Abstract

A magnetic force generating device is provided for application to a first object that is movable relative to a second object providing a first magnetic force, and includes a coil disposed on the first object, a sensing module disposed on the first object adjacent to the coil for sensing a distance between the first and second objects, and a processor. When the sensed distance is shorter than a threshold value, the processor enables provision to the coil of a driving current having a magnitude negatively correlated to the sensed distance, so that the coil generates a second magnetic force, which is repulsive to the first magnetic force, in response to the driving current.
