摘要
En 中文
Harvesting biomechanical energy from daily human body motions provides a promising and sustainable power solution for wearable electronics, whose current power supplies, i.e., batteries, have unsatisfactory capacity and durability due to volume, shape, and flexibility constraints. Electromagnetic generators (EMGs) are favorable energy transducers because of their high energy-conversion efficiency, low dependence on frequencies, and long-term stability. However, an EMG that can effectively harvest energy from multi-directional arm motions at aperiodic low frequencies are yet to be created. Here, we introduce a unique EMG configuration by combining a linear and a helix frame into a monolithic unit (EMG-LH), enabling the EMG to scavenge energy from all kinds of arm motions up to 6 degrees of freedom (DOFs) (movement along XYZ axes and forearm rotations). The EMG frame geometry is designed and optimized according to numerical simulations. To clarify the working mechanism and maximize the power output, the copper coils' winding pattern, the magnets' velocity profiles, and the resulting voltage output are numerically simulated and then experimentally verified. Our EMG-LH outperforms linear EMGs (EMG-Ls) and helix EMGs (EMG-Hs) in harvesting energy from all arm motions. This work explicitly presents a forearm-wearable energy harvester as a sustainable power source for wearable electronics.
