An electromagnetic propulsion system is provided. The system comprises first and second pluralities of stator coils wound about first and second axes, a plurality of support structures, first and second couplers that surround portions of the first and second pluralities of stator coils, and first and second pluralities of sets of rotor coils wound about axes that are parallel to the first and second axes. The stator coils are configured to receive electric current through an outside controller selecting appropriately coupled stator sections or through a sliding electrical contact system or bearing system to induce at least a first magnetic field. The plurality of support structures supports the first and second plurality of stator coils. The first and second couplers include notches and are oriented so that their notches pass over the plurality of support structures when the couplers move along the stator coils. The couplers may have an adjustable segment to close the notch. The sets of rotor coils are equidistantly attached to the couplers and are configured to receive electric current to induce magnetic fields that interact with the magnetic fields of the stator coils so that magnetic forces are applied to the plurality of rotor coils, thereby propelling the couplers along the stator coils.

An electromagnetic launcher with a curved or spiral-shaped, open-ended guideway and conductors for launching a projectile. The projectile, movably retained on or within the guideway, is accelerated along the guideway using electromagnetic forces until it reaches an end of the guideway, then the projectile is launched in a desired direction. The direction of the launch of the projectile is determined by orienting the guideway in the desired direction using an actuator.

An EM driver for accelerating an object may be configured as an EM rifle for accelerating, rotating to spin-stabilize, and releasing a projectile. A core includes a stator coil, forward and reverse coils, a railed shaft, and a transfer shaft. The stator coil generates a first EM field, and the forward and reverse coils generate second and third EM fields which interact with the first EM field to accelerate the armature in forward and reverse directions, respectively. The railed shaft is elongated along a central axis through the armature and includes multiple rails arranged helically around a central shaft. The armature remains in contact with the rails during acceleration so as to impart a turning motion. The transfer shaft is physically coupled with and projects forwardly from the armature and transfers to the projectile the acceleration and the turning motion of the armature in the forward direction.

A liner motor based on radical magnetic tubes includes: a dynamicer (mover, QDZ) and a stator (STA), the structure of the stator (STA) is: a stator magnetic tube (SCG) is nested into the inner wall of a pure iron tube (DTG), the stator magnetic tube (SCG) provides a radial magnetic field, a stator tube (DZGD) is formed within the stator magnetic tube (SCG), the dynamicer can travel in the stator tube; the dynamicer iron core is a tube of a radial magnetic field and installed on a tubular coil skeleton, on which winding the dynamicer coil to form the dynamicer main body; the sliders (HDZ) are installed on both ends of the dynamicer main body load.

A series of the relay of the electromagnetic launcher with a gun and a floating launch platform to launch projectiles in space, wherein the projectile is accelerated along a path using electromagnetic force until the projectile reaches a desired direction and position. The direction of the path is determined by orienting the path in the desired direction using a catcher. the catcher and rail gun projectile as high above as possible, coming close to near space. When the said projectile will reach the last platform, it will be launched by the railgun and ignite its rocket engine to take the payload in space or as required to eliminate the need for large rocket boosters to launch the projectile.

A space launch system and method through electromagnetic pushing. The space launch system comprises an energy storage subsystem, an energy conversion subsystem, a linear motor subsystem, and a control maintenance subsystem. The space launch system converts the electric energy into an electromagnetic force. Through the electromagnetic force, a rocket is pushed to be accelerated to a certain speed along an electromagnetic launching track to realize the launching of the rocket.
