US Patent 7755239 Magnetic repulsion type bearing

A magnetic repulsion type bearing includes a plurality of induction iron pieces, a stator, a rotor, an outer casing, an inner casing and a current controlling device. The rotor is disposed inside the stator, and the iron pieces of the rotor and the iron pieces of the stator are arranged in an alternate manner so that the rotor may be fixedly held in the stator through the magnetic repulsion between them. Also, the outer casing and the inner casing enclose the rotor and the stator so as to shield the electromagnetic force. In addition, the current controlling device may be used to control the amount of current and the direction of the current flow so as to control the strength of the electromagnetic force and the polarity.
