A system for generating a magnetic field for excitation of a leadless marker assembly. The system of at least one embodiment includes a source generator that generates a plurality of alternating electrical signals each having an independently adjustable phase. A plurality of excitation coils are configured to simultaneously receive a respective one of the alternating electrical signals at a selected phase to generate a magnetic field. The phase of the alternating electrical signal for each excitation coil is independently adjustable relative to the phase of the alternating electrical signal for the other excitation coils so as to adjust the magnetic field from the respective coil. The magnetic fields from the excitation coils combine to form a spatially adjustable excitation field for excitation of the remote leadless marker assembly.

A fixing device includes an excitation coil, a heat-generating layer, a magnetic shunt layer, and a degaussing member. The excitation coil generates a magnetic flux. The heat-generating layer generates heat using the magnetic flux generated by the excitation coil. The magnetic shunt layer transmits heat generated by the heat-generating layer. The degaussing member sandwiches the magnetic shunt layer together with the excitation coil, and selectively performs degaussing by generating a repelling magnetic flux for canceling the magnetic flux generated by the excitation coil so as to activate a self-temperature-control function. The degaussing member selectively refrains from degaussing so as to deactivate the self-temperature-control function.

The present invention relates to a method and to a device for adapting the alternating current generated by a generator (1) and the alternating voltage generated by a generator (1) to a grid (8), whereby the generator (1) has at least one excitation coil (2). The power fed into the grid (8) can be flexibly adapted while entailing low switching losses in that a static frequency converter (9) is employed for the adaptation between the generator (1) and the grid (8), and in that, in order to control the power fed into the grid (8), means (3) are provided with which, on the one hand, the strength of the excitation field generated by the at least one excitation coil (2) is regulated and, on the other hand, the phase angle between the frequency converter voltage and the generator or grid voltage is appropriately controlled.

The present invention provides an object sensor configured such that excitation coils (13c and 13d) and a detection coil (12) are separately disposed, and the detection is performed in accordance with the balance between the excitation coils (13c and 13d) in a pair, a residual variation amount after the impedance due to a DC resistance part and the like has been offset and removed is obtained at high sensitivity with excellent linearity while using a small core body (11), regardless of the impedance including a DC resistance part. Additionally, the object sensor to be used as an inlet sensor is located in an appropriate position on a more upstream side than the read / write position in an insertion direction of the IC card. A contact terminal portion of the IC card is sensed whereby to detect the validity of the card inserted into the apparatus from a card insertion slot. Thereby, steady detection operations can be implemented for the presence or absence of the IC card, notwithstanding environmental temperature variations.The invention further provides an IC card reader configured such that a plurality of inlet sensors for detecting the type of an inserted card is provided in appropriate positions more upstream than the read / write position in a card insertion direction, wherein when an unusable card or the like is inserted, a control operation of closing shutter means can be performed, thereby enabling illegal action with the card to be prevented.

A machine includes a shaft adapted to rotate about a longitudinal axis and formed of a magnetic material and a rotor assembly rotationally engaged with the shaft The rotor assembly includes a pair of rotor disks comprising a magnetic material, each of the rotor disks having a number of magnetic poles, the magnetic poles being spaced apart circumferentially. The rotor disks are coupled to the shaft for rotation about the shaft and generation of a rotating permeance wave.
