Description

2340318 Battery Recharging Station for Electrically Powered Boats This
invention relates to a battery recharging station for electrically powered boats.
In environmentally sensitive areas containing water on which leisure boats are used, it is to be increasingly expected that the only powered boats permitted will be electrically powered. Electrically powered boats do, however, require relatively frequent recharging of the on-board batteries. A network of land based recharging sites drawing on mains electricity is difficult and very expensive to set up and a less expensive and simpler system for recharging electrically powered boats would be desirable.
According to the invention, there is provided a battery recharging station for electrically powered boats, comprising a pontoon adapted to be moored at a recharging site, a solar panel unit and a wind powered generator mounted on the pontoon, a battery bank on the pontoon, the batteries of which are maintained charged by the solar panel unit and wind powered generator, and at least one point on the pontoon connected to the battery bank and adapted to reeive a cable through which batteries on board an electric boat can be recharged.
"Me wind powered generator may conveniently be mounted on top of the solar panel unit, itself preferably mounted on a housing accommodating the battery bank.
The power supply assembly of the wind powered generator, the solar panel unit and the battery bank may be carried by the pontoon at a central position thereon, one or more meter points being provided adjacent the periphery of the pontoon. Typically four such meter points may be provided, one near each comer of the pomoon, adjacent a mooring fitment for a boat which is to use the adjacent meter point.
The or each meter point may be adapted to use a chargecard payment system.
A network of the aforeaid pontoons may be set up and operated substantially more easily and less expensively than a network of land recharging stations.
Moreover, a pontoon may readily be moved if it becomes necessary or desirable to resite a recharging station. Additionally, each pontoon generates its own electricity to keep the battery bank charged, and the operator of the pontoon does not have to purchase electricity from a mains supplier.
The invention is ftirther described with reference to the accompanying drawing, the single figure of which shows a pontoon in diagrammatic perspective view.
Referring to the drawing, a floating pontoon 10, conveniently of steel or fibreglass is moored in a free water space to constitute a recharging station for an electrically powered boat.
Near its centre, the pontoon supports a housing 12 containing a bank of batteries and, for keeping said batteries in charged condition, a solar panel 14 on top of the housing surmounted by a wind powered generator 16. The pontoon is moored so that at least some of the panels of the solar panel unit always face towards the sun, and for this purpose the panels are angled to face upwards around a semi-circular arc.
Located adjacent the four comers of the pontoon 10 are four meter points 18 supplied with power from the battery bank. Each meter point has a connector 20 for attachment of a cable through which batteries on board a boat may be recharged, and a slot 22 for enabling payment by chargecard.
The pontoon is provided with comer buffers 24 and mooring fitment 26 adjacent the buffers to enable mooring of a boat during recharging of its batteries.
In a water-containing sensitive environment in which only the use of electrically powered leisure craft is permitted, a network of the abovedescribed pontoons can easily and inexpensively be set up to service electrically powered boats, and it may sometimes be convenient to provide other additional services on board the pontoon.
