Abstract
The invention relates to an electricity generator having recovery of mechanical vibration energy, including a bistable system suitable for adopting one stable position or another relative to two ends in response to being energized in a predetermined direction (FEXT); at least one monostable oscillating system suitable for periodically engaging with at least one of the two ends, in response to said energizing; and a device for converting the movement of the element of the bistable system into electric power.
