SELF-POWERED MAGNETIC GENERATOR
First Claim
1. A power generating apparatus comprises:
- a moving permanent magnet having a north polarity at a first end and a south polarity at the opposite second end;
a pair of electromagnets, each having a coil and a central core, one electromagnet being positioned in proximity to each end of the permanent magnet, when activated the electromagnets provide a repulsive force of the same polarity as the nearest respective end of the magnet;
one or more switches for activating each electromagnet;
a central coil encircling the permanent magnet; and
a battery connected to the central coil, and wherein the permanent magnet is moved repeatedly toward each electromagnet and as the N or S end of the magnet approaches the electromagnets of the same polarity the one or more switches turns on the closest electromagnet coil, creating a repulsive electromagnetic field pushing the magnet in an opposite direction towards the opposite electromagnet and switching the power off of the one electromagnet and thereafter switching the power on of the opposite electromagnet creating a repulsive magnetic field to push the magnet in a returning opposite direction, each movement of the magnet generating an electric current in the central coil to charge the battery.

Abstract
A power generation apparatus 100 has a moving permanent magnet 10 having a north polarity (N) at a first end 11 and a south polarity (S) at an opposite second end 12; a pair of electromagnets 20,22 are positioned with one being in proximity to each end 11,12 of the moving permanent magnet 10. Each electromagnet 20, 22 has a coil 25, 26 wrapped around a central iron core 27, 28. When activated the electromagnets 20, 22 provide a repulsive force of the same polarity as the nearest respective end 11 or 12 of the permanent magnet 10. The apparatus 100 further has one or more switches 32, 33 for activating each electromagnet 20, 22 and a central coil 40 encircling the permanent magnet 10 and a battery 50 connected to the central coil 40. Within the central core 40 the permanent magnet 10 is moving repeatedly toward each electromagnet 20 and 22 and as the N or S end of the magnet 10 approaches the electromagnet 20 or 22 of the same polarity the one or more switches 32, 33 turns the closest electromagnetic coil 25 or 26 on creating a repulsive electromagnetic field pushing the magnet 10 in an opposite direction towards the opposite electromagnet 20 or 22. These movements also switch power off of the one electromagnet 20 or 22 and thereafter switching the power on of the opposite electromagnet 20 or 22 creating a repulsive magnetic field to push the magnet 10 in a returning opposite direction. Each movement of the magnet 10 generates an electric current in the central coil 40 to power a light 30 used to activate the switches 32, 33 and to charge the battery 50 while any excess electricity generated can be used to power other devices.
