Gramme dynamo. 19th-century illustration of a dynamo design produced by Belgian engineer Zenobe Gramme (1826-1901). Gramme's first dynamo was designed in 1871. Dynamos are devices used to convert rotary motion into electrical power. This is achieved by rotating magnets around wires, and generates direct electrical currents. This illustration is from 'Physique Populaire' (Emile Desbeaux, 1891).

This particular device has horizontal electro-magnets. It was used for producing power rather than for lighting. It is based on a Gramme machine (Gramme ring, Gramme magneto, or Gramme dynamo), an electrical generator that produces direct current, named after its Belgian inventor, Zénobe Théophile Gramme (1826 –1901). It was built as either a dynamo or a magneto. It was the first generator to produce enough power for industrial use.
