⦿ A large amount of energy is wasted at the speed
breakers through friction , every time a vehicle
passes over it.

⦿ So electricity can be generated using the vehicle

weight and speed (kinetic energy) as input.

⦿ So, this is a small step to try to improve this

situation.
⦿ SPRING COIL
MECHANISM
⦿ ROLLER MECHANISM

⦿ CRANK-SHAFT
MECHANISM
⦿ RACK- PINION MECHANISM
⦿ Here we are making the speed breaker of vibrating type,
when a vehicle crosses the speed breaker, it gets
pressed and then it gets back to its original position.
⦿ Dimensions of speed breaker:-

Height : 0.2m
Width : 0.4m
: 4m
o The material used inLength
construction of speed breakers is steel.

o The shape of speed breaker is

trapezoidal .
• Height: 0.35m
• Length : 4m
• Width :0.45m
•The bottom layer
of the trench is filled
with concrete or
with wooden plates
of 0.5m.
•This is for cushion
effect.
⦿ The actual height of spring is 0.3m before loading.
⦿ The deflection of the spring is given
by
δ = 64 w *n*N*R^3 /(G^4)
⦿ where
⦿
⦿ δ-deflection (in our case maximum δ =0.1m)
⦿ w=designed load
⦿ R= mean diameter of coil
⦿ n=no of spring turns
⦿ G= Modulus of rigidity = 8*10^4 N/m^2
⦿ N= No. of springs
⦿ The no of turns in the spring to get the deflection
of 0.1m is given by
⦿ n= (0.1)G^4/(64 w*N*R^3)
⦿ Maximum load on the speed
breaker is when the vehicle
is on the middle of the speed
breaker.
⦿ When the pressure in the
FRL unit exceeds the
defined level the valve
opens and the pressurized
air is given to the
nozzle.
⦿ The diameter of the inlet
of nozzle must be
greater than outlet.
⦿ Here the pressure energy
is converted to kinetic
energy i.e pressure→high
velocity.
⦿ This high velocity
compressd air when hits
the runner,makes it to
rotate.
 It consists of a circular
disc on the periphery of
which have number of
buckets evenly spaced are
fixed. Each bucket is divided
in to 2 symmetrical parts by
a dividing wall is know as
splitter.

 When the air strikes the

runner ,it rotates &
continues rotation due to
inertia.
⦿ Here roller ,sprocket-
chain arrangement is
used.
⦿ Ratio of speed of roller
to dynamo shaft is 1:4.
⦿ Sprocket mechanism
⦿ Transfers rotary motion between
two shafts

⦿ Dynamo
⦿ Itis the dc generator which is
use to generate current
⦿ Generates current as per the
Faraday’s Law

⦿ The various machine elements used in the construction of power
hump are

⦿ RACK-PINION

⦿ SPROCKETS

⦿ GEARS

⦿ FLY WHEEL

⦿ Dynamo
⦿ Gear mechanism
⦿ The input gear transfers
rotational motion to the output
gear.

⦿ RACK-PINION

⦿ It coverts linear motion to

rotational and vice versa.
Fly wheel
⦿ Thisis used to regulate the energy and maintain the energy at an
uniform level so that the shaft rotate at an uniform r.p.m

Constructional details
⦿ Here the reciprocating motion of the speed-breaker is converted
into rotary motion using the rack and pinion arrangement.

⦿ Rack and pinion gears normally change rotary motion into linear
motion, but sometimes we use them to change linear motion
into rotary motion.

⦿ The axis of the pinion is coupled with the sprocket arrangement.

⦿ The axis of the smaller sprocket is coupled to a gear

arrangement.

⦿ Finally the gear arrangement is coupled with the generator

Merits Demerits

Pollution free power generation. Selecting suitable generator.

No obstruction to traffic. Selection of springs.

Low Budget electricity Achieving proper balance of

production speed and torque.

Easy maintenance It gives low electric output

⦿ This mechanism is very economical and easy to
install.
⦿ Two protocols of this type of speed breakers are
developed in India .not practically implemented
till date.
⦿ Practically implemented in New Jersey , China
and Indonesia.
⦿ Lots of researches and investigations are going
on to practically utilize this technique
⦿ By doing proper arrangements we may generate
high power electricity
⦿ The existing source of energy such as coal, oil
etc may not be adequate to meet the ever
increasing energy demands. These conventional
sources of energy are also depleting and may be
exhausted.
⦿ These are some non-conventional methods of
producing energy. This is a one step to path of
exploring the possibilities of energy from several
non-conventional energy sources.
