The preferred embodiments of the present application are shown in the drawings. However, the present application can be realized in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

When an element is referred to as being "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or intervening elements can be present.

[0027] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the present application belongs. The terminology used in the description of the present application herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the present application.

[0031] In the embodiment, the coil carrier plate 12 is internally and uniformly spaced with a plurality of coil windings (not shown).

[0032] The stator assembly 20 comprises a stator 21 slidingly connected to the base 11, roller supports 22 mounted on opposite sides of the stator 21, a plurality of lower rollers 23 uniformly spaced and mounted on the bottom of each roller support 22, a plurality of upper rollers 24 uniformly spaced and mounted on the top of each roller support 22, and a plurality of side rollers 25 respectively mounted on the bottom and top of each roller support 22.
