Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of charging equipment, and in particular relates to an impact-driven portable charger. Background Art

[0002] As personal electronic consumer products are increasingly used, portable backup power supplies have become an essential portable component. Currently, portable disposable or rechargeable batteries are generally used as backup power supplies.

[0003] Since the existing method of using batteries as a backup power source cannot be recharged outdoors or in a power outage environment, some portable human-powered power generation devices have appeared on the market as backup power sources. Some of these power generation devices use the power of human limbs such as arms or feet to work on specially designed portable power generation devices and convert mechanical work into electrical energy. This method has the disadvantages of complex energy conversion mechanism, large size and weight, high cost, and affecting people's normal life rhythm, so it is difficult to popularize; some use the piezoelectric effect to convert the pedaling force of the foot into electrical energy or use the thermoelectric effect to generate electrical energy from the heat generated by the human body. The power conversion efficiency and energy intensity of this type of power generation device are very low, and it is difficult to adapt to the increasingly high power requirements of personal electronic consumer products; some portable power generation devices use solar cells as power sources, but these devices still have the disadvantages of large size, high cost, low power density per unit volume, harsh operating conditions, etc., and cannot meet market requirements.

[0024] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further explained below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] See also Figure 1 and Figure 3 , this embodiment discloses an impact-driven portable charger, including a base 1, a thrust bearing 2, a main shaft 3, a generator stator 4, a generator rotor 5, a chuck 6, a main bearing 7, a one-way bearing 8, an externally threaded sleeve 9, an internally threaded hollow sleeve 10, a return spring 11, a gland 12, a rubber cap 13 and a rectifier power storage module 14;

[0027] The main shaft 3 is vertically supported in the machine base 1 by means of a main bearing 7 with the aid of a chuck 6 embedded in the middle of the machine base 1, and is supported at the center of the machine base 1 by a thrust bearing 2 embedded in the center of the chassis of the machine base 1;

[0028] The generator stator 4 is wound around the center of the chassis in the base 1, and the generator rotor 5 is sleeved on the lower part of the main shaft 3 and covered on the upper part of the generator stator 4;

[0029] The external threaded sleeve 9 is sleeved on the upper part of the main shaft 3 through the one-way bearing 8, and the internal threaded hollow sleeve 10 is sleeved on the outside of the external threaded sleeve 9 through the transmission thread and driven by the disc-shaped return spring 11 to move upward and return to its original position;

[0030] The pressure cover 12 is embedded in the upper end of the base 1 and encapsulates the annular rectifying power storage module 14 in the cavity above the chuck 6. The rubber cap 13 with a flange is sleeved on the upper part of the base 1 and contacts the upper end surface of the internal thread hollow sleeve 10.

[0031] The voltage output coil of the generator stator 4 is connected to the lead-out cable through the rectifier power storage module 14 .

[0032] In this embodiment, the upper end of the disc-shaped return spring 11 is supported in the annular groove on the lower end surface of the internally threaded hollow sleeve 10 , and the lower end of the disc-shaped return spring 11 is supported on the flange on the inner side of the upper end of the chuck 6 .

[0033] In this embodiment, the generator stator 4 is mainly composed of an induction coil, and the generator rotor 5 is mainly composed of an inner magnetic pole and an outer ring of a counterweight ring that mainly serves to increase the rotational inertia.

[0034] In this embodiment, the lead-out cable can be connected to an electronic device via a charging connector at its end.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 , which is different from Example 1, is that in this embodiment, the upper end of the disc-shaped return spring 11 is supported on the flange at the upper end of the internally threaded hollow sleeve 10, and the lower end of the disc-shaped return spring 11 is supported in the annular groove at the upper end of the pressure cover 12.

[0037] The working process of the present invention is as follows:

[0038] Typical application cases of this embodiment are as follows Figure 4As shown, a notch is provided at the heel 1001 of the sole of the shoe to embed the portable charger therein and ensure that the top of the rubber cap 13 protrudes 3-5 mm from the upper surface of the sole, and the lead-out cable of the rectifier power storage module 14 passes through the shoe back pocket rib tube 1002 to connect with the personal electronic device. During the normal walking process of the user, the heel steps on the sole to drive the internal thread hollow sleeve 10 downward through the rubber cap 13 (at this time, the return spring 11 is compressed) and drives the external thread sleeve 9 to rotate forward through the coupling of the transmission thread between the internal thread hollow sleeve 10 and the external thread sleeve 9, and then drives the main shaft 3 and the generator rotor 5 to rotate forward through the one-way bearing 8 (at this time, it is in a locked state) and temporarily saves part of the mechanical energy in the form of rotational inertia. When the internal threaded hollow sleeve 10 is pressed to the lowest position, the coupling transmission between it and the external threaded sleeve 9 stops. At this time, the external threaded sleeve 9 stops rotating, while the main shaft 3 and the generator rotor 5 continue to rotate in the positive direction due to inertia without being constrained by the one-way bearing 8 (at this time it is in an unlocked state). Therefore, the coupling of the magnetic field generated by the stator coil of the generator and the magnetic pole of the rotor generates a pulsating induced potential. Finally, the rectifier circuit and energy storage battery of the rectifier power storage module are used to convert the mechanical energy contained in the heel stepping on the sole into electrical energy with stable voltage and charge personal electronic devices. When the heel is lifted, the rubber cap 13 and the reset spring 11 both begin to reset, and the extension of the reset spring 11 drives the internal thread hollow sleeve 10 to move upward. During this process, the coupling of the transmission thread between it and the external thread sleeve 9 drives the external thread sleeve 9 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the one-way bearing 8 is in an unlocked state, so it will not hinder the main shaft 3 and the generator rotor 5 from still rotating forward due to inertia. Therefore, the rotational inertia stored in the main shaft 3 and the generator rotor 5 can still be converted into electrical energy to continuously charge personal electronic devices. As the user steps on and releases the sole, the above process is repeated, so the present invention allows the user to convert the mechanical energy of his heel stepping into electrical energy and continuously charge his personal electronic devices while walking.

[0039] It is known from common technical knowledge that the present invention can be implemented by other embodiments that do not deviate from its spirit or essential features. Therefore, the above disclosed embodiments are only illustrative in all respects and are not exclusive. All changes within the scope of the present invention or within the scope equivalent to the present invention are included in the present invention.
