Had to Laugh!

[WXYZCIENCE]

Here is a picture of a Unite Motor I found in a surplus store.

Tested it at 850 rpm and I got 12v at 6 amps. The first time I ran across over unity motors. HaHaHa. I got a good deal on them, guess the inventor vanished and they had to sell off the stock. I got the whole pile! :: Now for real,I checked the manufactures site, they are a electric bike motor generators rated 150 watt 18 volt  10 amps. Joe

 Joe,

   Are those brushless? I'd laugh too if I ran

across a deal like that...Darn! Some people have

all the luck ! The whole pile ...Huh !

  If you could see me up close....a tear or two

in my eye....LOL ?

                    ( :>) Norm.

No, probably not brushless. At least, mine isn't. It's a 24V version from an electric bike. Mine is useless as a generator though, requires 1500+RPM, from memory.

I see these motors just about everywhere. Cheap Chinese stuff, but then, if the price is right, I won't complain

You plan to make a windgenny out of them, or why else have you bought a pallet of these? I can think of some applications, they're easy to mount too. Mine have 608 ball bearings, IIRC. 4 carbon brushes.

The genny will have to be geared up of course. I can make notched belt pulleys easy, and I have lots of belts. Power in = Power out - losses. Joe

I'm not getting it. Never mind, it seems to be happening a lot lately.

"Unite", like 'unity', or 'over-unity'.

It takes 2 motors to work. Run one from the battery, use it to run the other as a generator charging the battery.  

Now (my favorite part) connect an inverter to the battery so you can use all the extra power made in your home!

With a hundred of these motors, he can supply the electricity needs of a small town!

Using the proper ICs and a big flux capacitor, it doesn't even need batteries!!!

Why didn't I think of it sooner!  I'm going to be rich for sure!



G-

And I'd be quite happy finding a motor like that.

[mutley]

would you be ever kind enough please to explain how you make notched pulleys as i am finding it difficult to find suitable sizes

[dinges]

<slamming on forehead>

Thanks.

But be careful. You and I might realize it's tongue-in-cheek. But I don't want to know how many people are running about now, trying to find two of these motors and solve the energy problem. :/

Hi Peter!

Anyone who thinks this is a new or actually workable idea, tell them I will sell them the parts!

All the parts... except the flux capacitor!

Good point.

It does NOT work.

The machine in this Picture is my wxyz cutter built 2004. All of it's parts were built  by my previous machine. And the previous machine was built using a drill press. I use a dynacad program to build up my parts. This picture is of a dual 34 ceramic magnet genny being cut on the rotary table. For notched belt pulleys, I just tell the machine number of teeth and diameter. I don't know how I did without this machine before.

The X and Y beds have dual acme thread 4000 steps per inch with automatic backlash compensation.The Z has 4 acme thread and 4000 steps per inch.Thank for your interest. Joe

make a plywood disc the size of gear you want,

wrap a release coated cog belt around it, and pour resin to form the teeth.

i have seen gears made for lathes done this way,

[WXYZCIENCE]

Yes Bob, I have made them like that, planetary design also if you flip the belt inside out and pour the resin on the outside you can make not to shabby internal cogs. I also made some silicone gears for silent servos. Joe.
