FIELD: electricity.
SUBSTANCE: in method of obtaining and accumulating electric power from the human body, the heat energy released by the human body is used to operate the Stirling heat engine, which is made with the possibility to convert the temperature difference at two points of space into mechanical motion transmitted to a generator generating an electric current that, in turn, charges the battery. An autonomous self-charging power source using the heat energy emitted by the human body contains a battery charged by a generator generating an electric current that is driven by the mechanical motion transmitted from the Stirling heat engine, the working fluid of which is enclosed in the isolated space and the engine is driven by alternating heating and cooling of the working fluid. The working fluid heating is carried out by the thermal energy released by the human body, and the working fluid cooling is carried out through the cooler by the surrounding space. A wearable electronic device that can be worn on a human body comprises an autonomous self-charging power source. Wherein the wearable electronic device can be made in the form of a computer.
EFFECT: appearance of electric current and accumulating the electrical power for the constant autonomous self-charging of the power source for electronic devices in contact with the human body by converting the heat energy produced by the human body, increasing the autonomy of the work of the electronic device worn on the human body, substantially increasing the device operation time without using external sources of electrical power, improving the operation reliability and durability of the electronic device in contact with the human body.
