PURPOSE:To generate electric power by use of the weight of automobiles, by interconnecting a generator with a turning shaft that is turned with downward movement of a step board installed on a road by means of an interlocking mechanism. CONSTITUTION:Lateral holes 2 are formed in a road surface 1, and a turning shaft 4 and a generator 6 in each hole 2 are coupled together by means of an interlocking mechanism 7. Each time an automobile rides on a step board 11, its front end is moved downward and the turning shaft 4 is turned by the function of levers 12, 12', 9, 9' and a ratchet wheel 8. Here, arrangement is such that the turning shaft 4 in each hole 2 is interconnected with its generator 6 by means of an interlocking mechanism 7 and the two turning shafts 4 are interconnected with each other by means of a connecting shaft 15. Therefore, if the wheels of an automobile depress either of the step boards 11, the two turning shafts 4 are turned together for generation of electric power. Thus, since electric power can be generated by use of the weight of an automobile, it is enabled to supplement electric energy. |
