The invention relates to the field of vehicles, in particular to a vibrational energy recovery device applied to a light truck and used for converting the vibrational energy generated by the light truck during a vibration process into electric energy. The device comprises a steel plate spring, a large lifting eye, a connecting rod and an energy conversion mechanism, wherein one end of the steel plate spring is fixed on a truck frame; the other end of the steel plate spring is fixed on the large lifting eye; the upper end of the large lifting eye is fixed on the truck frame; the lower end of the large lifting eye is in rotational connection with one end of the connecting rod; the other end of the connecting rod is hinged to a slide block in an energy conversion mechanism; the energy conversion mechanism is fixed on the truck frame. Through improvement of the steel plate spring and the lifting eye, and utilization of the energy conversion mechanism, the vibrational energy recovery device for the light truck has the advantages that vibrational energy of the truck can be recovered, that is, mechanical energy is converted into electric energy, and energy of high-frequency low-amplitude vibration can be recovered efficiently; moreover, electromagnetic damping is generated to improve the damping ratio of the steel plate spring.
