Abstract
The invention relates to a flywheel magneto generator having a rotor assembly and a stator assembly. The rotor assembly includes a non-ferromagnetic flywheel and a plurality of magnetic poles that are positioned in spaced relationship around the circumference of the flywheel. The stator assembly includes an E-shaped core with a single magnet mounted on the center leg and coils associated with at least the outer legs. The poles and core may be formed of a bonded iron material. The poles may be joined to the flywheel by press fitting or integral molding, among other methods.
