DESIGN OF POWER GENERATING SPEED BREAKER
I. INTRODUCTION
Energyisanimportantpartofeveryone’slife.Everyevent in day to day we require energy. But nowadays we see thereissomehowshortage ofenergyfacebyworld.Crisis
ofenergyisthemainproblemgeneratedthesedays.Many conventionalsourcesarealsodepletinglikecoal,oil,fossil fuelsetc.Wehavetofindasolutiontotheseproblemsand need to find alternative sources to generate energy as good as good. There is also increasing in population rate over the world, especiallyinIndiathe growth rateis very high. Due to rate of population increased, vehicles on roadsarealsoincreasingin largenumbers.Energycan be createdinlargeamountwhenvehiclearepassesonroads but this energy is wasted as there is no implement to use thatenergy.So,thisisourresponsibilitytousethiskindof energy for good source of purpose. By implementing specially designed speed breaker setup on roads we use energy produced from it. We can convert this mechanical engineering into useful energy. When the vehicle passes on speed breakers which are implemented in various positions to slow down the vehicles, safety purpose, the energyisproducedbythissetup.
By generating that kind of energy and overcome the energy crises problem, we made a project on this. There are many kinds of mechanism we can use in this set up like Roller mechanism, Rack and pinion mechanism, Hydraulic mechanism, Crank shaft mechanism. We use Rack and pinion mechanism in our project. The vehicle's weight and speed can be used to generate energy. The methodemploysaspeedbreakerpress,whichisthenused in conjunction with a rack and pinion arrangement to press down and run the generator motor, creating electricity. The speed breaker is returned to its original positionusingthespring mechanism. Thisiswecanstore somewhereandmaketheuseofthisenergyindaytoday life like in street lights, singles, Toll tax collection center, etc. This project is eco friendly and their less need of manpower. It is a cheap source, pollution free and requiredlessfloorarea.Andthisisarenewablesourceso depletion not occurs in this. So, we are generating electricity (energy) without depending on any other factors.Technologyalsohelpsto conserve natural source. Andlastlyitisagoodalternativesourceoverthedepleting conventionalsources.

kinetic and potential energies to electrical energy. The mass of the driving vehicle experiences vertical translation as a result of the speed bumps systems, resultinginpotentialandkineticenergy.
For the construction of an energy conversion system for the extraction of kinetic energy from vehicles, an appropriate and efficient topology is required. The purpose of this work is to present a new speed breaker generator(SBG)forextractingkineticenergyfromvehicle trafficinthestreet.Thisdeviceconvertsthekineticenergy ofthevehiclesintoelectricenergy.
N. N. Ghuge (2014) explains vehicular traffic in big cities is more, causing a problem to human being. It has advantagethatitdoesnotutilizeanyexternalsource.Now is the moment to put these types of new ideas front and centre,andresearchshouldbeconductedtoimprovetheir impact.Thiscanbeimplementedatmetropolitancities.
III. METHODOLOGY
Fig.1
The principle of electricity generation through speed breaker is fundamentally based on converting the kinetic andpotentialenergiesofvehiclestoelectricenergy.When vehiclespassoverthespeedbreaker,kineticandpotential energies are produced from the vertical displacement of speed breaker. This energy is then converted into electricitywiththehelpofgeneratorandchargingcircuit.
There are number of proposed ways to convert up and down motion of speed breaker into rotary motion. They are
Rollermechanism
Crank shaftmechanism

IV. COMPONENTS USED
1) SpeedBreaker
Speed Breaker is used transform the force exerted by vehicles on the other arrangements, thereby producing downwardmotiononthecyclicrake.Thespeedbreakeris made up of C 25 carbon steel. The speed breaker is designed in such a way that the road acts as a one way. Thedimensionsofthespeedbreakerarementionedinthe followingtable.
2) CurvedRack
Fig.2
When an object needs to perform circular motion, then curvedrackisused.Themovingtrackofthisdevicecanbe driven by a motor situated in the middle if the diameter of the moving track is reasonably small. However, if the diameter is relatively large, the same friction force is eliminated,becausethediameterislarge,theoutputtorque of the motor is also greater. If the diameter is large, a very largeoutputtorqueislarge;theoutputtorqueofthemotor isalsogreater.

If the diameter is large, a very large output torque is required, and it is not easy to control, therefore we have used a curved rack. In this project, the speed breaker follows a rotational motion through one end of speed breaker.

4) Bearing
A bearing is a machine detail that constrains relative motion and decreases friction between shifting parts to simplest the favored motion. The design of the bearing may also, for example, offer without spending a dime linear motion of the transferring part or free of charge rotation round a hard and fast axis; or, it may save you a motion via controlling the vectors of regular forces that endure at the moving elements. Many bearings also facilitate the preferred motion as a lot as viable, inclusive of via minimizing friction. Bearings used here are Ball Bearings and are installed at the crank shaft for connectingtheconnectingrod.
5) Gearsystem
Gears are used here for amplifying the velocity. The form ofgearsusedinthisversion isSpurGears. Twogearsout ofwhichoneisapinionandotherisabiggergearareused righthere.Thesegearsmeshwithoneanothersoonecan transmit torque. A transmission is a pair of gears that worktogethertocreateamechanicaladvantage.
6) Generator
Fig.4
In this system, a 500 rpm DC generator is employed to transform mechanical input from mechanical setups into electrical output. The rotation of the shaft derived from the curved rack and pinion system feeds the input to the DCgenerator.

4) BearingDesign:
LetusassumetheradialforceactingonthebearingbeFr= 3000N, From PSG 4.13, Selecting Deep groove ball bearing (DGBB) SKF6206, Andweget, d=30mm,D1 =36mm,D=62mm,D2 =56mm,B =16mm,r=1.5mm,r1 =1mm,C0 =1000Kgf,C= 1530Kgf.
We know that, Equivalent dynamic load capacity, Pe = S(VXFr +YFa) X=1, Y=0, V=1(forInnerrace), S=1.2 Hence,Pe =1.2(1*1*3000) =3600N
Therelationbetweenthebearinglifeandthedynamicload capacityisexpressedas, Lmr=(C/Pe )k Where,K=3,forballbearing, Lmr =(15300/3600) 3 =76.765millionsofrevolutions.
Rating life of bearing at 90% reliability in operating hours is, Lmr=Lhr *N*60/106,
Now,asgearratiois3 Rotations of generator shaft per stroke = rotations of any gear(smallorlarge)*3 Rotationsofgeneratorshaft=4.8*3=14.4 Now,letassume120vehiclepassesin1hour. No.ofvehiclespermin.=2 Rotationsofgeneratorshaft=28.8RPM
We should change the unit of rotational speed as rad/s (radianpersecond)
1rotation=360degree=6.28rad 1rpm=6.28/60rad/sec.=49.737 =0.10466667rad/s 28.8rpm=3.014400096rad/sec
