SYSTEM FOR COLLECTING ELECTRICITY FROM RAILWAYS Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC B61L1/04 

FIELD: transportation.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to railway telemechanics devices for collecting electricity from railway tracks. System includes a plurality of electromechanical vibration transducers for rails capable of generating electric power located in depressions in a plurality of sleepers under the rails, a power control device for the collected electric power, electrical conductors connecting said plurality of electromechanical transducers to a power control device for the collected electric power. Moreover, each electromechanical converter of rails vibration into electric power is made in the form of a magnetoelastic converter, in the center of the horizontal bottom of the recess of each sleeper there is a cylindrical projection, on the end of the magnetoelastic transducer conjugated to the bottom end there is a corresponding mating hole under the projection. When power is removed, diode bridge rectifiers are used, and the power control device of the collected electricity is made in the form of an inverter.

EFFECT: increase in the efficiency of converting the mechanical energy of rail vibration into electric power is achieved by reducing the level of the generated voltage.
