Abstract
A magnetoelectric generator according to the present invention includes: a bowl-shaped flywheel that rotates around an axis of rotation; a permanent magnet unit that is fixed to an inner circumferential wall surface of the flywheel and in which adjacent permanent magnets are linked by means of a linking member; a stator core that is disposed inside the permanent magnet unit and that has a plurality of teeth that project radially outward; and a generating coil that is configured by winding conducting wire onto each of the teeth.
Claims20
A magnet unit comprising:
- a permanent magnet unit to be mounted on an inner circumferential wall surface of a bowl-shaped flywheel of a magnetoelectric generator, the permanent magnet unit comprising at least two adjacent permanent magnets that are linked to each other by only a linking member, wherein at least one of the two adjacent permanent magnets contacts only one side of the linking member, and
- wherein the magnetoelectric generator comprises:
- the bowl-shaped flywheel that rotates around an axis of rotation;
- the permanent magnet unit mounted on the inner circumferential wall surface of said bowl-shaped flywheel;
- a stator core that is disposed inside said permanent magnet unit and that has a plurality of teeth that project radially outward;
- and
- a generating coil that is configured by winding conducting wire onto each of said teeth.
