## Abstract

An auxiliary generating system includes a plurality of weight members delivered repeatedly by a conveying device. The weight members are delivered upward by the conveying device to the upper end of a hollow conduit, then pass through the hollow conduit, then fall into multiple carrying grooves of a rotating wheel to rotate the rotating wheel and are then dropped onto the conveying device. When the rotating wheel is rotated, a gearbox and a generator are driven to operate. When the generator reaches a determined rotation speed, the generator produces an electric power.
