Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of piezoelectric power generation, and in particular relates to a multi-dimensional vibration energy harvester for supplying power to a ship positioning and tracking system. Background technique [0002] The ship positioning and tracking system has been widely used on civil ships, providing a strong guarantee for the ship's navigation safety, timely rescue, and search and rescue after losing contact. However, the existing positioning and tracking systems are all based on engine power supply. Once an accident occurs on the ship and the engine and the entire power system fail, the positioning and tracking system will lose its proper function. In addition, the existing positioning and tracking systems are all external, and cannot work normally when the ship is wrecked and flooded, and the positioning system is easily shut down or destroyed after the ship is hijacked by criminals. In recent years, in order to e...

Problems solved by technology

However, most of the piezoelectric generators currently proposed for ship positioning and tracking systems are directly excited by the additional mass inertial force on the piezoelectric vibrator, so they can only collect energy in a fixed vibration direction and the resonant frequency is poorly adjustable; the most critical is The piezoelectric vibrator is subjected to two-way excitation and two-way bending deformation during operation. When the ship vibrates or shakes in the wind and waves with a large amplitude, the brittle piezoelectric material is easily broken due to excessive tensile stress.
