An energy harvesting system comprising:
a housing with a mounting interface arranged to secure the housing in line with a suspended load,
a hub integrated with the mounting interface and secured to the housing by a bearing interface that facilitates rotation of the hub relative to the housing,
a tether connected to the hub that connects the hub and mounting interface in line with a suspended load,
an energy collector connected between the hub and a base, the energy collector enabling relative movement between the hub and the base, thereby enabling torque to be applied to the hub; and
an electrical generator mounted to the housing, the electrical generator having a rotor that is coupled to the hub. |
