Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] The present invention relates to a new device for obtaining energy, preferably electrical energy, from the vibrations generated by a system, machine, mechanism or tool.

[0003] While in this specification the invention will be described in relation to a well bore drilling tool, it should be clear that the invention is not restricted to this field of application. Thus, the word tool intend to mean any tool, machine, mechanism and device that vibrates in operation or having at least a part thereof capable of generating vibrations during operation. Vibrations should be understood as pressure variations either in solid, hydraulic and / or gaseous means.

[0004] The inventive device is preferably for use in tools for drilling well bores either wells producing gas, water, petroleum, etc. and the energy generated by the device is available to be directed or undirected fed to electrical, electronic and / or electromechanical equi...
