Patent ID: 8344529

Claim:
A system comprising a plurality of modules for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy and further comprising: a) Motion Energy Harvesting Device for recapture of mechanical rotational force; b) Electric Generator for alternating current generation from mechanical rotational force whereby the said Motion Energy Harvesting Device is connected to the said Electric Generator by mechanical means; c) Piezoelectric plate generating electrical power for the electro-magnets in the Electric Generator to maximize efficiency at high rates of rotation whereby the said piezoelectric plate is located so as to be activated in advance of vehicular activation of said Mechanical Energy Harvesting Device; d) Controller with rectifiers to convert the output of the one or more Electric Generators and Piezoelectric Plates to direct current for storage; and for supplying current to the electromagnets of one or more Electric Generators; e) Storage Battery to retain the energies generated by one or more Electric Generators and by one or more Piezoelectric Plates; f) Remotely communicating Computer to coordinate and monitor the power generation for maximum efficiency whereby the electrical power generation of one or more modules are measured for deviations from expected values and corrective actions can be taken by the said Controller.
