Abstract

An electric motor or generator having a permanent magnet cylinder or stator comprised of a plurality of sections with each section having a predetened magnetic orientation so as to create a relatively strong interior working space having a relatively strong magnetic field or flux therein. A cylindrical core formed of copper wires or conductors imbedded in a magnetic material is placed within the interior working space of the permanent magnet cylinder so as to be free to rotate along a longitudinal axis or in relation to the permanent magnet cylinder. Upon application of a current to the copper wires or conductors within the core, the core is caused to rotate or move in relation to the permanent magnet cylinder, forming an electric motor. Alternatively, when the core is mechanically rotated or moved in relation to the permanent magnet cylinder, current is induced in the conductors in the core, generating electricity. The magnetic orientation and arrangement of the sections making up the permanent magnetic cylinder has a 'magic' ring configuration which results in a relatively strong interior working magnetic field with very little exterior magnetic flux leakage. An efficient, relatively compact, powerful electric motor or generator results.
