  • Patent number: 9130419
    Abstract: A securing structure for motor magnets includes a casing, a rotor, two magnets, a rear cover and a ring sleeve. The casing has two magnet seats bilaterally disposed on the outer wall, wherein the two magnets are fittingly combined in the two magnet seats and thus providing electrical force to the rotor, while the rotor disposed inside the casing. The rear cover and a brush fixing seat coaxially sleeve on one end of the casing. The ring sleeve mounts around the casing to offer an external restraining force to the magnets.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20110037334
    Abstract: A fastening structure for motor magnets primarily includes: a casing formed with a pair of magnet-positioning means, which are opposite to each other on the casing; a rotor installed in the casing; two magnets providing magnetic force to the rotor and each being installed in the corresponding magnet-positioning means, and a fixing sleeve mounted around the casing for providing an external fixing force to the magnets. Thereby, the disclosed structure helps to eliminate problems related to complicated fabrication required by the prior art.

  • Patent number: 6467596
    Abstract: A one-way ratchet mechanism includes a ratchet wheel injection-molded from plastics and fastened to a hub of a flywheel, the ratchet wheel having a center axle hole, which receives a transmission shaft, a plurality of inside notches equiangularly spaced around the center axle hole, and a plurality of trapezoidal positioning grooves respectively disposed at one end of each inside notch, a plurality of constraint plates respectively fitted into the positioning grooves and defining with the transmission shaft a respective wedge-like constraint space, a plurality of springs respectively mounted in the inside notches at one end, and a plurality of needle rollers respectively supported on the springs and moved between two ends of each wedge-like constraint space defined between the constraint plates and the transmission shaft to control one-way rotation of the ratchet wheel upon rotation of the transmission shaft.

  • Patent number: 6468186
    Abstract: An adjustable magnetic damping device formed of a left cover shell, a plurality of adjustment members, a plurality of magnets, a cam wheel, and a right cover shell, and installed in the flywheel of a stationary bicycle adjacent to a metal lining of the flywheel to impart a damping resistance to the flywheel. The cam wheel is connected to a pull cable of which the tension can be adjusted for enabling the angular position of the cam wheel to be changed, so as to further adjust the radial position of the magnets in changing the strength of the magnetic resistance.
