How long will the Dominant Wheel turn before slowing to a stop? It appears to be wonderfully simple. Congratulations on a great build. Very interesting.

You have done a splendid job on something that is very difficult for many home machinists, that is, getting bearings to line up so smoothly, they seem to flow effortlessly. This is by far the smoothest-running fake engine I have ever seen.

great job that's a very interesting motor

Great demo, I learned a lot by watching. the flywheel and the spring are both like capacitors and tuning the spring to be in harmony with the speed of the rotation, beautiful work.

Darn....Now I have to go out in my shop and start playing again....Thank You Very Much.....( more please )....Jeff

Similar to an electronic RLC circuit. Resonance between the inertial moments of the flywheel and spring produce optimal feedback, like pushing someone on a swing with only a light touch.

Magnificent contraption,Bravo Sir!

I found this very fascinating ! A few months ago I did a simulation in Working Model with a flywheel and a spring and I was astounded to find that the wheel accelerated, albeit slowly.

Geniálne.. Ďakujem...

👍🇧🇷🙏🏼RJ MUITO OBRIGADO PELA OPORTUNIDADE DE APRENDER COM SEUS VÍDEOS.

Very cool for such a simple device!

This is a great little device...I think this has great potential just from studying it. If you can add a bit of drag to the flywheel without it stopping, I would bet you could power a small model dc motor and light up a few LEDs...Just a thought. Like this alot.

Interesting ! Hmm, normally it should stop due to friction !

How long does the battery last?

Ive been working on the same thing here in the states. Ive found that if i use a massively overpowered spring and gearing i can get a 300 watt generator to run for hours.

The strength in this design is in the fact that it works with the difference in tension of the spring. The flywheel pushes the spring down at is farest (weakest) point and the spring pushes the flywheel back up on the shortest (stronger) point. Works only in one direction. and the power is also very weak. Nice work though! ;-)

Beautiful English engineering at its best well done sir !!! Yes it works !!! hahaha and what I gentleman to share such a wonderful work with the rotten people of this earth hahahah wow .... You can fill the honesty in this man !!! Its got gravity written all over it !! Can it make energy ? yes !!! But for now its inspiration is so simple its been hidden for almost 14 billion years hahaha lol xx

muy bueno,es algo sensillo de hacer,solo tengo una curiosidad,la energía se pierde en la fricción?? puede funcionar por horas???

@SPRING POWERED MOTOR Awesome Innovation. Hope its a perpetual machine.

So, very cool, but notice that when he is moving the object, there is a white circle on the table that is very obviously stays within. My guess is there is something under the table of sorts. I think the device would work, but slow down in time from friction. The speeding up...hmm.....reverse spring below? Not sure.

Obviously advanced alien technology!

You are an illusionist....rotor is run with hidden electromagnetic field. You are great illusionist.

How long does it rotate before it stops?

If there's a sound, there should be an excess energy, right? Also, please, take a look on Milkovic's Two-Stage oscillator... Nice video, thanks!

I was thinking about it but can't tell why it should work. On the one hand the spring plate is lighter to push down when the leverage is larger but on the other hand, when the crank is pushed upwards while the leverage is shorter and the push stronger, the leverage of the flywheel isn't the same so finally, with material friction involved, we got less than zero net gain...

What is the longest you can make it run?

Nice work I really enjoyed the video. From what did you get the spring from ? Thanks

how did you build this was it a hobby kit? did you get the design form old books?

A rare piece of ingenuity. It's got the Victorian era written all over it, with a small dose of Steptoe and Son. I like that. There might be a way to extract energy from this device... given that it does actually defy Newton's first law (there are many devices that have done this). Step 1/ Extend the drive shaft and affix a permanent ring of 12 rotor magnets... Step 2/ Then place a stator wreath of 9 copper coils (configured properly, ala Tesla 3 phase) very close to the rotor, as in face to face, and hey presto! free electricity A.d. infinitum. Get onto it Bailywick1, the race is on. I want to see some results for my two cents worth. Well done old boy! P.S. Every new idea is always met with skepticism... tell 'em to take a hike.

i love spring engine work.. i need to test it :D

Hello, Is there an electromagnet beneath the table that is pulsing the motor to keep it going? Old magicians trick. To prove it isn't there kindly lift the motor off the table about a couple of feet.

So. Is the purpose of the spring and weight to regulate the speed? Because the flywheel itself is storing the energy provided from the initial push.. seems like the spring would just cause unnecessary friction... unless thre purpose were to regulate the speed... which would come at thecost of that added friction.

Yes quite remarkable, as far as above unity we agree with CHRIS BROESKY bro in a vacuum and less resistance in the barrings, an above unity output might be possible

The energy is there. I would closer at the resistive load of weight. :^)

y,ou should patent it , a bit larger and you could make a home generator from this idea its excellent . just put magnets round the flywheel and coils nearby, and make it bigger and you have a winner ....welll done ...very exciting method best wishes from S.e.r.L.

Absolutely awesome and lovely. Got to see this video via Robert TnT. Thankyou for the upload!

It seems like you have to load the spring on the long side so that it pushes off from the short side. Hence, this motor runs in one direction only.

very cool idea

that is so awesome

I like it... I would so mod this to do other things :)

It would be interesting to see a larger scale model, and se if it also runs when it’s bigger and stronger, that way there could be some kind of potential for a motor that could be strong enough to actually give out some energy, without running out of it too fast itself, sure it might only run for a few minutes, before having to restart it, but long enough to charge a battery a bit, without having to put too much muscle energy into it.

what do you mean by spare energy? that is great!!

This spring would counter act each direction and stop between lobes maybe with larger flywheel and many libked together could keep constand preasures around the 360 degree radius of the wheel

Build one 30 ft. across 45 ft. deep. Ok? Good, then its all settled. How long will it run?

"Lets give a spin and away it goes"- well not without quickly getting his left hand to reposition the baseplate, ( at 1min 47secs into the video) whereupon the device picks up speed... Listen carefully and you will hear some whispered advice too shortly after that. What if the 'weight' concealed a strong magnet and there was also a pulsing magnetic system out of view below the surface upon which he is operating the device. My guess is that would account for the manual intervention and repositioning to get the best effect. "What do you think of that" he says. A pity !

That's awesome.

Fantastic. It's is actually very close to perpetual

That works cause---Mass has a 1/100 sec. a super mass inertia---it goes in without loose much movement and than the mass on the spring jumpes back with this more Power. Another device is from Henry Bull 1934 -Thanks a lot !!!

Very Nice !!!!!

The crank pin is the commutator, the spring is the brushes, the motor is behind the crank, the weight is full of button batteries, the screw is a potentiometer (speed control). The epoxy is really Fiberglas resin and the table cloth needs washing. Cuz otherwise that won't run. or He's a magician..

What if you put a big ring magnet outside the flywheel and used a coil from a microwave transformer to make some electricity for a little led nightlight?

Ould you attach a very lightweight coil to the spring that moves past a fixed magnet?? If it can be done it might just generate a tiny amount of current. If your intrigued get in touch and we'll talk about it.

You could sell them with fan blades for summer if you could get that to work. The amount of good that could do for the environment is worth you trying. I'd love to have one and so would any overheating poor person I imagine. Good luck 🍀

Everyone, this is fake. BUT, don't look at these videos as "fake or real?". Instead just enjoy the design of the machine. There are many different ways you could build a "perpetual motor", the fun in these videos comes from the clever design concepts.

fantastic

What is equation behind this ? So we make lots of electricity by running it ?

Дед, не томи! Давай уже покажи, куда запрятал батарейку и моторчик. :) :) :)

Great video! Have you thought of attaching some neodymium magnets to your fly wheel and placing a coil array above it to generate electricity?

Creo haber leido casi todos los comentarios, NO VI NI UNO SOLO de alguien que lo hubiese replicado, sólo opinólogos. Yo trayé de replicarlo, hice cientos de combinaciones, distintas masas, contrapesos, largos, resortes, excéntricas, etc y no hubo caso, NO funcionó. Teóricamente debería funcionar si se usa el resorye y la ubicación apropiados pero en lamprácticano funciona o al menos yo no pude hacerlo.

Very good chap

Finally found you neighbor! Pizza next week? Beer down the pub sometime soon?

What's going on here?! It's a wheel spinning because he spins it, adding rotational energy. It's not an engine, it's a wheel. The spring doesn't add energy, it take some energy to be pushed down and then add some energy when it springs back, but the net energy is always a loss.

Very nice👍

😅 as if the force of the spring woldnt stop the flyweal😂😂 Please stop the world! I wat to get out 😂😂

Looks to me like an alternative to a clock escapement if that's what we want?

Nice

gooood

it's soooooooper

I replicated this engine like five times already and couldn't make it work like this one. I think my springs are garbage... Or maybe I forgot to put the electric motor on mine.

Does it make the flywheel run longer or...... If it doesn't, then what could possibly be the purpose?

The same force that pushes the sprig down is the same force that pushes it up. The two forces are equal. So, it will not rotate.

It makes sence to me BECAUSE it hits the spring at the end and then after center it gets more power Because its farther back the spring flex point the end is like a long pry bar how long it will run i dont know but spins one direction ONLY

I would like to see a v 8 model 4 springs on each side angled at 45° with a biger flywheel . Make one sir Getter done please.

Minute 3:40 the speed increases by itself...?? mmmm....

What are the Calculations for this piece?

This guy made one video about free a freeenergy machine and then, disappears never to be seen again?.......lol

If spring runs wheel cant screw refill spring and have extra power

this would run a whimshurst machine

how can i buy one of these from you assembled?

Could this be used to produce electricity or power for small appliances?

You could make a phonograph outta that

Construction video please..

At 3:39 it significantly gained speed, I really can’t see how this is possible. Is one of the grey bit around the axle a motor?

Oh hold on, it would have to be the other way round so's the coil doesn't move. That way the current can be fed easily from the coil without causing too much bother

Can you sell me some of your junk so I can make one for myself?? Put together a kit for me

look at both connected bearings at the rotating shaft, one is bigger, thats a motor . its a visual illsuion model.

Nice looking concept, but this ain't real for two reasons (1.) The man in the video would have mass produced this to generate useful energy (2.) The principle of energy conservation, there is no resultant energy created. The crank pin rotates and LOOSES energy as it pushes down the spring, the same amount of energy or less is what it GAINS from the spring as the spring pushes it up.

Can you send specifications of the motor ?

you have created a perpetual motion machine. Congratulations

The simple fact of physics is you don’t get nowt for owt ......meaning you do not get something for nothing ....if you watch the video carefully you will notice 1. The flywheel accelerates as soon as the Crank pin touches the spring(indicating that it is powered by a motor) 2. The gentleman rotates the whole divide around an axis indicating that there are wires coming through the table. 3. The gentleman is very careful to position the crank pin as far away from the spring as possible this is to stop it accidentally triggering the motors. 4. The two Aluminium spacers look very much like brushless cd drive motors. And lastly you cannot ignore the laws of physics.

how long will keep spinning like that for?

Hi, can you hold it in the air ??? Please. When not, why not?

I built a very large version of one of these and hooked a 10000 watt generator to it it works great running my house unfortunately I had no way to charge my phone battery because it was dead so I don't have any video of it but it works great

I see a potential to make energy with this idea ..by using multiple springs and may be an automotive camshaft or similar by using a v8 cam shaft and a small engine flywheel you could possibly use the flywheel and its original alternator to generate electricity in stead of 1 spring you could have 16 times the power out put you could even possibly use rollers on the springs to reduce friction ? This could be a really interesting power source.. I love the pendulum weight idea as a way to fine tune the pressure applied

Wow! Can you attach a small dc motor to that and make a generator to power led's?

smart

Good work

Где батарейку спрятал?

I think that the acceleration is obtained by gravity that is joined to the plate.the burden created by the rotation of the flywheel pressure plate down so easily that speed fall significantly but not to stop the flywheel So be under the influence of gravity even slightly bounces so that the sheet will try to return to its original state ... BUT already created a momentum of gravity that is joined to the platethus increasing the chances of the flywheel to go free next 75% as momentum will even got to do the same pressure and so in the way of work is gained 0.01% which gives him the chance to continue its work (google translate)

I think there is a white cable beneath
