Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perform utilization as a stable voltage and high-current electricity by accumulating static electricity being generated by a static electricity generating device in an electrical double-layer capacitor and discharging the capacitor with a control device. SOLUTION: When a windmill 1 is rotated, it is accelerated by pulleys 4a and 4b for composing a speed-increasing mechanism via a belt 3 and rotates a movable disk 5 via a shaft 6, and a contact brush 7 being planted on the movable disk 5 is rubbed against a fixed disk 8. Since the movable disk 5 is formed by a substance with a small work function and the fixed disk 8 is formed by a substance with a large work function at this time, the movable disk 5 is electrified positively by the friction between the movable disk 5 and the fixed disk 8, the fixed disk 8 is electrified negatively, and positive and negative electric charges are accumulated at each electrical double-layer capacitor 10 via each power collection electrode. The accumulated electricity can be discharged and utilized as electricity with long current density from the electrical double-layer capacitor 10.
