PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a power generation element which can be miniaturized while ensuring power generation efficiency.SOLUTION: In a power generation element 601, permanent magnets are sandwiched respectively between a first rod 11 and a second rod 612, and an intermediate rod 613, the intermediate rod 613 serves as a member for forming a magnetic loop containing the first rod 11 and a magnetic loop containing the second rod 612. Consequently, miniaturization can be achieved while maintaining an equal power generation efficiency compared with a case of power generation by using two power generation elements comprising the first rod 11 and the intermediate rod 613. This means that by sharing the intermediate rod 613, decrease in component cost and improvement of usage efficiency in space for installing power generation elements are achieved. |
