Abstract

The charger has two strings (3) attached to ankle or wrist which enter a box (1) through holes (2). The strings rotate pulley drums (4) mounted on hollow shafts (5) against return springs (7) and turn an inner coaxial shaft (6) through ratchets (8). The inner shaft drives a generator (18) through toothed wheels (13,14) and a flywheel (17). The electrical output is controlled by a regulator (20) An Independent claim is also included for : Utilization of the charger for mobile telephones, digital cameras and other electronic equipment using low capacity batteries
