  • Publication number: 20240139581
    Abstract: An electric treadmill includes a treadmill frame, an endless belt, a motor coupled to the endless belt for driving the endless belt to rotate, a brake device and a lifting device. The brake device has a rotating disc coaxially fixed to a motor shaft of the motor and a magnetic brake mechanism. The magnetic brake mechanism has at least one magnetic portion for applying a drag force against rotation of the rotating disc. The lifting device is operable to drive the magnetic brake mechanism to move between a first position where the magnetic portion is located close to the rotating disc and a second position where the magnetic portion is located away from the rotating disc. When there is no electric power supplied to the electric treadmill, the magnetic brake mechanism will automatically move to the first position due to gravity to stop rotation of the endless belt.

The rotating disc is coaxially mounted on a motor shaft of the motor. The magnetic brake mechanism has at least one magnetic portion. The lifting device is configured to drive the magnetic brake mechanism to move between a first position where the magnetic portion is located close to the rotating disc and a second position where the magnetic portion is located away from the rotating disc. The second position is located higher than the first position. When there is no electric power supplied to the exercise apparatus, the magnetic brake mechanism can move downward to the first position to stop rotation of the motor shaft by gravity due to potential difference between the second position and the first position.

  • Patent number: 11525185
    Abstract: Methods and devices are provided wherein rotational gas-flow is generated by vortex generators to decontaminate dirty gas (e.g., gas contaminated by solid particles) in pumping lines of vacuum systems suitable for use at a semiconductor integrated circuit fabrication facility. The vacuum systems use filterless particle decontamination units wherein rotational gas-flow is applied to separate and trap solid particles from gas prior to the gas-flow entering a vacuum pump. Methods are also described whereby solid deposits along portions of pumping lines may be dislodged and removed and portions of pumping lines may be self-cleaning.
