introduction 3

 In the present day scenario power has become the major need
for human life.

 Energy is an important input in all the sectors of any countries

economy.

 The day-to-day increasing population and decreasing

conventional sources for power generation, provides a need to
think on non-conventional energy resources.

 Here in this project we are looking forward to conserve the

kinetic energy that gone wasted, while vehicles move.

 The number of vehicles passing over speed breaker on road is
increasing day by day.

 Beneath speed breaker, setting up an electro-mechanical unit

known piston/water tank assembly could help us conserving
this energy and use it for power generation.

 This generated power can be stored, by using different

electrical devices.

 We can supply this energy to street lights, traffic lights, and

nearby areas, and thus helps in country’s economy.
Objective 5

 In our country there is too much short fall of

electricity and we try to overcome this problem by
non conventional source of electricity

 To tap the potentially useful potential energy from

vehicles plying on the road.

 The objective of this project is to produce

electricity by very low price.

DIFFERENT MECHANISMS
 SPRING COIL MECHANISM

 RACK- PINION MECHANISM

 CRANK-SHAFT MECHANISM

CRANK-SHAFT MECHANISM 10

Why we use spring coil and
12
rack pinion mechanism?
Roller mechanism
 Maintenance will be very difficult.
 Might cause collision.

Crank shaft mechanism

 Crank-shafts are required to be mounted on bearings which creates
balancing problem.
 Mechanical vibrations produces which in turn damage the bearings.

 Because of above disadvantages We use ONLY SPRING COIL

MECHANISM & RACK- PINION MECHANISM.
 AMONG THIS WE USE SPRING COIL MECHANISM.
 Spring coil mechanism 13

Working process
 Vehicle approaching the speed breaker

 Maximum load on the speed breaker is when the vehicle is

on the middle of the speed breaker.
Continued.. 14

 Due to this force is applied on the piston/spring mechanism in

the water tank.
 And then water is coming outside of the tank.
 Now one valve is there which measured the pressure & Valve
is maintaining of flow of water.
Continued.. 15

 This water is passing on rotor blade which rotates & one chain
belt is there so Generator is also rotates with rotor.

 This generator generates electricity which can be used for

lighting of the lamps on the road or it may be stored in the
battery and can be converted in AC current using inverter and
used for lighting of the lamps, signals sign boards on the road.

 Piston/spring arrangement
 Water tank
 Turbine
 DC generator
 Battery/inverter
SPRING SELECTION... 19

 The function of spring is to bear a load and twist by application of

force from the speed breaker. The spring should be such that it can
generate enough force to pressurize the water in tank by piston.
 Based on the strength, functional requirements and the properties of
the candidate materials as earlier stated, Stainless steel was selected
as the most suitable material for its excellent ability to withstand
high stress, good fatigue resistance and long endurance for shock
and impact loads.
 The spring used is in helical shape.
 The spring stiffness and spring deflection for the chosen spring are
17500 N/m and 0.1M.
Turbine 20

 A small pelton wheel turbine is used .

 A pelton turbine consists of a set of buckets or cups
mounted on a hub.
 A pelton turbine operates in air with the wheel driven
by jets of high pressure water hitting the buckets or cups.
Generator 21

 An electrical Generator is a machine which converts mechanical

energy into electrical energy (or power).

 For this model a permanent magnet DC generator with drum

type armature, wave winding is suitable which is shown in fig

 Specification: voltage 12volt, 1200 rpm ,DC generator

MERITS… 23

 Low Budget electricity production

 Less floor area

 No obstruction to traffic

 Suitable at parking of multiplexes, malls, toll booths,

signals, etc.
SCOPE AND APPLICATION 24

 This mechanism is very economical and easy to install.

 Two protocols of this type of speed breakers are developed in

India not practically implemented till date.

 Practically implemented in New Jersey, China and Indonesia.

 Lots of researches and investigations are going on to practically

utilize this technique.
Conclusion 25

 The existing source of energy such as coal, oil etc may not
be adequate to meet the ever increasing energy demands.
These conventional sources of energy are also depleting and
may be exhausted.

 These are some non-conventional methods of producing

energy. This project is a one step to path of exploring the
possibilities of energy from several non-conventional energy
sources.
