A robot device includes a first link and a second link coupled to the first link via an elbow. One or more of the first link or the second link rotates about an axis of the elbow. The robot device further includes a generator disposed in the elbow. The generator is configured to generate electrical power based on relative angular mechanical movement associated with the elbow. The robot device further includes an end effector configured to transport a substrate within a substrate processing system. The end effector is disposed at a distal end of the second link. The end effector is to receive the electrical power generated by the generator.

A timepiece and method for mounting a generator in the timepiece, this generator being formed of a rotor with permanent magnets and two coils. A supporting structure is preassembled with the rotor and an electronic module including the two coils is preformed. The method includes the following successive steps for laterally mounting the electronic module in the supporting structure so as to form the generator; assembly of an electronic module support with the supporting structure to form an articulation; rotation of the electronic module thanks to the articulation to bring the two coils closer to the axis of rotation of the rotor, so that these two coils are finally each located in a functional position at the same distance from the axis of rotation of the rotor; fastening of the electronic module to block the articulation after said rotation and thus maintain this electronic module in a functional angular position.

An electric potential energy (EPE) generator having a throughput shaft and an electrical energy generating rotor assembly. The EPE generator generates electrical energy through the electric potential energy stored within a mechanical system serving a primary mechanical purpose. The mechanical energy has a primary function for the system, while secondarily driving the EPE generator; mechanical energy is not lost in a direct amount to the production of electrical energy. The EPE generator has the capability to generate electrical energy at all states of the system, given that the mechanical rotation is provided; the EPE generator is not limited to operation dependent of mechanical energy transferring either in or out of the system.
