Abstract

This novel power generation device is detachably mounted on the outside of a shoe, comprising a longitudinal clamping arm assembly and a transverse clamping plate, providing bidirectional clamping and fixation. The power generation module, integrated with the clamping module, has an elastic portion protruding into the projection area of ​​the shoe sole. Upon contact with the ground during walking, it contracts and rebounds, driving a micro-generator to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, which is then stored in a primary portable power source. This device further includes a rental management system for managing the power generation device and the primary portable power source. The primary portable power source stores the generated electrical energy, and a power generation recording module records the amount of electricity generated and the device identification code. The cabinet features storage compartments and charging compartments. The control module reads the electricity generation and identification code, transmits it to the server, updates the user's account reward value, and provides rental fee discounts or points rewards, realizing commercial rewards for human-powered power generation contributions.
