摘要： Methods and apparatus to power an exercise machine are disclosed herein. An example method includes measuring a power supply current produced by a user of the exercise machine. A rotations per minute of the exercise machine is measured. A power supply reference current is determined, the power supply reference current based on a user selected wattage and the rotations per minute. A differential power supply current is calculated based on the power supply reference current and a measured current of a power supply of the exercise machine. A power supply duty cycle is calculated based on a previous power supply duty cycle, a time constant, the differential power supply current, and a previous differential power supply current, the power supply duty cycle to control power supplied to a console of the exercise machine. The power supply duty cycle is output to a power output controller.

摘要： An energy harvesting apparatus utilizes a modular structure to preserve the proper alignment between a chain of energy-producing elements and an energy-producing channel (within which the chain is located and free to slide along, creating electrical energy from mechanical movement). The channel includes a plurality of rigid modules that are separated by flexible segments of tubing. The rigid channel modules house the energy-producing electrodes and/or coils. The chain includes a plurality of rigid modules that are attached along a flexible string in a spaced-apart configuration. The rigid chain modules house the energy-producing magnets and/or conductive droplets. The combination of the flexible channel segments and chain string allow for freedom of motion of the apparatus (required for human locomotion, for example), while providing the desired “fixed” alignment between the rigid energy-producing modules.
