Rotational gravitational torque-generating system and method

摘要

A rotational gravitational machine including a rotatable structure and a set of movable weight assemblies carried by the rotatable structure and jointly rotatable with the rotatable structure about a rotation axis. The movable weight assemblies are arranged radially spaced apart from the rotation axis and angularly spaced apart from each other. Each movable weight assembly includes a movable magnetic weight that can reciprocally and radially move between radially innermost and outermost positions relative to the rotation axis. A first magnetic biasing system is provided, including a radially movable, first magnetic piston which magnetically biases the movable magnetic weight between the radially innermost position and the radially outermost position in order to unbalance the assembly formed by the rotatable structure and movable weight assemblies. This unbalancing allows gravity to produce a torque arm that promotes rotation of the assembly about the rotation axis.
