The document describes a hardware project to design a speed breaker power generation model using a rack and pinion arrangement. It includes 6 team members and their guides. The project aims to convert the kinetic energy of passing vehicles into electrical energy. It works by using the rack and pinion mechanism to convert vehicle movement into rotational motion that turns a generator to produce electricity stored in a battery. The major components, design specifications, theoretical power calculations, experimental results and advantages are provided.

4. OVERVIEW
In todays world, almost every equipment requires
electricity for its working.
This is one of the conventional method for the
generation of electricity from the otherwise wasted
energy.
All moving vehicles possess kinetic energy, which can
be used for the generation of electricity.
When a vehicle passes through the speed breaker it
generates electricity.
5. AIM
To design and develop a speed breaker power
generation model with rack & pinion arrangement.
6. Working Principal
The kinetic energy of the moving vehicles can be converted
into mechanical energy of the shaft through rack and pinion
mechanism.
This mechanical energy will be converted to electrical energy
using generator which will be saved with the use of a battery .
[A]
9. Working Operation
Vehicle load acted upon the speed breaker system is
transmitted to rack and pinion arrangements.
Reciprocating motion of the speed-breaker is
converted into rotary motion using the rack and
pinion arrangement.
The sprockets are connected with chain drive which
transmits the power from the top sprocket to the
bottom sprocket.
The axis of the bottom sprocket is coupled to a spur
gear arrangement.
Speed is sufficient to rotate the rotor of a generator
and is fed into the rotor of a generator.
10. Working Operation
The rotor which rotates within a static magnetic stator
cuts the magnetic flux surrounding it, thus producing
the electric motive force (emf).
This generated emf is then sent to an inverter, where
the generated emf is regulated.
Regulated emf is now sent to the storage battery where
it is stored during the day time and can be used in
night time .

14. DESIGN SPECIFICATION
Rack:
Length of Rack = 150mm
Number of Teeth = 40
Material = Cast Iron Grade A
Pinion:
Dia of Pinion = 25mm
Number of Teeth = 22
Material = Cast Iron Grade A
Spur Gear:
Dia of gear = 60mm
Number of Teeth = 50
Material = Cast Iron Grade A
15. Closed Helical Spring:
Spring length = 22cm
No of turns = 20
Wire Dia = 1 mm
Material = copper Alloy
Bearing:
Inner Diameter(d) = 20 mm
Outer Diameter(D) = 30 mm
ISI NO = 10BC02
Bearing no = 6200
Material = steel
16. Shaft:
Dia of shaft = 16 mm
Length = 200mm
Material = High grade steel
Sprocket Wheel:
Sprocket Dia = 50 mm
Material = Cast iron grad A
Chain Drive:
Length = 700 mm
Chain Width = 7 mm
Material = steel
17. Wooden base:
Size = 310mm X 150mm
Cast Iron Bar(H Frame):
Size = 400mm X 220mm
Speedbreaker:
Height = 80mm
18. Power & Load Calculations:
Material of spring = ASTM A240 steel(G=40GPa)
Wire dia of spring (d) = 1 mm
Outer dia of spring(D) = 4 mm
No of coil (n) = 20
Mean coil dia = D-d = 3 mm
Stiffness of spring k = Gd^4 /8 D3 n
= 1.5 N/mm
19. Power & Load Calculation(Theoretical ):
Stiffness of spring k = Load/Deflection of spring under load
LOAD = K* Deflection
= 1.5*50 = 75 N
This load acting on one spring but we consider two spring ,so
total force acting on both spring = 2*75 = 150N
Mass acting on both springs = 150/9.8 = 15.3kg
Now we consider mass of body acting on speed breaker is
15.3 kg
20. Height of speed breaker = 80mm
Weight acting on speed breaker = 15.3* 9.81 = 150.09 N
Work done = force * displacement
= 150.09 * 80/1000 = 12J
Power obtained for one pulsing = 12/60 = 0.2 Watt
Power obtained in one day = 0.2*60*24 = 288 Watt
= 0.288KW
Power & Load Calculation(Theoretical ):
21. Experimental Calculation:
The generated output voltage in one pushing forces of speed
breaker . V = 1.88 v
Current in the circuit in one pushing forces of speed breaker.
I = 17 mA
As per ohms law, P = V*I
= 1.88*17*10^(-3) = 0.03Watt.
22. Efficiency:
侶 = (Theoretical Power - experimental power)/
Theoretical power
= (0.2-0.03)/0.2 = 0.85
%侶 = 0.85*100 = 85%
25. Future Scope [F]
Eco-Friendly Energy Generation through Speed Breaker.
Suitable at parking of multiplexes, malls, toll booths,
signals, etc.
The shortage of light can be reduced at some extent.
Wastage of energy of vehicles passing on roads can be
minimized.
Such speed breakers can be designed for heavy vehicles,
thus increasing input weight and ultimately increasing
output of generator.
26. Advantages
Power generation with low cost and using non-
conventional energy sources which will help us to conserve
the conventional energy sources to meet the future
demand.
By using this method, electricity will be generated
throughout the year without depending on other factors.
Easy for maintenance and no fuel transportation problem.
Pollution free power generation.
Less floor area required and no obstruction to traffic.
No need of manpower during power generation.
27. Disadvantages
Only applicable for the particular place.
Mechanical moving parts is high
Initial cost of this arrangement is high.
Care should be taken for batteries
28. Conclusions
Government focuses on utilizing the non-conventional
energy sources for electricity generation and reducing
the share of global warming.
The techniques described in our project will also
contribute to the power generation nationally with
some more modifications in the model.
As per our survey we conclude that Rack and Pinion
mechanism is efficient [G] as well as cost effective
mechanism for generation of electricity from speed
breaker.
