Methods and apparatus for transcranial stimulation

The present invention provides systems, apparatus and methods for applying electric current to neurons in the brain to treat disorders and to improve motor and / or memory functions in a patient. In a method according to the invention, an electrode is positioned adjacent to and spaced from the skin surface of the patient's head and an electric current is applied through the electrode to a target region in the brain to modulate one or more neurons in the target region. The electrode is housed within an enclosure and spaced from the skin surface so that the electrode does not directly contact the patient's tissue, which reduces the potential for collateral tissue damage or necrosis and shields the electrode from the patient's tissue which substantially inhibits Faradic products (e.g., H+, OH−, H2O2) of the electrode from reaching the target site.

Treadmill roller structure and treadmill

A treadmill roller structure comprises a motor, a gear set and a case. The motor is an out-runner motor. The power output section of the motor rotates about stationary spindle. The rotary power output section is engaged to the gear set, while the gear set is in turn engaged to the case, thus allowing the case to rotate relatively to the spindle of the motor as well. The roller structure does not require a driving belt to transfer power from the motor to the roller, thus reduces the power loss due to frictional force during power transfer through belt driving, which enhances the performance of the motor and offers a space-saving feature. In addition, the instant disclosure also provides a treadmill.

Reciprocating motor and reciprocating compressor having the same

A reciprocating motor and a reciprocating compressor having the same make the manufacture of a stator easier and therefore reduce manufacturing costs by configuring the stator such that an inner stator positioned inside the mover and an outer stator positioned outside the mover are integrally formed, or by making the inner and outer circumferential surfaces of the stator have the same curvature. Also, no gap is generated between the inner stator and the outer stator, and this prevents magnetic leakage, thereby improving the performance of the motor. Also, the use of magnets can be reduced by omitting magnets between stator blocks, and therefore manufacturing costs can be reduced, when compared to the efficiency of the motor.

Magnetically Actuated Reciprocating Motor and Process Using Reverse Magnetic Switching

A magnetically actuated reciprocating motor utilizes the stored energy of permanent magnets and an electromagnetic field to reciprocally drive a magnetic actuator. A converting mechanism converts the reciprocating motion of the magnetic actuator to power a work object. A solenoid, comprising a nonferromagnetic spool having a tubular center section with a coil of wire wrapped around the center section, is connected to a source of power and a switching mechanism. The magnetic actuator has permanent magnets disposed inside each end of an elongated tubular shaft, which is reciprocatively received through the center section of the solenoid. The inward ends of the magnets are disposed in spaced apart relation to form a gap therebetween. The switching mechanism switches the magnetic polarity at the ends of the solenoid so as to alternatively repel and attract the permanent magnets to reciprocate the magnetic actuator. A controlling mechanism controls the switching mechanism.

Brushless, Three Phase Motor Drive

A control method for a brushless, three-phase DC motor. A voltage induced by rotation of a rotor may be sampled at a first expected zero crossing value to produce a first sampled voltage value. An average of a plurality of sampled voltage values, including voltage values sampled at a plurality of prior expected zero crossing values and the first sampled voltage value, may be calculated. The first sampled voltage value may be subtracted from the calculated average to produce a delta zero crossing error. A pulse-width modulation duty cycle may be adjusted based on the delta zero crossing error. The pulse-width modulation duty cycle may be used to control a rotational velocity of the rotor.
