Abstract
An induction generator (100) is proposed, having at least one permanent magnet (130) for generating a permanent magnetic field (138), at least one reflux plate (106) for guiding the permanent magnetic field (138), a coil (108) and a spring element (104), wherein the permanent magnet (130) and the reflux plate (106) are separated from one another by an air gap (140) through which the permanent magnetic field (138) passes, and wherein the coil (108) is connected to the spring element (104) and is movably disposed in the air gap (140), characterized in that the spring element (104) is designed to cause an oscillation movement of the coil (108) in the air gap (140) transverse to a magnetic flux of the permanent magnetic field (138) inside the air gap (140) in response to a deflection of the coil (108).
