Abstract
Provided is an electricity generating module. The electricity generating module comprises: a cylinder; a piston that reciprocates inside the cylinder; and a power generating fiber of which one end is fixed to the piston and the other end is fixed to the cylinder, and of which the length varies according to the reciprocating of the piston, wherein, as the length of the power generating fiber varies, a potential value of the power generating fiber varies, and electricity is generated by using the varied potential value of the power generating fiber.
Claims14
An electricity generating module comprising:
- a cylinder;
- piston reciprocating inside the cylinder;
- and
- a power generating fiber having one end fixed to the piston and an opposite end fixed to the cylinder, in which a length of the power generating fiber varies as the piston reciprocates,
- wherein a potential value of the power generating fiber varies as length of the power generating fiber varies, and electricity is generated by using the varied potential value of the power generating fiber.
The electricity generating module of claim wherein a surface area of the power generating fiber varies as the length of the power generating fiber varies, and
- the potential value of the power generating fiber varies as the surface area of the electric power generating fiber varies.
An electricity generating method by an electricity generating module which includes a cylinder, a piston reciprocating inside the cylinder, and a power generating fiber having one end fixed to the piston and an opposite end fixed to the cylinder, the electricity generating method comprising:
- allowing the piston to reciprocate in the cylinder by an external force;
- changing a length of the power generating fiber according to reciprocation of the piston, changing a surface area of the power generating fiber according to a change in the length of the power generating fiber, and changing a potential value according to a change in the surface area of the power generating fiber;
- and
- generating power by using the changed potential value of the power generating fiber.
