Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are directed to a pedal for a bicycle that includes a body, a spindle rotatably secured to the body and for connection with the bicycle, a first magnetic platter non-rotatably secured within the body, and a second magnetic platter rotatably secured within the body and overlaying the first magnetic platter. The first and second magnetic platters each include two magnetic blocks that are separated and magnetically charged by a respective permanent magnet plate positioned therebetween. The second magnetic platter includes a keyed protrusion configured to be engaged by a ferrous metal cleat, which can rotate the second magnetic platter between a first position where the pedal is in a magnetically inactive state and a second position where the pedal is in a magnetically active state magnetically securing the cleat to the second magnetic platter.

Abstract: A torque delivering apparatus, including: polygonal cross-section stator body having a plurality of exterior side faces of even number extending between opposite axial end faces, the stator including cylindrical bore extending between the opposite axial ends and centred on central axis of the stator body; a rotor assembly having cylindrical cross-section sized for rotation within the cylindrical bore about the central axis with at least one permanent magnet and shaft coupled to the magnet for rotation; and a plurality of solenoid coils, each coil having plurality of windings and routed to have sections extending parallel along opposite ones of the plurality of exterior side faces; wherein each of the plurality of coils is configured to selectively receive current and generate magnetic field in the stator that is applied to the rotor magnet, the rotor being subject to magnetic torque within the cylindrical bore for rotating and aligning the magnetic field of the permanent magnet with the generated magnetic field.
