Obtaining of a secure reciprocation of piston magnets and enhance the continuity to obtain a continuous rotary power. The rotary power generating apparatus has the first, second piston magnet members the first, second connecting rods the crankshaft the first, second guide members and the first, second fixed magnet members and it has the demagnetizing member including the demagnetizing rotating board. The first, second piston magnet members and the first, second fixed magnet members are arranged so that the top pole surfaces and fixed pole surfaces having the same polarity, opposes each other. The demagnetizing rotating board has demagnetizing magnet parts, having magnetic forces weaker than the magnetic poles of the top pole surfaces a and different from the polarity of the top pole surfaces and the non-magnetic force parts.

Embodiments described herein may take the form of an electromagnetic actuator that produces a haptic output during operation. Generally, an electromagnetic coil is wrapped around a central magnet array. A shaft passes through the central magnet array, such that the central array may move along the shaft when the proper force is applied. When a current passes through the electromagnetic coil, the coil generates a magnetic field. The coil is stationary with respect to a housing of the actuator, while the central magnet array may move along the shaft within the housing. Thus, excitation of the coil exerts a force on the central magnet array, which moves in response to that force. The direction of the current through the coil determines the direction of the magnetic field and thus the motion of the central magnet array.

A system for harvesting energy from mechanical motion and/or vibrations is disclosed. The system incorporates a nonlinear double pendulum mechanism. The nonlinear mechanism can be mounted on a frame that is fixed to a moving or vibrating object. A transducer can be coupled to the frame and/or the nonlinear mechanism in order to convert the relative motion of the frame and the nonlinear mechanism into electrical energy or stored mechanical energy. The recovered energy can be used to provide primary or supplementary power to certain electronic and mechanical devices.

A holder is used while attached to a chassis of a vibration generator that moves a vibrator to generate a vibration. The holder includes a vibrator retention unit retaining the vibrator, a fixed unit fixed to the chassis, and an arm. The arm connects the fixed unit and the vibrator retention unit, and the arm supports the vibrator retention unit while the vibrator retention unit can be displaced with respect to the fixed unit. The fixed unit, the arm, and the vibrator retention unit are integrally formed using resin.

A vibration generator including a coil, a plunger including a first shaft and a second shaft, and a frame. The first shaft is received in the coil such as to be movable in a first direction. The second shaft extends in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, is disposed on the other side in the first direction relative to the coil with a gap therebetween. The first and second shafts are partly made of a magnetic material so as to be magnetically attractable to the coil and thereby movable to one side in the first direction. The frame is fixed to the first and second shafts at positions on the one and other sides, respectively, in the first direction relative to the coil, and elastically deformable at least partly as a result of movement of the first and second shafts.
