A piezoelectric power generator that performs conversion between kinetic energy and electrical energy. The piezoelectric power generator is equipped with a beam, a piezoelectric element and a flexible body. The piezoelectric element is bonded to a surface on one side of the beam. The flexible body is arranged on a side of the beam that is opposite to that on which the piezoelectric element is provided. A portion of the beam is connected to the flexible body. The beam is configured such that stress is applied to the beam when the flexible body is deformed into a concave shape with respect to the beam, whereas a stress is not applied to the beam when the flexible body is deformed into a convex shape with respect to the beam. |
