Abstract
The invention provides a generator for a bicycle. The generator has a driving magnet (2) fixed to a wheel of the bicycle and an induction structure which is fixed to the frame of the bicycle. The induction structure comprises an induction magnet (3) which is movably fixed to a coil (4). A fixture allows fixing of the magnets at locations where they, during normal operation of the bicycle, repeatedly moves towards and away from each other so that the driving magnet moves the induction magnet relative to the coil. To provide a generator which can potentially deliver a uniform output which is less dependent on a very specific installation of the generator, on the bicycle and which may therefore be easy to install, the generator further comprises a resetting magnet (5) which provides positioning of the induction magnet relative to the coil when the driving magnet moves away from the induction magnet.
