Abstract
This invention describes a device for the generation of electric energy from small movements which comprises: a magnet with the shape of a solid of revolution which comprises at least a couple of poles (N, S) placed around an axis of revolution; a tube whose transversal section is complementary to the shape of the magnet, and which comprises a winding rolled transversally around it, with the magnet placed in the interior of the tube so that an inclination of the tube causes the magnet to roll, traveling along the interior of the tube and inducing tension on the winding.
