Magnetic end effector
A magnetic end effector utilizing a switchable Halbach array includes a pair of opposing members that can move towards and away from each other. The switchable Halbach arrays are located on or near the inner surface of the opposing members. A mechanical switching system is used to control the switchable Halbach arrays by moving one or more magnets that make up the switchable Halbach arrays. When manipulated in a certain way, the switchable Halbach arrays cause the opposing members to move towards each other, and when manipulate in a different manner, cause the opposing members to move away from each other.
MAGNETIC LEVITATION VACUUM PUMP
A magnetic bearing vacuum pump comprises: a first displacement signal generation section configured to amplify, by a resolution multiplying factor K of K>1, a displacement modulated wave signal modulated according to a displacement of the rotor from a predetermined position to generate a high-resolution displacement signal in a first displacement region including the predetermined position; a second displacement signal generation section configured to generate a low-resolution displacement signal in a larger second displacement region including the first displacement region; a selection section configured to select either one of the high-resolution displacement signal or the low-resolution displacement signal based on an unsteady-state response signal obtained by excluding a steady-state whirling displacement component from the high-resolution displacement signal or the low-resolution displacement signal; and a bearing control section configured to control the magnetic bearing based on the displacement signal selected by the selection section.

VIBRATION-PROOF MAGLEV POWER GENERATOR
A maglev power generator has a frame, a transmitting shaft, two electricity generating sets, two axial vibration-proof sets, two maglev assemblies, and two radial vibration-proof sets. The transmitting shaft longitudinally extends within the frame. The two electricity generating sets, the two maglev assemblies, and the two radial vibration-proof sets are connected to the transmitting shaft. Each axial vibration-proof set contacts a respective end of the transmitting shaft. The transmitting shaft suspends within the frame and is able to rotate without contact with the frame. The axial vibration-proof sets, the maglev assemblies, and the radial vibration-proof sets provide the transmitting shaft with magnetic forces radially and axially to prevent the rotating transmitting shaft from deviation. Therefore, the transmitting shaft is able to rotate with minimum power loss. The axial vibration-proof sets and the radial vibration-proof sets effectively offer a good vibration-proof function to let the transmitting shaft rotate stably.
