A power generating system using magnetic induction and a method of operating same are disclosed. The power generating system includes at least one stationary electromagnet receiving an excitation voltage from a power supply. The at least one stationary electromagnet has a north pole, a south pole and a magnetic field. The system also includes at least one stationary coil positioned inside the magnetic field and intersected by magnetic field lines of the at least one electromagnet such that when the at least one electromagnet is excited, an electromotive force (EMF) is induced in the at least one stationary coil. The power supplied may be AC or DC. The system also includes a frequency modulator for changing the rate of electric current introduced to the at least one electromagnet so that the change of current rate will cause an EMF to be induced in the coil.

A servo valve is provided with a first elastic portion, a second elastic portion, and a connecting portion. The first elastic portion extends in an X direction inside a valve body and has a first elastic force exerted on a movable element toward an X2 direction. The second elastic portion extends in the X direction inside the valve body and has a second elastic force exerted on the movable element toward an X1 direction. The connecting portion is connected to the first elastic portion and the second elastic portion inside the valve body, and is in abutment against a step portion of the valve body and a spool of the movable element at a neutral position of the movable element.

An electromagnetic valve, having a valve closing element which is arranged in a valve housing and which is capable of opening or closing a valve passage in a valve seat, having a magnet armature provided for actuating the valve closing element, and having a substantially cylindrical restoring spring which is braced between the magnet armature and a magnet core. In a parallel arrangement with respect to the restoring spring, a spring ring is arranged between the magnet armature and the magnet core, which spring ring has a smaller number of spring windings in relation to the number of spring windings of the restoring spring.

In some examples, a static part includes a static body and a first cylindrical extension extending from the static body, the first cylindrical extension including an open end with a cylindrical inner surface having a first diameter. A moveable part is moveable toward the static part by the magnetic flux of a solenoid. The moveable part may include a moveable body and a second cylindrical extension extending from the moveable body, the second cylindrical extension including a cylindrical outer surface having a second diameter, smaller than the first diameter, to enable the cylindrical outer surface to move within the open end. The second diameter is sized for the cylindrical outer surface to pass adjacent to the cylindrical inner surface to enable passage of a portion of the magnetic flux radially to reduce an energy of impact between the moveable part and the static part.
