Magnetic Gear systems (Zen Magnets)

[ddr85]

power transmission w/o a clutch and no noise from teeth smacking each other. Could be very efficient too. Nice.

[Pwon1992]

that's fuckin amazin, nice song to go with it as well

[Billabang2384]

This is my favorite video of all time

Pirates of the Caribbean theme song (Techno) in the background :D

[Alex30169]

Patten that. Make big bucks.

[dorgodorato]

Magnetic gears+super conductor axles+super cooled gear box= Most expensive/efficient reduction gear system imaginable! (pole slippage warning/timing gears not allowed)

[86coffeemaker]

How much load could applied to that particular gear system before the magnetic fields are forced through one another? Good idea by the way,aside from benefits of less friction the gears would also eliminate alot of the noise that geared machines produce.

[lizallgood]

Love the Pirates Of the Caribbean music in the background

[Itis0ne]

awesome gears with out the loss of energy from friction you can make a lot of money if you prefect this

[ozzyscruggs1]

Add a coil of wire, and you can generate electricity from any node.

[blackshadowofmysoul]

Coooll, :)

[imnotdavidxnsx]

lol @ techno pirates

[RuneScapeGuides1011]

Okay, somebody really needs to tell me what a magnet is...

[eckertanthony]

so badass :P. haha

[intheshitter]

I wonder if it would be possible to make a frictionless clutch this way?

[ojkolsrud1]

If you can find a way to seal off each of the columns, so that the magnets would still have their gear-functionality without falling off at high speeds, you could make some serious money patenting this. Imagine being able to transfer force with less loss due to friction in any mechanical industry.

[bgshrimpin]

what are you shooting this video with could you PM/DM me? I don't log onto youtube very often, but I'm very curious

[zaggaona]

well the magnetic force between each coloumn is completly independent from the one being turned manually so theoretically you can build a massive contraption like this and it would work.

[ClickMadeInChina]

I don't see why people don't just use these instead of gears because there would be no friction between them so it would be really efficient.

[TheNeocubeGirl]

OH. MY . GOSH. HOW MANY DO YOU HAVE?!?!!?

[jimsp71]

u should flip one of them (so polarity is apposing) then it could perpetuate them selves once motion is started

[Bordtennisbold]

AWESOME! (-;



[OoStefborgoO]

Pirates of the Caribean Background music, awesome!

[ChozoSR388]

This could revolutionize the way gear boxes are made! A low-friction Neodymium gear setup! Fantastic!

[LeagueFatigue]

I believe you can create an electric generator using those 2 magnets, with the help of WIND or FLOWING WATER.

If you place a + magnet at position 1, a - magnet at position 0, a + magnet at position -1 and a - magnet at position -2, you can initate a infinite loop that creates energy, the loop has to be initiated by a natural power source.

Risks: magnets can acquire enough energy to break apart(needs speed limiter).

I'm not sure if my theory is right..

[NickNackFreak1]

Was that hard to make???

[TeamExileMedia]

Do you get really high when you make these?

[jrw6137]

1:06 put a small electro motor inside it and get it an usb connector then place it at work on ur desk

[scanningallvidzs]

anyone thought of using this concept in gearboxes?

[T3RRABYT3]

I bet you could make a free energy device if you mess with the level of polarity and some mods

[pharm1recon1]

looks like something from matrix revolution

[headlightguy]

answer to the worlds energy problems locked away in magnets and sacred geometry

[mclovin1JB]

i just came because this as fucking awesome

[bullseye887]

is it possible to generate elecrticity from this

[saca199602]

HOW MANY MAGNETS?????

[LTS1287]

This is a great way to model molecular machinery.

[42DuckyDuckers]

You have a lot of magnets! Lucky!!!

Those are cool! I'm going to try to make one.

[chinesemonk]

THEY MOVE EACH OTHER BUT THEY AREN'T ACTUALLY TOUCHING I DON'T UNDERSTAND

[TheBenMontoya2011]

@chinesemonk Magnets. Do you not understand magnetic force? Stay in school. -__-

[DjayLivv]

thumbs up if you think he should make deadmau5 head with zen magnets

[AflacMan13]

Whoever said that science isn't cool was an idiot.

[bigkopes3]

tiesto <3

[MatthewJLeming]

It relaxes me to watch that thing to work but I don't know why...

[nstgc379]

Gears that don't wear out...amazing.

[jayhawk184]

now if you could have both magnetic cylinders floating you may have created a frictionless gear drive, making almost limitless rpms, maybe? idk im just a stoner

[15moftv]

thumbs up for thumb rings.

[hendersonn11]

this is sick!

[liOVERLOADil]

You've just invented a lube-less gearing system! Not for high torque systems, but still cool!

[RubertaLang]

Absolutely fantastic!

[MARV361theSTAR]

bad ass

[pricematt]

You discovered the replacement for the gear

[valeris98]

cooooooooooooooool!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!



[FoamKittyGamer]

I wonder if you could make a clock with those? However, there might be problems when using magnets in mechanics..

[rodolfopro]

Este tipo tiene magnetismo. 

[PeanutButtahJelleh]

xD MAGNETISM ADDICTION!

[Coml3teBliss]

I like it!

[idlevalley]

The beginnings of frictionless mechanics. Hopefully in the future we will build machines that don't wear or break down and last forever.

[williamcrabtree]

good concepts there. possible engineering apps could be used, have to boost magnetic poles with electro magnets. could make transmisions, engines, maybe even generators.

[jungleman68]

our new engines!

[Chulpasa]

Fuuuuck!!! this is a huge collection

[ochoa495]

I love bones bearings!;D



[easychief62]

thats hela creative 

[Shickoon]

So you should work for like... ya NASA or something

[alicorevenom199]

When I saw the ball I was like "HOLY SHIT"!

[pathosbedlam]

I was thinking if you scaled it up a bit, and used neo's, you might be able to make a cvt gearbox for a car that had no touching parts, and didn't wear out. But hey, your the dudes with all the magnets. So maybe you should do that before someone else does.

[mikurej95]

wonder if there would be a way to make it spin indefinitely

[PoisonBull1271]

dat look like sum turntables

[TOKYO3GOU]

very interesting and cool !



[linkone22]

Youve gotta be F*@king rich

[KrullWarKing]

Is there actually a gear or is it attraction?

[mybffisblake]

DAMN ! ! ! you got a alot of zen magnets

[KaiqueSumatso]

Great job.

[ILYUHA16]

вот на ком разбогател создатель Neo-Cub'а

[jfleminator]

that is fucking awesome!

[superbsheep]

gotta meet u someday!

[MrAwesomeCoolBeanz]

trippy 

[polarchuck999]

I think engineers should start figuring out a way to make a magnetic gear system where you turn the gear once, and it spins indefinitly

[LedoBom]

@polarchuck999 Just the fact of no friction to transmit the power from one axis to the other is amazing. Put these on bikes and you get a no maintenance transmission, also dirt-proof.

[MrCooldude518]

you have an amazing collection of magnets

[Procrastinatathor]

Now that is a LOT of magnets.

[hatetolovelovetohate]

if magnets wre currency, youd be bill gates....

[LoLsean21]

Are thos bones reds bearings on the gears ?

[sebhag99]

Is that a hip hop version of the pirates of the Caribbean theme song? Somebody tell me if the think so. PS. Ur magnet gear things are awesome!!!

[HYPRKLSTRKMPLX]

@sebhag99

Thx! It is DJ Tiesto radio on pandora, just happened to come on while we were filming. I guess he mixed some pirate into his tracks.

[Xhueloe]

@HYPRKLSTRKMPLX Tiësto - He's A Pirate.

Elements Of Life

[AflacMan13]

@HYPRKLSTRKMPLX Yes that is Dj Tiesto's "He's a Pirate"... I have it on my IPod... pretty good song, it would sort of fit this video actually.

[Tighen31305]

@HYPRKLSTRKMPLX That's hilarious. I just got done listening to this song before watching this video.

[KevinKayotic]

@sebhag99 that doesn't even sound like hip hop???? are you retarded??

[rynstrss]

@sebhag99 search 'the black pearl temix' by scotty on youtube



[eraserprout]

@sebhag99 Dj Tiësto - He's A Pirate

[jacketnipple]

@sebhag99 i like how you made the focus of the video look like a minor aspect

[ghintec]

@sebhag99 Called - He's a Pirate

[hymn1337]

@sebhag99 its called hes a pirate, by DJ tiesto.

[bombersander]

@sebhag99 actually dj tiesto is the original creator of the pirates of the carribean song! the song you heard on the background is the first song, right before pirates of the carribean 1, its an old but nice song

[Tjaxart]

@sebhag99 Tiesto - He's a pirate

[19CroatiaPower98]

@sebhag99 i have that sonfg i think ist shaggy pirates of the carribean radio remix or something like that :P

[wangsta405]

@sebhag99 He's a pirate by Dj tiesto

[H0R53FR34K]

@sebhag99 Its from the Album "Elements of Life" made by Tiesto.

Its a bonus- track contained in it!

[Aesirww]

reverse the polarity of the balls on one side and watch as you create free energy

[awesome8420]

i hear pirates of the caribbean the black pearl in the back ground :D

[xXFlamexWolfXx]

SO.......MANY.......MAGNETS...­...TO HELL WITH THE GEARS I WANNA SEE ALL THE OTHER STUFF YOU MADE O_O

[Sonnentau1]

I love Pirates of the Caribbean^^

[SpadesNeil]

The future. It is this.

[jezarius]

You seem to have more than two sets

[xShazamboobam]

So many fresh clean bearings.. I'm hoping you bought low abec rating ones in bulk, or that probably got expensive.

[HYPRKLSTRKMPLX]

@xShazamboobam

On the Contrary, high abec ratEd reds bones bearings. Some high priced fuggin ish.

[youseufs]

@HYPRKLSTRKMPLX bones reds the win, you definitively skate lol

[Gdunn585]

@xShazamboobam You think the bearings were pricy, look at all those fucking magnets...

[foamy111111]

lol love the pirates of the Caribbean music in the back ground :D lol

[eden5001]

cool that's awesome

[eden5001]

kool thats awesome

[1john1992]

Can it power a 304XZ laser power cannon?!

[jeffokada81]

You must work for the Zen Magnets people?

[miner9ner]

awesome



[ogatobranco]

I'm more impressed with the amount of magnetic spheres you have.... Can I has that hexagonal prism tower? ... nice vid :]

[fusionboy69]

DUDE!!! you're amazing!! That's hardcore..

[padlockd]

I thought going from 25 magnets to 216 was a lot. You have a few more. =0

Super cool, bro.

[Themystwind]

i have solved how it works......it works because of......(black hole rips opens and sucks the earth in and tears it to shreds

[Kiliankoe]

Magnets. How do they work?

[HYPRKLSTRKMPLX]

@Kiliankoe

Magic. But not like a 5 year old birthday party magician magic, more like a dark, midieval sorceror kind of magic, complete with broths and wands and toadstools and shit.

[jaryl62]

@HYPRKLSTRKMPLX hey, what brand of magnets should I buy? You seem like a pro.

[Tyroniix]

It Looks Like The Amount Of Energy To Move One Gear Is The Same Amount Of Energy To Move Many Of Them... Does That Sound About Right??

[HYPRKLSTRKMPLX]

@Tyroniix

The amount of energy to move any additional gear is increased, but only because there is still friction due to the ball bearings and armatures supporting each gear. As far as I can tell, there is a limit to the amount of gears that can be integrated, because the force needed to turn the initial gear becomes greater than the forces applied between each successive gear. If one can create a frictionless bearing, than what you stated could be possible.

[LudicrousTachyon]

@HYPRKLSTRKMPLX Because they are so tiny it may feel like you are only applying force to the first gear but in actuality you are applying force to them all. Instead of being in physical contact with teeth their magnetic fields act like the teeth. If they were much more massive you would notice that you have to overcome a secondary gear's stationary momentum as well as it's friction and you would feel that resistance as you try to turn the first gear.

[HYPRKLSTRKMPLX]

@LudicrousTachyon

Fair enough, could'nt have said it better myself. ;)

[trwMagnets]

Insanely awesome idea, and you have an enormous amount of magnets I must say.

[koozdra]

These are amazing.

[FoolyCoolyMabase]

I can't think of any practical application for the magnet sphere, but shit, it looks awesome

[Zencyde]

Haha, while I'm rambling and ripped off my ass, a fun little thing to do with them is roll them at eachother with about 1-2 degrees off the normal. If you do it right, most of that linear velocity gets transfered to rotational and it will spin in place for quite some time. Often lifting itself such that one ball is touching the surface at all times. I should get some video recordings of it. I need better lenses. :( I should steal some from work....

[Zencyde]

Okay, okay. I have to admit. That is a fucking CLEVER use of these things. I didn't realize it before, but now that I do think about it the magnetic fields do create a sort of gear-tooth effect because of all the nodes. It's really weird when you quantize magnets on a macroscopic level.

My guess for the 2 hands on the sphere is too much friction to transfer the forces, right? Would make a very effective system for energy transfer with a limit. Or a vibrational motor. Love the application. ;)

[okuma0kuma]

magnetic cogs nice idea would make efficient mechanism in low gravity environment

[ZoomBoomBang1]

I think he likes magnets 1/3 of his life savings where spent;)

[saxplayingcompnerd]

Very nice gear system you have there. What do you use for the support structure(block, posts, bearings)?

[ReformedDubstep]

Very clever, I love the last one. Quick, put a patent on it.

[KaiqueSumatso]

Very nice!

omg, how much balls u got??

how much did u pay for it? o.Õ

or, I got a theory, u work for them :]

[tend2it]

WOW ... S-U-P-E-R---C-O-O-L---!!!!

was playing with hexagons with center balls a while back and lined them up in a row to see how much influence the field would do but they would always eventually get attracted to each other ... stationary spaced rotating axis is brilliant! Great job! ... Man ... how many sets of magnets do you own? ... looks like a epic number. Btw, when are you going to join us over flickr-dot-com/groups/zengalle­ry/ and flickr-dot-com/groups/magnetsp­heres?

[meevybaby]

THAT'S AWESOME!

I have thought of making some gear thing before but never made it work this good! that is awesome! nice contraptions!

curious...how many k magnets u have?
