Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant de collecter de l'énergie provenant d'un impact par l'utilisation d'un système de collecte MEMS piézoélectrique comprenant au moins un engrenage (1) entraîné par un système à masse d'inertie et un transducteur piézoélectrique (2) situé sur l'engrenage dans le but de garder le système aussi compact que possible. Le transducteur piézoélectrique, tel qu'une structure en porte-à-faux, est accouplé au système à masse d'inertie au moyen d'une pointe (3) sur l'extrémité libre de l'élément en porte-à-faux de sorte que, lorsque l'engrenage tourne, l'élément en porte-à-faux piézoélectrique est animé par l'impact entre les dents de l'engrenage (4) et la pointe de l'élément en porte-à-faux. D'autre part, l'élément en porte-à-faux piézoélectrique peut être animé avec le blocage et le dégagement de la pointe à l'aide de l'engrenage. Dans ce cas, la forme de la pointe et de l'engrenage n'a pas besoin d'être optimisée. En outre, le revêtement sans frottement de la pointe avec SiC ou du diamant doit être pris en compte dans le but d'améliorer l'efficacité des systèmes.
