Another interesting quote from the patent:
"In another example of the physical effects of an embodiment such as that
depicted in fig 1, a Vandegraff generator wih a spark potential of
approximately three quarters of an inch from its bell can be placed between
an assembly of north opposing magnets and an assembly of south opposing
magnets, the north opposing magnets located eight inchs from the bell, and
the south opposing magnets located five feet from the bell, with the bell
located one foot from its base. This configuation will produce a large
spark from the Vandegraff to the south opposing magnets, indicating the
potential of the present invention to perrfom electron transfer at a
distance."
Now this is hard to understand conventionally, since the discharge is in a
straight line and presumably the flux line is along the same straight line.
But if the flux is HELICAL as shown in fig 1, then a changing helical flux
would cause acceleration of charge in a straight line though the center of
that flux.
