Abstract

An energy platform system for generating electrical energy from the weight of a moving vehicle. The system comprises a fluid bed containing a volume of fluid which is compressible by the weight of the moving vehicle driven thereover. A circulation system is in fluid communication with the fluid bed for receiving the fluid forced from within the bladder. The circulation system is operable is operable to translate the energy of the fluid circulated therethrough into mechanical energy. The platform system additionally comprises a generator cooperatively engaged to the circulation assembly and operable to convert the mechanical energy of the circulation system into electrical energy. It is further contemplated that electricity may be produced by the movement of a vehicle over a platform mechanically coupled to a linear generator. Accordingly, the linear generator moves in relation to the movement of the platform such that the linear generator is operative to generate an electrical current thereby.
