Abstract
In order to further improve the vibration energy harvesting efficiency of piezoelectric energy harvester under low frequency environmental excitation, this paper, based on the traditional magnetic tri-stable piezoelectric energy collector model, proposes a tri-stable piezoelectric energy harvester (TPEH+DEM) model with two elastic amplifiers which are installed between the U-shaped frame and the base and between the fixed end of the piezoelectric cantilever beam and the U-shaped frame respectively. Based on Hamilton principle, the motion equation of electromechanical coupling of TPEH+DEM system is established, and the analytical solutions of displacement, output voltage and power of the system are obtained by harmonic balance method. The effects of the mass of elastic amplifier, spring stiffness, magnet spacing and load resistance on the dynamic characteristics of energy harvesting of TPEH+DEM system are analyzed. The result shows that there are two peaks in the response output power of TPEH+DEM system in the operating frequency range. By adjusting the mass and stiffness of the elastic amplifier reasonably, the system can move into the inter-well motion under low external excitation intensity, and produce high output power. Compared with the traditional model which only has an elastic amplifier on the base of piezoelectric energy harvester, TPEH+DEM model has better energy harvesting performance under low frequency and low intensity external excitation.
