Abstract:
The invention relates to an autonomous device ( 10 ) for storing and releasing energy in order to power a piece of electrical equipment ( 12 ), in particular a piece of electrical equipment ( 12 ) of an aircraft, characterised in that said device comprises: —a first means ( 16 ), configured to transform a variation in the surrounding pressure (P) to which the device ( 10 ) is subject into mechanical energy, —at least one second means ( 20, 22 ), configured to mechanically store said mechanical energy by transforming same into the form of mechanical potential energy, —a third means ( 24 ), configured to control the release of the mechanical potential energy contained in said second means ( 20, 22 ) and transform same into restored mechanical energy, —a fourth means ( 28 ), configured to transform the restored mechanical energy into electrical energy suitable for powering said piece of electrical equipment ( 12 ).

Claim (Index 9):
Method for powering electrical equipment depending on the ambient pressure (P) applied to said equipment, said equipment comprising a self-contained device for storing and releasing energy according to  claim 1 , wherein said method comprises:\n a first step (STEP 1 ) during which a variation in the ambient pressure (P) applied to the device ( 10 ) is transformed into mechanical energy (E 1 ) that is simultaneously stored in the form of potential energy (EP) in the at least one resilient element of the second means, a second step (STEP 2 ) that follows the first step (STEP 1 ) and during which the potential energy (EP) is conserved in the at least one resilient element of the second means as long as the ambient pressure (P) does not exceed a specified pressure threshold (Ps), a third step (STEP 3 ) during which, as soon as the ambient pressure (P) exceeds said specified pressure threshold (P s ), the third means releases the second means such that said second means releases the potential energy (EP) which is simultaneously converted into restored mechanical energy (E 2 ) and then into electrical energy (EL) by the fourth means, and during which step the electrical equipment is powered using the electrical energy (EL).
