POWER-GENERATING ELEMENT, ENCODER, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING MAGNETIC MEMBER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240312680 titled 'POWER-GENERATING ELEMENT, ENCODER, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING MAGNETIC MEMBER

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a power generation element with a magnetic member that enhances power generation, an encoder, and a method of manufacturing a magnetic member to increase generated power.

• The power generation element includes a magnetic member that produces a large Barkhausen effect, a coil wound around the magnetic member, and a ferrite member aligned with the coil along the winding axis direction of the coil.
• The ferrite member consists of a main body inside a columnar space and a protrusion connected to the main body outside the columnar space.
• The columnar space is surrounded by virtual planes that are in contact with both ends of the magnetic member in the winding axis direction of the coil and are orthogonal to the winding axis direction.

Key Features and Innovation:

• Magnetic member with a large Barkhausen effect
• Coil wound around the magnetic member
• Ferrite member aligned with the coil along the winding axis direction
• Columnar space surrounded by virtual planes for enhanced power generation

Potential Applications: This technology can be used in various power generation applications, such as renewable energy systems, electric vehicles, and portable electronic devices.

Problems Solved: This technology addresses the need for increased power generation efficiency and output in various electrical devices and systems.

Benefits:

• Enhanced power generation efficiency
• Increased power output
• Improved performance of electrical devices and systems

Commercial Applications: Potential commercial applications include renewable energy systems, electric vehicle charging stations, and portable power banks for electronic devices.

Questions about Magnetic Member Power Generation Element: 1. How does the magnetic member with a large Barkhausen effect contribute to increased power generation? 2. What are the specific advantages of aligning the ferrite member with the coil along the winding axis direction?

Frequently Updated Research: Ongoing research in the field of power generation elements focuses on improving efficiency and output through innovative magnetic materials and coil designs.

Original Abstract Submitted

provided are a power generation element, an encoder, and a method of manufacturing a magnetic member capable of increasing generated power. power generation element includes magnetic member that produces a large barkhausen effect, coil wound around magnetic member, and ferrite member provided at an end of magnetic member to be aligned with coil along a winding axis direction of coil. ferrite member includes main body located inside columnar space and protrusion connected to main body and located outside columnar space. columnar space is surrounded by a virtual plane when it is assumed that an outer edge of coil when viewed from the winding axis direction of coil is extended to both sides of the coil in the winding axis direction of coil, and is sandwiched between two virtual planes that are in contact with both ends of magnetic member in the winding axis direction of coil and are orthogonal to the winding axis direction.
