Utilizes a rack-and-pinion assembly coupled with a split-shaft two-stage planetary gearbox (1:25 ratio) to amplify rotational speed from minimal vertical motion.
Optimized for a vertical displacement of just 15–20 mm, ensuring natural walking experience without discomfort or fatigue.
Equipped with a NEMA 23 stepper motor operating as a low-RPM generator, producing stable 2-phase AC power suitable for rectification and storage.
Eliminates fragile piezo materials by using CNC-machined Aluminum 6061, case-hardened steel shafts, and elastomeric hard stops for extended lifecycle performance.
Integrated with MPPT charge controllers and LiFePO₄ BMS, enabling optimized charging, power conditioning, and long-term energy storage.
Elastomeric displacement limiters prevent over-travel, protecting the gearbox, rack system, and generator from impact damage.
