Low Frequency Vibration Electromagnetic Energy Harvester

Abstract

The invention provides a low-frequency vibration electromagnetic energy harvesting device. The device includes an energy collector housing, a cantilever beam elongated plate, a cantilever beam short plate, a collision mass block, a magnetic field generation piece and a multi-turn coil. The environment is vibrated so as to provide vibration excitation to the energy collector housing. The cantilever beam elongated plate and the cantilever beam short plate vibrate along with the vibration excitation. The collision mass block collides with the cantilever beam elongated plate at a preset position of the cantilever beam elongated plate, such that the cantilever beam elongated plate generates vibration at a frequency close to the inherent frequency of the cantilever beam elongated plate. The multi-turn coil and the cantilever beam elongated plate vibrate at the same frequency. When a magnetic induction line is cut, an electrical signal is generated. According to the invention, the electromagnetic energy collector can collect low-frequency vibration electromagnetic energy, and greatly increases low-frequency energy harvest bandwidth of an electromagnetic cantilever beam structure.
