The ion-dielectric touch sensor includes a base board, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a dielectric layer. The base board forms an electrode mounting surface on which the first and second electrodes are arranged in such a way that the second electrode is closed to but spaced from the first electrode.

Abstract: 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.

The piezoelectric linear motor includes a dome-shaped piezoelectric ceramic (100) processed such that different electrodes are formed on opposite surfaces of the piezoelectric ceramic. A vibration shaft (200) is fixed to a first surface of the piezoelectric ceramic so that the vibration shaft moves in conjunction with displacement of the piezoelectric ceramic.
