The invention provides a power generation device including a magnetic conduction member, an induction assembly, and a magnet assembly. The induction assembly includes a magnetic core and a coil wound around the magnetic core. A first end of the magnetic core is connected to the magnetic conduction member. The magnetic conduction member includes a first magnetic conduction sheet and a second magnetic conduction sheet. When a second end of the magnetic core is contacted by the second magnetic conduction sheet, a first magnetic circuit is formed, and a magnetic line of the magnetic core is along a first direction. When the second end of the magnetic core is contacted by the first magnetic conduction sheet, a second magnetic circuit is formed, and a magnetic line of the magnetic core is along a second direction opposite to the first direction.

A power generating device comprises a magnetic core, an induction coil assembly, a first housing, a conductive plate, and a second housing. The induction coil assembly is coupled with the magnetic core, and the magnetic core and the induction assembly are configured in the accommodating space of the first housing. The conductive plate is attracted to the magnetic core. The second housing is configured above the conductive plate. When the second housing receives an external force along an extending direction of the magnetic core, a distance change between the conductive plate and the magnetic core causes a variation of magnetic flux. The induction coil assembly generates a current by sensing the magnetic flux variation.

A non-contact power generator includes: a magnet disposed at a distance to a main surface of a moving body that moves in one direction and the opposite direction, and the magnet generating a magnetic flux passing the main surface; a coil being separated from a surface of the magnet that faces away from the main surface, the coil being linked with the magnetic flux from the magnet; and a magnetic flux guide member disposed in a part of a magnetic path of the magnetic flux linked with the coil. The magnet is moved along the shaft in the moving direction of the moving body at a speed lower than the speed of the moving body by a reaction force acting on the magnet on a basis of eddy currents generated in the main surface in such a direction as to hinder a change of the magnetic flux from the magnet.
