This is a very old generator "magneto" for phone calls.This is my moost expensive restoration, it cost me 40 euro.
A telephone magneto is a hand-cranked electrical generator that uses permanent magnets to produce alternating current from the rotating armature.In early telegraphy magnnetos were used to power instruments, while in telephony they were used to generate electrical current to drive electromechanical ringer in telephone sets and on operaor consoles.
I hope you like it this restoration, if you want to send me someting to restore please let me know!

Thanks for this. Similar units to these were still in use back when I was doing my apprenticeship in the 70s. It was part of our job to refurbish them. They were located in remote railway signal locations and used on a party line to call the signal box, railway stations or other signal locations using a call code. The units we worked on had a make/break button (press to make) and depending who you were calling depended on the (simple) code you rang out, controlling sig box was usually a long ring and other sig locations were a series of short rings. As a (very young) kid our farm had a party line as well and our code was 1 long + 3 short (B), next farm was 1 long + 1 short + 1 long (K), over the back was R and up the road was H. Exchange was 1 long, but without the make/break button, had to do it with the handle, generally 3 turns long, 1 turn short. Was great to see them again, brought back many great memories Thanks & Cheers 🇦🇺 🍺🍺

Thanks for sharing, I was wondering about a timeframe for the use of these, I was thinking they fell fully out of use much earlier like the '50s or so, it's very cool to learn that this old tech stayed kicking in some capacity all the way up into the '70s. Side note, I couldn't help but wonder if that "98" on the bottom might mean 1898. Probably not, it looks like some sort of manufacture or inspection code, but it's still a neat thought.

@laszlofyre845 4 жыл бұрын

The signalbox DC autophones were an easier bet! No frantic winding, just press the code on one of four buttons (IIRC, red, black, green or white. Remember them? Our local 'box was two short presses on black). Incidentally, I worked in a shop in 73 that had 2 branches 1/4 mile apart, and we had a direct line between the two worked by these.

I went to a progressive all-girls high school at a time when it was rare for girls to take such classes. We made an a.m. radio. I very clandestinely threw a wooden thread spool with loosely wrapped copper wire out the second story classroom window, shimmied up a steel beam and secured the copper wire to the top of the bus awning for an antenna. Got 2 different stations! Thanks for the great memories!!

Lots of work to make it beautiful. To avoid damaging the insulating laquer on coiled copper wires, they sell an electric motor cleaning spray, but the best way is dusting and dry paint brush, with mild soapy water if neccesary to clean grease. Many solvent sprays will eat the clear coat protection on the coils, especially old ones. Cool video. I'm subscribing!

Did you verify the poles of the magnets before repainting the black ends? I believe the black ends identified one of the poles (North or South), the end not painted black the other pole. If you mix them up the magnets will cause bucking currents within the coils and reduce your voltage and power output.

I don't think it's impractical. If you watch the old movies, you can see, that all it took was about one seconds of twisting that thing, for making a call. The rest had to be done by the operator. And it's more environmentally friendly. Image all the applications that Grumpy John listed, plus even more he didn't write down, used by billions of people world wide - that would save the need for some nuclear plants. Also it has the big bonus, of being independent, in case of power failures, that's especially important for making emergency calls. With today's IP based telephony, the non availability of emergency calls leads to an increasing number of casualities. There are already statistics about this problem. The whole IP infrastructure is notoriously unreliable, and using this for emergency situations is like setting a fox to keep the geese.

@ct92404 5 жыл бұрын

Telephone magnetos can generate up to 100 volts, or even more with bigger 5-bar ones. And you don't even have to crank it that fast. Not only are they a cool display as an antique, but I can definitely think of a lot of practical uses! Hook up a small gas engine to it (like maybe even a weed eater engine) and you have a very light, portable emergency generator. Connect a rectifier to convert the output to DC, and you can use it to recharge batteries, power a radio, etc.

This ist a really nice restoration again, but i was wondering if the center Magnet may be not correctly oriented. When the black paint marking is applied, the magnets stuck to each other, which should not be the case as the magnets must have equal field orientation for operation in this generator. When the magnets e.g. north poles are getting marked black, the poles should have repelled and would need to be forced to stay side by side. If they stuck together as seen in the video the orientation would be NSN or SNS. video at 13:26

Make a module that has a capacitor bank that feeds a 5v step down converter, that powers a female USB port :) Good luck though, although it would work, it will take a very long time to charge a cell phone. Also, the difficulty in turning will be related to the amount of current supplying, so you will probably need to add an inline resistor before the capacitor bank to keep the handle from being totally locked up when the capacitors are uncharged.

@Michael DiLorenzo Capacitor bank would allow you to be a bit inconsistent with your crank speed, large enough and it will allow you to take momentary breaks.

You could if you stepped down the voltage and rectified it to DC...but why would you want to? I definitely wouldn't want to be sitting there, cranking it for an hour. Now if you hooked up a small engine to crank it instead, then you'd have a small, lightweight generator that you could use to recharge batteries or whatever else you want to do...THEN you'd be in business.

some pretty smart comments for youtube XD it's been a while since i was able to read something based entirely on physics that i agree with and i fully understand the principles behind but not the actual laws at hand, AKA i learned something without needing to learn a bunch of support material, and that is always the best isn't it?

I just watched this video for about the third time over the past year. One thing that you can do with it is make a clear cover for it and add all of the polished metal trim to it. With a wooden cover, you cannot see the inner workings or beauty of your hard work. 😎👍. You are a true master.
