an on - road energy conversion and vibration absorber apparatus receives the kinetic energy from moving vehicles and pedestrians when being weighed down , and converts the received kinetic energy into a potential energy using a restorable elastic element compressing a fluid thereby storing the potential energy in a pressure chamber , and then conducting the pressurized fluid to pass though a check valve along a conduit and drive a vane wheel by releasing its potential energy . the vane wheel in turn drives a generator to generate electric energy , and the vibration of the vehicles is alleviated by cushion effect provided by the apparatus .
