Vehicle with magnetic engine
First Claim
1. A vehicle comprising a vehicle frame fitted with axles and wheels rotatably carried by said axles;
- an engine block mounted on said frame;
a plurality of magnetic cylinders provided in said engine block and a plurality of magnetic pistons disposed in said magnetic cylinders, respectively, in reciprocating relationship, said magnetic cylinders having a first magnetic polarity in one end and a second magnetic polarity in the opposite end for alternately attracting and repelling said magnetic pistons, respectively;
a crankshaft journalled for rotation in said engine block;
power transmission means connecting said crankshaft to at least one of said axles in driving relationship; and
connecting rods connecting said crankshaft to said magnetic pistons, respectively, whereby reciprocation of said magnetic pistons in said magnetic cylinders effects rotation of said crankshaft;
a cylinder head provided on said engine block and piston electromagnetic means provided in said cylinder head above said magnetic cylinders and said magnetic pistons, respectively for alternately attracting and repelling said magnetic pistons;
at least one batter carried by said frame; and
polarity timing means electrically connected to said battery and said piston electromagnetic means, for alternating the polarity of said piston electromagnet means, whereby electric current is supplied to said piston electromagnetic means in current-reversing relationship to alternately attract and repel said magnetic pistons in reciprocating relationship responsive to operation of said polarity timing means.

Abstract
A vehicle powered by a magnetic engine, which engine includes a block fitted with multiple cylinders for receiving magnetic pistons attached to a crankshaft and electromagnets mounted in the engine head for magnetically operating the magnetic pistons by electric current reversal. A polarity timer is connected to the vehicle battery through a variable resistor which serves as an accelerator to vary the current through the respective electromagnets and operate the magnetic pistons at a desired speed. Alternating current is generated at the rear axle of the vehicle by means of an alternating current generator, which current is stepped up and rectified to direct current for charging the battery, by operation of a battery charging device.
