: : you are right with your opinion Øystein.
: : The calculation is correct.
: : I don't use springs in my solution, i transfer the 'Stop energy' to the weights and get a higher start-point.
: : So a lot of solutions are possible.
: : Best regards

: Thanx for your comment, as I have studied your solution for a gravityconverter earlier, I think I know how you harness the centrifugal forces !?
: Actually your principle has been suggested back in history, but I don`t know if it has been buildt, but I have seen drawings.
: As a overbalanced gravity priciple, it of course balances, but because your weights travel further, and therfor set up a higher speed when falling, the centrifugal forces are unbalanced
: after you have sped up the machine !
: As your weights Do supply "negative" force to the wheel,
: (in attempt to furfill Newtons W = mgh) bacause they are "held" out, this negative force is replaced by centrifugalforces, because the centrifugal forces will try to push your weights out to the side, as they fall.
: Am I right ?
: Øystein
yes, you are right. I am preparing deep-links to my web-page,
so that you are able to look at the newest developements.
