Abstract

A lift assisted magnetic power device adapted to convert rotational energy into electrical current, said device comprising:a stand;a rotatable central axis mounted on said stand;a plurality of cylinders having a first extremity attached to said central axis and having a second extremity extending outwardly therefrom;at least one magnet contained within each one of said plurality of cylinders, said magnets being free to move along the cylinder between a first position proximate said first extremity and a second position proximate the second extremity;a coil surrounding each one of the cylinders and arranged in such a way as to be able to generate an electrical current as the at least one magnet passes through the coil; anda connection capable of carrying said electrical current from said coil to a circuit (power grid) or powers source (such as a battery).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A lift assisted magnetic power device adapted to convert rotational energy into electrical current, said device comprising:
 a stand;   a rotatable central axis mounted on said stand;   a plurality of cylinders having a first extremity attached to said central axis and having a second extremity extending outwardly therefrom;   at least one magnet contained within each one of said plurality of cylinders, said each one of at least one magnet being free to move along the cylinder between a first position proximate said first extremity and a second position proximate the second extremity;   a coil surrounding each one of the cylinders and arranged in such a way as to be able to generate an electrical current as the at least one magnet passes through the coil; and   a connection capable of carrying said electrical current from said coil to a circuit (power grid) or powers source (such as a battery).   
     
     
         2 . The device according to  claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of sails adapted to capture a kinetic energy generated by a source selected from the group consisting of: wind; water; pressurized or compressed gas. 
     
     
         2 . The device according to  claim 1 , further comprising at least one sail located at the extremity of a number of said cylinders. 
     
     
         3 . The device according to  claim 1 , further comprising at least one sail located at the extremity of each cylinder. 
     
     
         4 . The device according to  claim 1  further comprising a plurality of sails adapted to capture a kinetic energy generated by a source selected from the group consisting of: wind; water; pressurized or compressed gas where the sails are rotatably mounted on the outer extremity of the cylinders so as to be able to move in one direction or another. 
     
     
         5 . The device according to  claim 1  further comprising a bridge rectifier connected to the connection capable of carrying said electrical current prior to sending the electrical current to a circuit or power source. 
     
     
         6 . A device adapted to convert a renewable energy source into kinetic energy of said device and convert said kinetic energy into potential energy and convert said potential energy into the motion of a magnet through a coil to generate an electrical current. 
     
     
         7 . The device according to  claim 6 , comprising:
 a stand;   a rotatable central axis mounted on said stand;   a plurality of cylinders having a first extremity attached to said central axis and having a second extremity extending outwardly therefrom;   at least one magnet contained within each one of said plurality of cylinders, each one of said at least one magnet being free to move along the cylinder between a first position proximate said first extremity and a second position proximate the second extremity;   a coil surrounding each one of the cylinders and arranged in such a way as to be able to generate an electrical current as the at least one magnet passes through the coil; and   a connection capable of carrying said electrical current from said coil to a circuit (power grid) or powers source (such as a battery).   
     
     
         8 . The device according to  claim 7 , further comprising an outer ring located proximate the second extremity of said cylinders and secured thereonto. 
     
     
         9 . The device according to  claim 6  further comprising a bridge rectifier connected to the connection capable of carrying said electrical current prior to sending the electrical current to a circuit or power source. 
     
     
         10 . Method to generate electrical current, wherein said method comprises the steps:
 providing a lift assisted magnetic power device adapted to convert rotational energy into electrical current, said device comprising:
 a stand; 
 a rotatable central axis mounted on said stand; 
 a plurality of cylinders having a first extremity attached to said central axis and having a second extremity extending outwardly therefrom; 
 at least one magnet contained within each one of said plurality of cylinders, said magnets being free to move along the cylinder between a first position proximate said first extremity and a second position proximate the second extremity; 
 a coil surrounding each one of the cylinders and arranged in such a way as to be able to generate an electrical current as the at least one magnet passes through the coil; and 
 a connection capable of carrying said electrical current from said coil to a circuit (power grid) or powers source (such as a battery); 
   exposing the device to a source of energy capable of rotating the device and incurring the displacement of the magnets contained in the cylinders;   capturing the electrical current generated by the device by directing the electrical current from the coil to a circuit (power grid) or powers source (such as a battery).   
     
     
         11 . A lift assisted magnetic power device adapted to convert rotational energy into electrical current, said device comprising:
 a stand;   a rotatable central axis mounted on said stand;   a plurality of cylinders each one of said plurality of cylinders mounted through said central axis so as to have a first extremity on one side of the central axis and a second extremity extending outwardly from the other side of the central axis; wherein said first and second extremity of each one of the plurality of cylinders are equidistant from the central axis;   at least one magnet contained within each one of said plurality of cylinders, said magnets being free to move along the cylinder between a first position proximate said first extremity and a second position proximate the second extremity;   a coil surrounding each one of the cylinders and arranged in such a way as to be able to generate an electrical current as the at least one magnet passes through the coil; and   a connection capable of carrying said electrical current from said coil to a circuit (power grid) or powers source (such as a battery).
