The utility model relates to the technical field of light sources, and discloses a novel hand-cranking
light source which comprises a
light source shell, a
light emitter, a switch, a storage battery and a hand-cranking generator, the
light emitter is installed on the
light source shell, an inner cavity is defined by the
light emitter and the light source shell, the switch and the storage battery are arranged in the inner cavity, the hand-cranking generator is installed on the light source shell, and the switch is arranged on the light source shell. The control end of the switch penetrates through one side wall of the light source shell and extends to the outer side, the switch is used for turning on or turning off the illuminator, the power input end of the storage battery is electrically connected with the
power output end of the hand generator, and the
power output end of the storage battery is electrically connected with the illuminator through the switch. The hand-cranking light source is reasonably designed, the light source shell, the illuminator, the switch, the storage battery and the hand-cranking generator are adopted, the storage battery can be continuously charged through hand-cranking self-generating
electricity, it is ensured that
electricity is provided when the light source is used, and then the purposes that the hand-cranking light source is durable in use, the use effect is improved and the like can be achieved.
