How long will the Dominant Wheel turn before slowing to a stop? It appears to be wonderfully simple. Congratulations on a great build. Very interesting.
I replicated this engine like five times already and couldn't make it work like this one. I think my springs are garbage... Or maybe I forgot to put the electric motor on mine.
Hello, Is there an electromagnet beneath the table that is pulsing the motor to keep it going? Old magicians trick. To prove it isn't there kindly lift the motor off the table about a couple of feet.
Everyone, this is fake. BUT, don't look at these videos as "fake or real?". Instead just enjoy the design of the machine. There are many different ways you could build a "perpetual motor", the fun in these videos comes from the clever design concepts.
Beautiful English engineering at its best well done sir !!! Yes it works !!! hahaha and what I gentleman to share such a wonderful work with the rotten people of this earth hahahah wow .... You can fill the honesty in this man !!! Its got gravity written all over it !! Can it make energy ? yes !!! But for now its inspiration is so simple its been hidden for almost 14 billion years hahaha lol xx
So, very cool, but notice that when he is moving the object, there is a white circle on the table that is very obviously stays within. My guess is there is something under the table of sorts. I think the device would work, but slow down in time from friction. The speeding up...hmm.....reverse spring below? Not sure.
Similar to an electronic RLC circuit. Resonance between the inertial moments of the flywheel and spring produce optimal feedback, like pushing someone on a swing with only a light touch.
Well done. But there is another factor involved. The wheel is oscillating vertically in the gravitational field. It is getting energy out of that field. Think about it. Think about the implications. Now go and look at mooieenergie.nl . and find some of the pages they have deleted because they realised they had revealed too much.
"Lets give a spin and away it goes"- well not without quickly getting his left hand to reposition the baseplate, ( at 1min 47secs into the video) whereupon the device picks up speed... Listen carefully and you will hear some whispered advice too shortly after that. What if the 'weight' concealed a strong magnet and there was also a pulsing magnetic system out of view below the surface upon which he is operating the device. My guess is that would account for the manual intervention and repositioning to get the best effect. "What do you think of that" he says. A pity !
So. Is the purpose of the spring and weight to regulate the speed? Because the flywheel itself is storing the energy provided from the initial push.. seems like the spring would just cause unnecessary friction... unless thre purpose were to regulate the speed... which would come at thecost of that added friction.
The strength in this design is in the fact that it works with the difference in tension of the spring. The flywheel pushes the spring down at is farest (weakest) point and the spring pushes the flywheel back up on the shortest (stronger) point. Works only in one direction. and the power is also very weak. Nice work though! ;-)
I found this very fascinating ! A few months ago I did a simulation in Working Model with a flywheel and a spring and I was astounded to find that the wheel accelerated, albeit slowly.
Hi Daan, I realize this is a pretty old comment but I was wondering if you have and pictures of the dominant flywheel you made. could you share what items you used to make it?
@@lightswitchromo4393 Hello Lightswitch, yes, that was quite a while ago. As I mentioned it was only a simulation though. Working model's operation is based on real world situations but in my case I can only guess the acceleration came about because of some small error in the program's mathematics.
What's going on here?! It's a wheel spinning because he spins it, adding rotational energy. It's not an engine, it's a wheel. The spring doesn't add energy, it take some energy to be pushed down and then add some energy when it springs back, but the net energy is always a loss.
You have done a splendid job on something that is very difficult for many home machinists, that is, getting bearings to line up so smoothly, they seem to flow effortlessly. This is by far the smoothest-running fake engine I have ever seen.
I was thinking about it but can't tell why it should work. On the one hand the spring plate is lighter to push down when the leverage is larger but on the other hand, when the crank is pushed upwards while the leverage is shorter and the push stronger, the leverage of the flywheel isn't the same so finally, with material friction involved, we got less than zero net gain...
It is lighter to push down on the farther end, and harder to push down when shorter, but you forgot that it takes energy to decrease the length of the leverage. The lever not only applies an upward force, but also a horizontal force which is opposite to the direction the peg is moving. So the theoretical input force equals the output force if friction was ignored. Perpetual motion machines will never work, even in theoretical conditions, because nothing would be better than just letting a flywheel spin on its own. These machines are just illusions, because they hide the equal and opposite force and make it hard to point out.
Nice looking concept, but this ain't real for two reasons (1.) The man in the video would have mass produced this to generate useful energy (2.) The principle of energy conservation, there is no resultant energy created. The crank pin rotates and LOOSES energy as it pushes down the spring, the same amount of energy or less is what it GAINS from the spring as the spring pushes it up.
If it were real, the guy had found a way of suppressing friction in mechanical systems. Surely this would have been fully publicized and we have seen already wonderful practical applications. Nothing of this has happened, so my guess is he is cheating, the easiest way being simply an electric motor hidden from the camera. In any case, to decide if it is real or not, we would need the complete apparatus, information on the principle of functioning, and instructions on how to disassemble, reassemble, and start it up. Otherwise, we can only speculate.
Look at 2:42 if this was fake the wheel would be moving even when he stopped it which denotes that it’s powered by something other than spring p,us he showed how the wheel goes fast by different positioning of the spring I think this one is real for sure
its a Brushed DC motor alright and the spring is an electrical contact but it just juces the motor (likely form a CD drive) whenever its touching I just herd him say "the bearings from an old motor" which is hilarious b/c the bearings ARE old motors
Ive been working on the same thing here in the states. Ive found that if i use a massively overpowered spring and gearing i can get a 300 watt generator to run for hours.
The crank pin is the commutator, the spring is the brushes, the motor is behind the crank, the weight is full of button batteries, the screw is a potentiometer (speed control). The epoxy is really Fiberglas resin and the table cloth needs washing. Cuz otherwise that won't run. or He's a magician..
+ThomasTheSailor Chubby I think your mostly correct but I don't think the batteries are in the weight unless he is running wires underneath. Could be underneath the base since it does not sit flat or underneath the little sign plate he made. It sure is fooling a lot of people. I may make one just for a laugh.
+valveman12 why does everyone keep thinking that there are batteries or wires involved, when all you need to use is a small stream of air flowing over the top of the flywheel to keep it going. that's what I would use if it were fake. however I believe there is evidence this can work as I have already stated.
Creo haber leido casi todos los comentarios, NO VI NI UNO SOLO de alguien que lo hubiese replicado, sólo opinólogos. Yo trayé de replicarlo, hice cientos de combinaciones, distintas masas, contrapesos, largos, resortes, excéntricas, etc y no hubo caso, NO funcionó. Teóricamente debería funcionar si se usa el resorye y la ubicación apropiados pero en lamprácticano funciona o al menos yo no pude hacerlo.
The simple fact of physics is you don’t get nowt for owt ......meaning you do not get something for nothing ....if you watch the video carefully you will notice 1. The flywheel accelerates as soon as the Crank pin touches the spring(indicating that it is powered by a motor) 2. The gentleman rotates the whole divide around an axis indicating that there are wires coming through the table. 3. The gentleman is very careful to position the crank pin as far away from the spring as possible this is to stop it accidentally triggering the motors. 4. The two Aluminium spacers look very much like brushless cd drive motors. And lastly you cannot ignore the laws of physics.
Great demo, I learned a lot by watching. the flywheel and the spring are both like capacitors and tuning the spring to be in harmony with the speed of the rotation, beautiful work.
It makes sence to me BECAUSE it hits the spring at the end and then after center it gets more power Because its farther back the spring flex point the end is like a long pry bar how long it will run i dont know but spins one direction ONLY
Since 15 years, I have been dealing with angular energy electricity generation systems (R&D). My positive designs about angular continue. In this regard, my own financial means are insufficient, I had meetings with many businessmen, they accepted the financing of the project, but they gave up when it came to signing a protocol, that is, when it came to formalisation. If there is an entrepreneur who will take firm steps with me on this path, who is idealistic, has financial means and wants to make an official protocol, I would like to meet. 98% of the published videos are wrong and do not work. I know the mistake they all make.
That works cause---Mass has a 1/100 sec. a super mass inertia---it goes in without loose much movement and than the mass on the spring jumpes back with this more Power. Another device is from Henry Bull 1934 -Thanks a lot !!!
It would be interesting to see a larger scale model, and se if it also runs when it’s bigger and stronger, that way there could be some kind of potential for a motor that could be strong enough to actually give out some energy, without running out of it too fast itself, sure it might only run for a few minutes, before having to restart it, but long enough to charge a battery a bit, without having to put too much muscle energy into it.
That's right! Appears at start-up (no braking!) Where you need to slow down, the movement continues. There is a positive boost. Maybe a bottom-fed induction + diode is something.
So many people in doubt if it's real or not.. Sigh :-) Don't start thinking about the workings, it's just Fake! Possibly one 'wire' is the metal frame of the whole piece. The other wire comes through that pole, via the spring, and energizes the motor which is clearly visible next to the fly-wheel.
SINCLAIRRESEARCH It has to be an external input. A spring is no energy source. Petrol, coal, diesel, electricity, are all external energy inputs. If you're in doubt about this then that's your silly problem. Not going to discuss about it for 10 replies.
were making one as i speak and its nearly finished .but have found a spring would turn it and keep it turning round . ill video it as soon as its all up and going . and will show it outside all around with no tricks just to prove it . its a sound mechanical action . watch this space. with best wishes keith
Sorry - forgot to mention.. For anyone interested on why this device may indeed be over unity (relating to centrifugal force as the source offsetting apposing forces in relation to gravity), I highly recommend that you read a journal article written at Department of Electrical Engineering, California State University.. Its entitled "Gravity and the quantum vacuum inertia hypothesis" I dont think youtube will let me post a link but you can google it.. You can also google gravity_arxiv.pdf Whats really interesting is the notion of parallel physical process..
c'est un montage impossible de la façon signalée. en physique et c'est le principe fondamental de la thermodynamique qui le refuse autrement qui a publié ce montage a cache le moteur principal qui alimente ce volant d'inertie
Bolderimage i am student of mechanical technology last semester. .... I have seen your video 4 month ago and decided to choose it for my final year project. ... Now i choose it and working on it. .... The only problem that i face is the math and also the dimensions and weight e.t.c... Would you please help me to complete my project.... I just only need the dimensions and calculations. ...
we have reconstructed this lovely machine and now just looking for a suitable spring , ours produces about 15 volts when finished with no hidden motors as the doubting thomases say , it is a reasonable and normal engineering principle . we will show it when finished and polished and prove there are no motors whatsoever !
Watch at 1:43 the thing will be slow so you can see that when the pin touches the spring, the flywheel gets a boost.. Its a hidden batter and motor in ine of those 2 'motor' casings ;) Never lets the thing rest in a position where the pin is on the spring, or we would see it more clearly. Mags
This is a great little device...I think this has great potential just from studying it. If you can add a bit of drag to the flywheel without it stopping, I would bet you could power a small model dc motor and light up a few LEDs...Just a thought. Like this alot.
I suggest to every one who doubts this is real go buy the parts to create one. Build it and film it failing. #mythbusters can you build a 20 ft talk version of this and power a home?
A flywheel is also a gyroscope. Pick it up, Mount it on a vertical axial, change the crank pin to a needle bearing or put a nylon coating on it. Come on !, Play more. !!
What if you put a big ring magnet outside the flywheel and used a coil from a microwave transformer to make some electricity for a little led nightlight?
I see a potential to make energy with this idea ..by using multiple springs and may be an automotive camshaft or similar by using a v8 cam shaft and a small engine flywheel you could possibly use the flywheel and its original alternator to generate electricity in stead of 1 spring you could have 16 times the power out put you could even possibly use rollers on the springs to reduce friction ? This could be a really interesting power source.. I love the pendulum weight idea as a way to fine tune the pressure applied
You said you dont believe theres any spare energy from it. Everything has a certain amount of resistance. Those bearings have resistance. The air hitting those flywheel spokes causes resitance. The friction between the crank pin and the spring causes resistance. Thats proof this motor can power itself and still have spare energy.
I think that the acceleration is obtained by gravity that is joined to the plate.the burden created by the rotation of the flywheel pressure plate down so easily that speed fall significantly but not to stop the flywheel So be under the influence of gravity even slightly bounces so that the sheet will try to return to its original state ... BUT already created a momentum of gravity that is joined to the platethus increasing the chances of the flywheel to go free next 75% as momentum will even got to do the same pressure and so in the way of work is gained 0.01% which gives him the chance to continue its work (google translate)
Oh hold on, it would have to be the other way round so's the coil doesn't move. That way the current can be fed easily from the coil without causing too much bother
y,ou should patent it , a bit larger and you could make a home generator from this idea its excellent . just put magnets round the flywheel and coils nearby, and make it bigger and you have a winner ....welll done ...very exciting method best wishes from S.e.r.L.
You can power this with a few copper coils inside the bearing and a battery hidden within the system. It's fairly low friction, so you should be able to do it with a very tiny battery. That's assuming he didn't put electricity through the table it's on, since it does appear to be metal and he suspiciously moves it within one exact spot on the table.
