摘要： An energy harvester apparatus that includes a piezoelectric beam having opposing first and second ends, with the first end being fixedly supported to a support structure. A negative spring force subsystem has a first end fixedly secured against movement, and a second end secured to the second end of said piezoelectric beam. The negative spring force subsystem includes a linkage system and a biasing element operably associated with the linkage system for applying an adjustable, negative spring force to the piezoelectric beam to soften the piezoelectric beam. The negative spring force subsystem is adjusted to flex the beam sufficiently to overcome the inherent stiffness of the beam such that two stable positions for the beam are created. The beam is therefore able to oscillate between the two stable positions in an over center fashion in response to a low magnitude vibration signal. In various embodiments the system is implemented to provide an input drive signal to control various types of external devices.

摘要： A non-linear, piezoelectric mechanical-to-electrical generator especially well adapted for use with a Stirling engine, to thus form an electrical power generation system. In one form the generator includes a flexible beam that is configured in a bowed orientation to exert a compressive stress on a piezoceramic stack. A mechanical, linearly reciprocating member is positioned against the flexible beam at a midpoint of the beam. The mechanical member applies a force to the flexible beam that initially tends to flatten the flexible beam, which increases the compressive stress applied to the piezoceramic stack, thus compressing the stack and causing it to generate an electrical output signal. When the mechanical member removes the force, the flexible beam reverts to its initial, bowed configuration. This allows the piezoceramic stack to decompress, and it generates another electrical signal. This alternating compressing and decompressing of the piezoceramic stack causes a series of electrical signals to be generated from the stack. The apparatus forms a lightweight, compact means for converting a linear, reciprocating mechanical output signal into electrical power.

摘要： A method is disclosed for controlling a flight trajectory of a spinning projectile. In one aspect the method may involve supporting a nose of the projectile in a manner permitting the nose to be wobbled. At least one electrically responsive component may be coupled at a first end to the nose and at a second end to a base portion of the projectile. An angular position of the nose of the projectile may be sensed as the projectile flies through an atmosphere after being fired from a weapon. An electrical signal is controllably applied to the electrically responsive component, in relation to the sensed angular position of the nose, to control an attitude of the nose during flight of the projectile.
