: : when a roller with a eccentic weight falls against the rim, you can gain

: : energy.

: From your comments I assume that energy is gained from hitting the rim. This has to occur at the right time to GAIN energy or it is a loss of energy. Is this your thinking on this?

Hi Dave,
exactly, when an eccentic weight falls against the rim, the big wheel is the resistant(is acting as a trouble force)
against the falling weight. With this breaking force, the eccentric weight is turned outside, up. The inballance of the big wheel
is 'Created' during falling against the rim!!

For this function we need: first: the free fall,
second: the trouble force to catch the falling eccenter weight.
this is managed by the big wheel

third: release the energy, saved in the roller
carrying an eccenterweight

fourth: go to first again

When I talk from an eccenter weight I am thinking always on a roller who carries an
eccenterweight.

Best regards

Georg
