Summary[edit]

Description
English: This machine should operate much as a regular Wimshurst machine (schematic), but with one of the disks split in two along the horizontal diameter, and "unfolded", becoming two disks, one above and other below the unmodified disk. In my implementation, the three resulting disks are mounted side-by-side. The three disks turn in the same direction, and with neutralizers mounted as in the Wimshurst machine (but reversed in my implementation) there are two charge generation areas, at both sides of the central disk, corresponding to the two charge-generation areas at the upper and lower quadrants of the regular machine, where the disks, turning in opposite directions, touch the neutralizers. The machine is also equivalent to the "half" machine with an extra disk added at one side, and with a different assembly of the neutralizers. By Dr. Antônio Carlos M. de Queiroz (in memoriam).
