Abstract

PURPOSE:To supply electric power for stroboscopic flash without a battery by providing an accumulator supplying power to a stroboscopic flash circuit and a manual generator charging the accumulator. CONSTITUTION:A connection 18 from the manual generator 30 is connected to the accumulator 21 through a back flow preventing diode 19. When a handle 5 is switched to rotate a rotary plate 6, its torque is transmitted to a rotary magnet plate 12 through an accelerating gear train 11 to rotate said plate 12 at a high speed. A change in a magnetic flux arising from the rotation permits a flat coil 17 to generate electromotive force, which charges the accumulator 21 through the connection 18. As a result, a user operates the manual generator 20 to obtain electric power when necessary, whereby power for stroboscopic flash can be supplied without a battery.
