Method for converting thermal energy into mechanical energy, comprising at least one bimetallic strip

摘要

In a device for converting thermal energy into mechanical energy and comprising at least one bimetallic strip, it is provided that the bimetallic strip (2) comprises a section (3) which is mounted in a firmly clamped fashion and a movable section (6) and is exposed to the heat to be converted. The free section (6) is excited to oscillate. <IMAGE>
