A parallel magnetic circuit motor includes a rotor without magnets and a stator with magnets. The stator has stator poles with windings. The windings are energized on a first plurality of stator poles with current in a same first direction and the windings are energized on a second plurality of stator poles with current in a same second direction opposite the same first direction.

An electric generator comprising a rotor housing; a rotor mounted in the rotor housing, with two opposed main faces; permanent magnets circumferentially arranged in front of one of the main faces of the rotor; coils circumferentially arranged in front of the other one of the main faces of the rotor; the rotor being configured for, upon rotation, vary a magnetic flux through the coils produced by the permanent magnets, so as to generate electromotive forces in said coils; wherein the coils are arranged outside of the rotor housing. Also a valve for gas cylinder, equipped with a corresponding electric generator.

An electromagnetic generator comprises one or more flux assembly having at least one coil and at least one magnetic field source separated by a gap. An interference drum has a sidewall at least partially positioned inside the gap and comprising at least one magnetic field permeable zone and at least one magnetic field impermeable zone. The interference drum is movable relative to the at least one coil and to the at least one magnetic field source to alternatively position the at least one magnetic field permeable zone and the at least one magnetic field impermeable zone of the sidewall inside the gap. When the interference drum is moved, magnetic flux is created in the coil, and induces electrical current to flow into the coil. The coil may be connected to an external circuit, such that the electrical current may flow through the external circuit.
