  • Power conversion system
    Patent number: 6858952
    Abstract: A power conversion system converts the horizontal momentum and downward forces of wheeled vehicles into a circular motion capable of driving a shaft, which can be used for generating electricity. The power conversion system includes a torque limiting device that minimizes the amount of reaction vehicle wheels experience when encountering an actuation member, minimizes the pressure required to depress the actuation member, introduces the rapid movement of passing wheeled vehicles gradually into the system, and prevents excessive loading at the drive shaft.
    Type: Grant
