This document proposes a design to generate electricity from speed breakers. Speed breakers would be fitted with helical springs so that they vibrate up and down as vehicles pass over them. This movement would drive an impeller connected to an alternator to generate electricity. The vibrations from vehicles compressing and decompressing the spring-loaded speed breakers would provide pneumatic energy to power the alternator. The document estimates that up to 100 kW of electricity could be generated in this way, providing a low-cost source of power for lighting streets and charging batteries.

Mr. Ashish Kumar Dubey Mahesh Choudhary Project head (EE) Abstract: This is a power project based on the fact that how electricity can be generated with the help of speed breaker by making gear arrangement and using electronics gadgets, thus a huge amount of electricity can be generated saving lot of money. And if implemented will be very beneficial for Government Introduction: Currently there are various methods for electricity generation. Here is a novel method for generating electricity from speed breakers which is eco- friendly. In our design, the speed breakers have to be made with springs. When a vehicle loads a speed breaker it compresses air and this air is used to drive the impeller. This serves as a source for the alternator. Thus in this model, going to present a new method of electricity generation. Hope this design will be implemented soon !!! Sources of Energy:
The various sources of energy are
Solar Tidal Wind etc… In this modal we are using the speed breaker as one of the energy source. Speed breakers: In Indian roads, currently we have speed breakers of rigid type, made of steel or with tar. When a heavy load crosses the speed breaker it remains unreformed, which alone limits the speed of vehicles The national highways come with minimum 8 meters wide, 0.015m thickness. We are proposing slight changes in the current roads Proposed design:
Here we are making the speed breaker of
vibrating type, when a vehicle crosses the speed breaker, it gets depressed and then it gets back to its original position. Dimensions Height of speed breaker : 0.2m Width of speed breaker : 0.4m Length of speed breaker : 4m Material used for speed breaker: Steel Speed breaker –design:
The speed breakers are fitted with
helical spring at the base. The shape of speed breaker is trapezoidal, because when a vehicle comes to point A, the load will be acting between A and B. The dimensions are Height: 0.35m Length : 4m Width :0.45m Impact of vehicle on speed breaker Maximum load on speed breaker Vehicle leaving the speed breaker Runner Alternator:
An electrical generator is a machine which
converts mechanical energy in to electrical energy. The energy conversion is based on the principle of production of dynamically induced e.m.f. According to Faraday’s laws of electromagnetic induction, whenever a conductor cuts magnetic flux, dynamically induced e.m.f. is produced in it. This e.m.f causes a current to flow if the conductor circuit is closed Scope, Merits and Uses: Low Budget electricity production Less floor area No obstruction to traffic Easy maintenance Suitable at parking of multiplexes, malls, toll booths, signals, etc. Uses: Charging batteries and using them to light up the streets, etc. Conclusion:
In this modal, showing about a new
approach of generation of electricity from the speed breaker. This can generate up to 100Kwatts of power which can be used for various purposes. Here we have converted the mechanical energy to pneumatic energy then to electrical energy. This design will help to reduce the cost of electricity generation THANKYOU QURIES Mahesh choudhary My e-mail address- mahesh3x@gmail.com,mahesh.ee2007@ymail.co m .
