titleOfInvention | Energy harvesting systems, apparatus, and methods |
abstract | Energy harvesting apparatus, systems, and methods comprising a variable capacitor, a charge source, and an actuator. In some embodiments, the charge source places an initial charge on the capacitor. Meanwhile, the actuator is driven by a reciprocating (external) driver which varies the capacitance of the capacitor. The load is in communication with the capacitor such that, as its capacitance varies, it delivers power to the load. The load can be a battery which can be the source of the charge. Furthermore, the capacitor can further comprise a plurality of stacked capacitors. As to the conductive layers of the capacitor, one of them can further comprise a gel, grease, or oil. Note that the actuator can vary a thickness of the (pre-tensioned) dielectric layer and that the actuator can vary the area of the dielectric layer. Furthermore, a surface of the dielectric layer can be coated with a release agent. |
