Energy converting system
First Claim
1. An energy converting system comprising a track, a controller, and at least one magnetized body located on said track and including an energy converting unit, wherein:
- (i) said track comprises electrically connected coil windings spaced apart in a series way along said track to form a multi-phase linear stator;
(ii) said controller is electrically connected with said linear stator and generates a combination waveform consisting of a multi-phase propulsion signal and an auxiliary power signal;
(iii) said propulsion and power signals are distant by the corresponding frequencies of said signals;
(iv) said propulsion signal causes the interaction of said magnetized body with said linear stator, thus propelling said magnetized body along said track;
(v) said energy converting unit comprises electrically connected energy consuming means and at least one pick-up coil inductively coupled to said linear stator, thus said power signal to be consumed by said energy consuming means.

Abstract
An energy converting system is comprised of a track, a controller, and a magnetized body located on the track and including an energy converting unit. The track comprises electrically connected coil windings spaced apart in a series way along the track to form a 3-phase linear stator. The controller is electrically connected with the linear stator and generates a combination waveform consisting of a multi-phase propulsion signal and a power signal. The propulsion and power signals are at different frequencies. The propulsion signal causes the interaction of the magnetized body with the linear stator, thus propelling the magnetized body along the track. The energy converting unit comprises electrically connected energy consuming means and at least one pick-up coil inductively coupled to the linear stator, thus providing power to the energy consuming means.
