[0001] The present invention relates to a hardware module using driving mechanism for
5 power generation. The invention more particularly relates to a hardware module using
driving mechanism for power generation.
PRIOR ART AND BACKGROUND:
1 o [0002] The following description provides the information that may be useful in
understanding the present invention. The need of the century is renewable energy and
maximization of the use of renewable energy based devices. As, the demand of energy
Is vast, the solutions formed for generation energy such as wind energy, tidal energy,
solar energy etc. but we are unable to satisfy our power needs, because of growing
15 population and usage of power, we have to generate electricity through each and every
possible way. It is essential to study existing methods of foot step power generation that
are rack and pinion arrangement and piezoelectric crystals and supposed to modified the
existing system.
[0003] US9190886B2 One approach to power generation has managed to plan and
20 demonstrated parts of the module of step control stage framework utilizing three
dimensional displaying programming. This procedure comprises number of basic setup
that is introduced under the standing stage. The given framework takes a shot at the
guideline of changing over the straight movement in light of the fact that to weight of steps
into turning movement by rack and pinion mechanism. This instrument drops its level if
25 there is any event of variable burden and prompts changing type issues. Power isn't
created during return development of rack.
[0004] US20020145350A 1 Another approach depends on twist shaft; fly wheel, and
rigging course of action. This kind of steps control framework are qualified to be
introduced in jam-packed spots and country zones. In this manner this is a decent
30 innovation to give practical answer for power related issues to reasonable point. This will
be the most adequate methods for giving capacity to the spots that includes troubles of
transmission. Maintenances and oiling is expected time to time.
[0005] US8123431 82 Further, the drive system which incorporate rack and pinion get
together and chain drive instrument. The change of the weight or power energy in to
35 electrical energy. The power production is high however The underlying expense of this
framework is high. There is no. need of intensity from the main source and these

framework is neighbor friendly. It is exceptionally helpful at the packed spots and on all
streets and just as all sort of step which is utilized to produce the electricity. Maintenance
and grease is expected time to time. Power isn't created during return development of
rack.
5 [0006] It is necessary to locate a sustainable power source by converting mechanical
energy into electrical energy. It doesn't harm the environment, is safe, clear, and costfree.
The people walking on the pathways are following· a continuous development, j(Jst
like in urban areas, as the population gradually grows. The excessive energy produced
by the step system can be stored and utilized to activate the road lights.
1 o [0007] The rack and pinion method is being used directly to turn the flywheel in the first
step. To improve effectiveness, the fasten drive component is used in the second phase.
The rotational energy is converted to electrical energy using a DC generator and gearing.
The LEOs will glow due to this ele.ctrical energy yield.
[0008] In this invention the generation of power is achieved by the driving mechanism
15 attached to the speed breaker. The vertical force applying on the floor is converted into
electrical energy through driving mechanism.

for power generation is to create a system that efficiently converts mechanical energy into
electrical energy.
[0010] Utilizing the kinetic energy from moving vehicles or footsteps to generate
electricity. For example, a roller mechanism can be installed ·on roads to harness the
energy from passing vehicles.
[0011] Providing a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional power generation
·methods, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and lowering carbon emissions.
[0012] Storing the generated electricity in batteries for future use or directly powering
devices like street lights, traffic signals, or other infrastructure.
[0013] Developing a cost-effective solution that requires minimal maintenance and
operational costs, mak!ng it viable for widespread implementation.

electrical energy. Subsequently, as more compressors are added, the shaft turns faster
and quicker. Additionally, the freewheel mechanism, which is fixed to the shaft allows for
continuous spinning to provide more energy. Moreover, a generator is linked to the
