Apparatus and methods for harvesting kinetic energy are provided. The device may include a plurality of dielectric elastomeric membranes, a rigid connecting rod, and a mountable support base. The film layer has a funnel shape with a narrow opening portion and a wide peripheral portion. The film layer is adjacent to other film layers having opposite orientations defined by the narrow opening portion and the wide peripheral portion. The narrow opening portion is coupled to a first end portion of the connecting rod. The wide peripheral portion is fixed relative to the support base. Applying a linear force in a first direction at a second end portion of the connecting rod causes at least the first film layer to stretch. Applying the force in a second direction opposite the first direction causes at least a second film layer adjacent the first film layer to stretch.
提供了用于收获动能的装置和方法。所述装置可以包括多个介电弹性体膜、刚性的连接杆和可安装的支撑基座。膜层具有漏斗形状,具有窄开口部分和宽周边部分。膜层与具有由所述窄开口部分和宽周边部分限定的相反取向的其他膜层相邻。所述窄开口部分被耦合到所述连接杆的第一末端部分。所述宽周边部分相对于所述支撑基座固定。在所述连接杆的第二末端部分处以第一方向施加线性力至少导致第一膜层拉伸。以与所述第一方向相反的第二方向施加所述力至少导致与所述第一膜层相邻的第二膜层拉伸。
