Abstract

A hiking stick is generally one of the walking aids that allow hikers to walk while relying on their own bodies when walking. A rechargeable battery must be built into the hiking stick, which is an auxiliary device, in order to perform various functions. A separate power supply is required to charge the rechargeable battery. This study is about a self-generated power supply and develops a power generation device using a screw with higher power generation efficiency than the existing method. It is differentiated from the method suggested in this study by comparing and analyzing it with the existing power generation method, and identifying problems therewith. The screw-type power generation device generates power when the climbing stick comes into contact with the ground and when it is separated from the ground. The built-in power generation device does not require a separate power supply, and it can be used by attaching the role of a mobile phone auxiliary battery and a lighting lamp, and it has the effect of being able to find it through location tracking by embedding a GPS sensor, etc., and using lighting to keep the user safe in emergency situations such as distress. The existing generator with built-in mountain climbing stick is difficult to charge due to very weak current and low practicality, but the generator developed in this research could achieve high efficiency to obtain a sufficient current, so it is possible to charge a battery and practicality.

등산스틱은 일반적으로 산행하는 등산객 등이 보행 시 자신의 신체를 의지하면서 보행이 가능하도록 하는 보행 보조도구의 하나이다. 이러한 보조기구인 등산스틱에 다양한 기능을 수행할 수 있도록 하기 위해 충전용 배터리가 내장되어야 한다. 충전용 배터리를 충전하기 위해 별도의 전원공급장치가 필요하다. 본 연구는 자가발전 전원장치에 대한 것으로 기존의 방식보다 발전효율이 높은 스크루를 이용한 발전장치를 개발한다. 기존의 발전 방식 등과 비교 분석하고 이에 대한 문제점을 파악하여 본 연구에서 제시한 방식과 차별화를 둔다. 스크루 방식의 발전장치는 등산스틱이 지면에 접촉할 때와 지면과 떨어질 때 발전하도록 한다. 발전장치의 내장으로 별도의 전원공급장치가 필요 없고, 휴대폰 보조배터리의 역할과 조명등을 부착하여 사용할 수 있고, GPS 센서 등을 내장하여 위치 추적을 통해 길을 잃었을 때 찾을 수 있고 조명을 이용해 조난 등 위급한 상황에서 사용자의 안전을 지킬 수 있는 효과가 있다. 기존의 등산스틱 내장형 발전장치는 전류가 매우 약해 충전이 어렵고 실용성이 낫다. 본 연구에서 개발한 발전장치는 고효율을 실현하여 충분한 전류를 얻을 수 있어 배터리 충전이 가능하고 실용성이 높다.
