Abstract

A power generating apparatus comprises a base, a rotary disk, a driving piece, a first energy gathering device and a pole. The rotary disk is pivotally connected to the base. The driving piece is connected to the rotary disk for controlling the rotary disk rotating. The first energy gathering device is disposed on the rotary disk. The pole is pivotally connected to the rotary disk, wherein a first heavy block is disposed at the end of the pole; an elastic piece is connected respectively to a front end of the pole and the first energy gathering device such that when the rotary disk rotates, the pole is kept vertically downwards and the elastic piece is stretched; while the pole moves with the rotary disk to a certain angle, the elastic piece is restored, so as to drive the first energy gathering device to gather energy.

Dependent claims

A power generating apparatus, comprising:

a base;
a rotary disk pivotally connected to said base;
a driving piece connected to said rotary disk for controlling said rotary disk rotating;
a first energy gathering device disposed on said rotary disk;
and
a pole pivotally connected to said rotary disk, wherein an end of said pole is extended beyond the center of said rotary disk and a first heavy block is disposed at said end of said pole;
an elastic piece is connected respectively to a front end of said pole and said first energy gathering device such that when said rotary disk rotates, said pole is kept vertically downwards because of gravity and said elastic piece is stretched because of the rotation of said rotary disk;
while said pole moves with said rotary disk to a certain angle, said elastic piece is restored, so as to drive said first energy gathering device to operate to gather energy.
