Schematic review: piezo harvester/ultrasonic transmitter

Hi,

I'm trying to build a project where I am trying to power a ultrasonic transmitter from a piezo element. Can someone take a look at my design and see if there are any issues/will work?

Two piezo elements will be connected, one to the rectifier and the other to the harvester IC. There should be a built in threshold on the IC that discharges when the voltge reched 3.6V.

Which ICs are you using?
What is the proposed use for that bridge rectifier?
The bridge rectifier is short-circuited.
Please give all your components designators so the we can refer to them.

The harvester IC is LTC3588EDD-1#PBF
I am using BAT43W diodes for the rectifier, its supposed to rectify the voltage generated by a second piezo that in addition to the one attached to the IC


I'm using the NE555 for the 555 timer
