning precessing gyro (rotor) automatically to sustain its inertia and precessional motion.
