| Abstract:
An inventor from southern Poland has developed a mobile system in
the form of a "perpetuum mobile" wheel. The inventor is looking for
a co-operation partner interested in starting serial manufacturing
and co-operation in searching for possible applications of the
developed device. |
| Description:
An inventor from southern Poland has developed a mobile system in
the form of a "perpetuum mobile" wheel. The device is made of a base
with vertical supports attached. There are guides attached to the
supports, and the axle of the wheel hanging over the base rests on
those guides. Once the wheel is put to motion in any position it
rotates round its axle due to an electronic system, causing rolling
of the wheel axle along the guides. When the wheel axle approaches
the end of the guides the wheel stops smoothly, changes the
direction of its linear movement to an opposite one and rolls
towards the other end of the guides. The same situation repeats on
both ends so the wheel remains in continuing motion. The controlling
electronic system is mounted inside the device together with the
battery. Building supports of various lengths to the base and
changing of the moving element's appearance are possible. The wheel
put in motion is very expressive and exceptionally decorative. This
original technical gadget can have multiple applications, e.g. in
advertising, education and interior decoration.
Innovative
