Title:
REACTION CONTROL DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002095516
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
As rotational mechanical devices accelerate or decelerate, they generate torque against their housing and/or their surroundings. This torque represents wasted energy that is lost to the system. The invention comprises the use of equal and opposite force from an energy source such as a spring or counterwieght to counteract to the torque generating forces in the mechanical device.
