Three disks
Excenter-arm-disk
Here left side, by a cross-sectional view, that excenter-arm is shown. Now, this component no more will look like an arm or lever or crank (but still will work that kind), but does look like a ´moon-sickle´. To be more stable, at one side, this part could have a disk with a drilling (dotted circle) within. Right side, at the longitudinal-section view one may see, how this drilling hole may be uses as a bearing, turnable around the shaft of excenter-bearing (EL) and thus around the excenter-axis.
Rotor-disk
Analog to the excenter-arm, at one side of the rotor-disk a small disk may be mounted, again with a central drilling hole (dotted circle), free space for the central excenter-shaft. While the rotor-wheel will turn around the rotor-excenter-point, the rotor-axis will turn around the excenter-axis (EA).
Rotor-arm-disk
On order to get free space in the center, the rotor-bearing here is fix mounted at rotor-arms in shape of a ring. These rotor-arms would make sence, outside all to be fix mounted within a cylinder (ZY).
The center of the rotor-bearing, still the rotor-axis will be, which itself will turn concentric around the system axis (SA).
Disk including disk
Right outside, for example, the rotor-arm-cylinder by a disk with drilling is mounted turnable around the system-axis (SA). This fix shaft, then is reduced to the excenter-bearing (EL) around the excenter-axis (EA). So here, excentrity will show from system-axis downwards.
Here are drawn two modules: left side the mass of rotor-wheel (RR) is positioned at its inner dead point, opposite at the right side the mass will be at its outer track-point (both relativ to system-axis).
These components here, partly do show very small walls and also the bearings are but at one side. So this design seems to make some problems. At the other hand the rotor-wheel all times will be positioned between parts of rotor-arm and excenter-arm. Above that, here these drillings within the disks aside are designed that way, the mass-points will be hold all times opposite the excenter-bearing. Thus at a whole, stable construction and motions may be achieved (until a better solution will be found, see below).
Balancing mass
Opposite, the excenter-arm here will show mass-concentration opposite to the rotor-bearing, thus opposite to the effective rotor-mass at its outer track-point. This will be an essential advantage with regard to balancing of the system as a whole.
The excenter-arms must be accelerated by the rotor-arm until the summit of the apple-track is achieved, while afterward the motion of the excenter-arm will be slowed down. The high kinetic energy of the rotor-mass and the (opposite) mass of excenter-arm, won´t allow resp. does effect counter that deceleration. Thus the rotor-arm (by the rotor-wheel) and thus the systems turning will be accelerated. That kind, that ´balancing mass´ of excenter-arm will make sence and effect twice.
The central fix shaft is ´cranked´. At this area between modules, a rotor-arm (RT) may be mounted turnable at the system-axis. In the central area of that maschine, there is enough space for a stable fix shaft. Thus also more than these four modules here could be an assembly. Now one may see, there is but few volume vasted, but most of the available surface effective mass will be.
Results
Even all bearings do include each other, nevertheless that famous picture of crop circle not completly fits to that design. Thus, further functions must be integrated there. However, that maschine already looks similar. Thus it might be, but few steps will lead to the ideal.
Evert / 06.01.2000
Resulting of conciderations above, in principle three components will be neccessary:
rotor-arm and excenter-arm and rotor-wheel (plus central shaft and casing etc.).
At the Threefold-crank-concept above was found, that rotor-wheel also could be of larger size, nearby to the central bearing of the excenter-arm. Now, that point of view shall be extended, in order to include all bearings one within the others. So the aim will be to achieve a solution similar to threefold-including half-moons at this crop circle picture.
So it will make sence, to enlarge the rotor-wheel over the excenter-axis, towards the other side of the central area. Thus, the excenter-arm (ET) should show a circle-surface as large as possible, in order to include and bearing the rotor-wheel as a whole. The center of this bearing will be the rotor-excenter-point (RE), while the center of the excenter-arm as a whole still the excenter-axis (EA) will be.
Into the free circle surface of the excenter-arm, the disk of the rotor-wheel (RR) will fit. The center of the rotor-wheel, the rotor-excenter-point (RE) will be, like above. Within the rotor-wheel, again an excentric circle surface must be free in order to take the rotor-bearing with its center around the rotor-axis (RA). The remaining excentric surface, again like a moon-sickle, will be the effective mass, here marked by a mass-center-point (MP).
Into the free surface of the rotor-wheel, the rotor-bearing (RL) will fit. The rotor-bearing is a shaft, fix mounted at the rotor-arm (RT). As the mass of the rotor-arm no effect will show, its mass should be as less as possible. Thereto, the rotor-bearing here is drawn as a hollow shaft.
At figure EVDS 02 below, by cross-sectional view, these components one within the other are shown. At EVDS 02 right upside, a corresponding longitudinal-section view is shown.
Turning of excenter-arm will not be constant. As the mass of excenter-arm will not be concentric, so high centrifugal forces will exist. That´s why above, at propulsion maschines, was proposed to construct the excenter-arm heavy outside.
Kompact construction
At EVDS 03 the longitudinal-section view above is shown once more, but left side two more modules are added. Their excentrity by 180 degrees will differ (versus the right two modules), their excenter-axis (EA) thus here will be upside the (overall same) system-axis (SA). Again, one mass-point of the rotor-wheels (RR) will be maximum inside, the other maximum outside on its track.
By this Three-disk-maschine, the aim above was achieved: all bearings here are put one into the other. By that design, an extraordinary compact unit is developed. If it´s true, by a sling-shot a stone will be thrown more effective than by fix (lever-) arm, than this maschine will produce energy.
