Electrical energy generator used as exercise appliance

摘要

The energy created by a person using an exercise machine is used to generate electricity. The muscular force used on exercise and fitness appliances such as bicycle ergometers, moving walkways, steppers, arm ergometers produces an electrical constant voltage of up to a maximum of 15 Volts. Each piece of equipment incorporates a disc flywheel and variable gear driving a direct voltage permanent magnet generator and a regulating electronic system. The electrical energy generated can drive 12 Volt appliances via an overvoltage protection, or alternatively a battery can be charged via a load regulator with integrated polarity and overvoltage protection.
