MUMBAI, India, June 30 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202423101227 A) filed by Sunil Kumar Niraj on December 20, 2024, for "electrostatic Propulsion System Utilizing Opposite Charges For Ground-Based Motion Applications".
Inventor includes Sunil Kumar Niraj.
The application for the patent was published on June 26, 2026, under issue no. 26/2026.
Abstract: Abstract: This invention presents a working prototype for an electrostatic propulsion system that utilizes the attraction between oppositely charged elements to generate motion. The system consists of a rotating cylindrical roll with asymmetrically attached conductive sheets, a stationary conductive sheet, a Van de Graaff generator for producing high-voltage opposite charges, and a slip ring assembly for uninterrupted charge transfer. Mounted on a wheeled platform the system converts rotational motion into linear propulsion, demonstrating its feasibility for ground-based transportation. The invention is characterized by its environmental sustainability, energy efficiency, and potential to replace conventional propulsion systems in ground vehicles.
