5 BACKGROUND ART
[0002] Increasing demand of energy adds to the need of identifying nonconventional resources of energy. Here will discuss about power generation from
speed breaker and the possible mechanism required for it. An energy crisis is any
great bottleneck in the supply of energy resources to an economy. It usually refers
10 to the shortage of oil and additionally to electricity or other natural resources. An
energy crisis may be referred to as an oil crisis, crisis, energy shortage, electricity
shortage electricity crisis.
[0003] Therefore, we have to investigate other types of renewable sources, which
produce electricity without using any commercial fossil fuels, which is not
15 producing any harmful products. There are already existing such systems using
renewable energy such as solar wind), OTEC (ocean thermal energy conversions)
etc. for power generation. The latest technology is used to generate the power by
such renewable energy.
[0004] Hence the present invention overcomes the prior art problems by
20 providing a power generation unit for power generation using Speed Breaker.
OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION
[0005] The principal object of the present invention is to provide low cost and
more efficient power generation unit for power generation using speed breaker.
[0006] Another object of the present invention is that to convert reciprocating
25 motion of the speed breaker into rotator motion for electricity generation.
[0007] Yet another object of the present invention is that the electricity generated
can further be used for battery charging.
3
[0008] A Yet another object of the present invention is that it is total free energy
and can be stored for further application.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0009] The present invention relates generally to the field of power generation.
5 More specifically, the present invention relates to power generation unit for power
generation using Speed Breaker.
[0010] Power generation unit for power generation using speed breaker
comprises; rack and pinion, spur gear arrangement coupled with the axis of rack
and pinion, springs attached to rack and pinion, generator, battery.
10 [0011] Nowadays, in the present world as the population is increasing the
commercial needs of the people have been increasing. We have different types of
power generation techniques namely wind power generation, hydro power
generation, thermal power generation, tidal power generation, solar power
generation etc. In order to reduce the use of non-renewable resources and save it
15 for future generations we adopted this technique.
[0012] Our focus is generation of electricity from speed-breakers setup. The load
acting on the speed-breaker setup is transmitted to rack and pinion arrangement.
The reciprocating motion of the speed-breaker is converted into rotary motion
using rack and pinion arrangement. The axis of the pinion is coupled with the spur
20 gear. The spur gear is made up of two gears of different sizes. Power is
transmitted from the larger gear to the smaller gear; the speed that is present at the
larger gears multiplied with respect to the smaller gear at the rotation of the
smaller gear. The axis of smaller gear is coupled to a gear arrangement. The gear
wheel with the larger dimension is connected to the axis of the smaller gear in
25 order to increase the generation of the voltage. Hence the speed that has
multiplied at the smaller gear wheel is passed on to this gear wheel of larger
dimension. The smaller gear is coupled to the larger gear and speed breaker in
roads is increasing day by day. There is possibility for generating power by
making the speed breaker as a power generation unit.
4
[0013] When the load acts on the speed breaker the rack comes down and the
springs suspend. Due to this suspension of springs the main gear rotates and then
rotates a sub gear attached to it. The gear of the generator is rotated with
immediate rotation of the sub gear. The reciprocating motion of the speed breaker
5 is converted into rotator motion (mechanical energy). The speed which is
sufficient is fed into the generator. The rotor rotates within a magnetic stator and
produces electromotive force. This generated emf is used for producing electricity
which is used for charging battery and lighting.

embodiments and illustrative drawings, those skilled in the art will recognize that
the invention is not limited to the embodiments of drawing or drawings described
and are not intended to represent the scale of the various components. Further,
some components that may form a part of the invention may not be illustrated in
15 certain figures, for ease of illustration, and such omissions do not limit the
embodiments outlined in any way. It should be understood that the drawings and
the detailed description thereto are not intended to limit the invention to the
particular form disclosed, but on the contrary, the invention is to cover all
modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the scope of the present
20 invention as defined by the appended claim.
[0015] As used throughout this description, the word "may" is used in a
permissive sense (i.e. meaning having the potential to), rather than the mandatory
sense, (i.e. meaning must). Further, the words "a" or "an" mean "at least one” and
the word “plurality” means “one or more” unless otherwise mentioned.
25 Furthermore, the terminology and phraseology used herein are solely used for
descriptive purposes and should not be construed as limiting in scope. Language
such as "including," "comprising," "having," "containing," or "involving," and
variations thereof, is intended to be broad and encompass the subject matter listed

30 intended to exclude other additives, components, integers, or steps. Likewise, the
5
term "comprising" is considered synonymous with the terms "including" or
"containing" for applicable legal purposes. Any discussion of documents, acts,
materials, devices, articles, and the like are included in the specification solely for
the purpose of providing a context for the present invention. It is not suggested or
5 represented that any or all these matters form part of the prior art base or were
common general knowledge in the field relevant to the present invention.

[0018] The present invention provides power generation unit for power
generation using Speed Breaker. Power generation unit comprises; rack and
pinion, spur gear arrangement coupled with the axis of rack and pinion, springs
attached to rack and pinion, generator, battery.

[0019] The load acting on the speed-breaker setup is transmitted to rack and
pinion arrangement. The reciprocating motion of the speed-breaker is converted
into rotary motion using rack and pinion arrangement. The axis of the pinion is
coupled with the spur gear. The spur gear is made up of two gears of different
5 sizes. Power is transmitted from the larger gear to the smaller gear; the speed that
is present at the larger gears multiplied with respect to the smaller gear at the
rotation of the smaller gear. The axis of smaller gear is coupled to a gear
arrangement. The gear wheel with the larger dimension is connected to the axis of
the smaller gear in order to increase the generation of the voltage. Hence the speed
10 that has multiplied at the smaller gear wheel is passed on to this gear wheel of
larger dimension. The smaller gear is coupled to the larger gear and speed breaker
in roads is increasing day by day. There is possibility for generating power by
making the speed breaker as a power generation unit.
[0020] When the load acts on the speed breaker the rack comes down and the
15 springs suspend. Due to this suspension of springs the main gear rotates and then
rotates a sub gear attached to it. The gear of the generator is rotated with
immediate rotation of the sub gear. The reciprocating motion of the speed breaker
is converted into rotator motion (mechanical energy). The speed which is
sufficient is fed into the generator. The rotor rotates within a magnetic stator and
20 produces electromotive force. This generated emf is used for producing electricity
which is used for charging battery and lighting.
