    Default SolarSphere / Solar Magnet Engine

    Hello together,

    I would like to introduce you to my new project.
    I call it "Solar Sphere".
    It's an almost wearfree rotating sphere.
    Because of magnets on the shaft and the substructure, it is able to float.

    1 Hour of sunlight is enough to rotate the sphere for 2,5 days.
    It took me 3 month to plan and build this construction.

    So i would be glad, if you watch my video and tell me your opinion.

    Have fun

    Default SolarSphere 4.0 - the little brother

    Dear CNC friends,
    from my experiences of the last years, I have now built the final version of the SolarSphere.

    SolarSphere 4.0
    The advantages over the Model 3.0 are:
    The drive (including lighting and loading module) as well as the substructure and the sphere are independent modules.
    The sphere is made of polycarbonate and therefore insensitive to external influences.
    The new rotor design eliminates the need for balancing.
    The lighting is variable (the LEDs are plugged in and can be replaced by other coloured ones at any time).
    Electricity consumption has been reduced by 80%.
    The charging module (including USB connection) shows the operating status of the Lipo battery visually.
    The magnetic bearing is stabilized and makes the rotor insensitive to vibrations.
    These changes significantly reduce costs and production time.
    SolarSphere 4.0: W=212mm D=148mm H=176mm

    How it works is explained in the video down below.





    Thanks for your interest

    Wolfram

    The magnetic suspension is impressive.

    Cheers
