An innovative technique of electricity generation and washing machine application using treadmill

摘要

The scope of this paper focuses upon a method of generating electrical energy from the application of specially designed treadmill with the provision of specially designed washing machine, which will work when a human runs over a treadmill for exercise which is an integral part of modern society life. In this proposed model, a permanent magnet dc generator of 1200 W rating is used which will produce dc power, which can be further used for electrical utilities and small power applications. The washing machine system involves a tub type arrangement which is connected to the treadmill via gearbox system. The power produced by the execution of aforementioned design is used to fulfill all the basic requirements of electrical appliances of household such as mobile battery charging, emergency battery backup for lights etc. The goal of this research paper is to exploit mechanical energy of rotating belt as an alternative source for the generation of electrical energy for the applications of basic daily household needs. This technology will help in reduce considerably, the fuel consumption required for the electrical power generation for fulfilling the electrical requirements of household appliances.
