Do you know of any that would be interested in a meeting? They would be under no obligation but would be required to sign a non disclosure agreement.
It would be easier to name the ones that I haven't tried to contact, but without any reply you never know if they actually looked at the idea or just tossed it in the recycle bin.
In the last 5 years I have been to one Virginia US senator and had him contact the DOE.
My 1st district Congressman US house of representatives.
Tried to contact Charles Gray head of the EPA hydraulic hybrids group.
Every US manufacturer through owners of local dealers., who know me and think the idea has true merit.
Many Japanese manufacturers.
When your efforts bring no response whatsoever, you never know if you really "contacted" them in the first place.
If you know someone who is interested I would welcome any assistance in arranging a meeting.
Efforts to promote were always dependent on an issued patent that was actually real intellectual property worth considering.
Since it seems like after 5 years of efforts that may actually happen, then the next threshold is to produce a working example that demonstrates efficiency.
The cost of a functional prototype is very high. I have one built without the adjustable journal feature.
