One Page Project Summary 1. Project Background
People in countries with inadequate infrastructure have an unmet need for electricity. A bicycle rotation energy harvesting system is a possible source for creating and storing power.
This system could provide the energy required for light, communication, or water treatment by converting kinetic energy to electrical energy for small electronic devices.
2. Problem Statement
Our goal is to transform kinetic energy within a bicycle into an electric power source intended to charge a cell phone. Our device is expected to be cheap to build, easy to install, maintain and use.

6V VoltageRegulator
Circuit Diagram for the MIT Device
The MIT device uses a 12 V DC motor, a 6V voltage regulator and a 470uF Capacitor. The circuit diagram is shown above.The function of this circuit is to stabilize the DC output from the DC motor and regulate it to a 6V constant output.
Circuits Overview• The voltage supplied by a USB port is nominally 5V. In practical, the
output is between 4.75V and 5.25V. A constant DC output of 5V is needed for the design.

Circuits Overview• The testing on excising dynamos and products shows that the
output of an AC motor is similar to a sin wave. Assuming that the output from the motor is a sin wave with 12V amplitude, 100Hz frequency, and 0 V offset. The first step is to use a Bridge Rectifier to rectify the output voltage. The output from the rectifier is always positive. The circuit diagram and simulation are shown below. As we can see, there is a voltage drop of . is the diode voltage.

Circuits Overview• The second step is stabilize the voltage output in a smaller range
then it is regulated to 5V constant DC output using a voltage regulator. The circuit diagram and simulations are shown. Capacitor C8 and C9 are used to additionally stabilize the voltage.

Additional Zener diode Circuit
As shown in circuit above, a 10V Zener diode is added. The Zener diode does not affect the function of the circuit. It is used to prevent high voltage input damage the voltage regulator. It is not necessary if the output of the motor is always lower than 25V.
Circuits Overview• At the end, after we get the 5V constant output. The
output pins will connect to a standard A-type USB connector. The pin 1 and 4 will be connected to the positive 5V pin and the ground of the circuit. The data transfer pins will also be grounded.
• Using the pin out below, all different kinds of USB to cellphone connectors can be made.
Circuits Overview• In the design process, we decided to use a DC motor instead of
an AC motor because of the price of the motors. The bridge rectifier is no longer necessary.
• Assume the 12V DC motor is used in our design. The output from the motor is approximately 5V DC voltage with ripples. The design shown below is used to regulate the voltage output.
