MUMBAI, India, June 30 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202631071269 A) filed by Jis Institute Of Advanced Studies And Research, Jis on June 08, 2026, for “integrated Piezoelectric Energy Harvester Embedded In A Hand-Operated Tube Well For Sustainable Rural Electricity Generation”.
Inventors include Debyendu Chakroborty; and Subhankar Singha.
The application for the patent was published on June 26, 2026, under issue no. 26/2026.
Abstract: Abstract An integrated electromechanical energy harvesting system is disclosed for installation within manual tube well pump structures to provide decentralized electricity generation in remote rural environments. The system comprises a piezoelectric transducer module structurally positioned beneath a reciprocating pump lever handle. The transducer module includes a plurality of piezoelectric ceramic discs arranged in a specialized series-parallel circuit configuration to optimize voltage and current profiles derived from variable, low-frequency manual pumping impacts. To ensure long-term dielectric performance in wet environments, the transducer module is fully encased in an activated alumina chemical moisture barrier layer. A solid-state energy management circuit rectifies the transient AC output into DC, buffers the energy in a supercapacitor array, and charges a secondary battery. An integrated NodeMCU microcontroller measures systemic power parameters and wirelessly transmits real-time telemetry to a remote cloud monitoring server using the MQTT protocol.
