Low profile push-pull magnetic vibrating apparatus
First Claim
1. An ultra low profile vibrating transducer, suitable for a floor mat and or vibrating pad, comprising:
- an “
I”
core coil electromagnet, supported by elastomers to allow vibration up or down or rotate respect to the center of laminate;
a plurality of permanent magnets, which may be permanent magnets or electromagnets, placed adjacent to each end of the “
I”
core electromagnets, with a small air gap, wherein the magnets have opposite poles at the upper and lower faces, the magnets are supported by flexible elastomer which can act as supporting and pivoting point of magnets to allow rotational vibration respect to the supporting and pivoting structure of the magnet; and
a supporting structure to maintain lateral spacing position of magnetic laminate and magnets.

Abstract
An ultra-low profile vibrating transducer, particularly suited for floor mat and ultra thin vibrating pad and multimedia tactical feedback applications, using an “I” core coil in the center and permanent magnets positioned at both ends of the “I” core to create balanced push-pull vibrating actions. Mounting methods to effectively transfer energy to the users while withstanding user'"'"'s body weight. “I” core coil may be driven by AC power, pulsed and/or DC power or audio power. Elastomeric supports are configured to provide rotational leverage action to further enhance the vibrating effectiveness.
