A wheel, A,with a series of armatures on its periphery, revolves before a horseshoe magnet. Upon the shaft are alsomounted a star wheel and a pro-peller wheel. The star wheel isarranged to tilt a lever, whichcarries at its extremity a plate,B, of brass coated with thechemical and mineral sub-stances which make it an in-sulator of magnetism. The per-manent magnet is a U-shapedbar, with its poles near the wheel,A, and opposite the path of theinsulating plate B. The propeller wheel, turning in a cup of water, servesto equalize the motion, and thus prevent the machine from runningaway with itself and committing self-destruction, so the inventor PERPETUAL MOTION. 389 968. PERPETUAL MOTION. Alternate magnet type. The swing-ing of the outside magnets of oppositepolarity. Alternate the attraction andrepulsion of the magnets on the wheelto generate power to swing the outsidemagnets in and out of their sphere ofaction. Patented 1799.
