PRINCIPLE
This Works On Up And Down Movement Of Shock Absorber.
WORKING
Whenever the vehicle experiences a jerk, the suspension moves down. The free
rod also moves down along with the suspension, which in turn results in the
downward rolling motion of the shaft over the rubber strip.
As the shaft rotates, the coil inside the dynamo also rotates which results in the
generation of induced electricity.
The electricity that is generated, passes to the bridge rectifier via the
connecting wires from the dynamo.
The bridge rectifier converts the Alternating Current to the Direct Current.
This current can be used for lightening of bulbs or it can also be stored in a
capacitor.
Road Tests
Vehicle used:
Chevrolet
Suburban SUV
(2002 model).
Test speed:
32kmph & 48
kmph
Result
@ 32
km/hr
@ 48
km/hr
ADVANTAGES
Since the weight of the system is very less, it does hampers
with the momentum of the vehicle. Therefore, more power is
produced from a comparatively lesser energy.
More researchers are going on to extend the tests involving other types
of vehicles such as trucks, buses and other automotive vehicles
