Conveyor system for low-CO ² transport of motor vehicles which has a charging option for electric cars, characterized in that a charging module (6) is located under the conveyor belt (1).

Description

utility model application

Conveyor system for CO ² neutral transport with charging system

Introduction/problem statement

The invention relates to the high CO ² emissions from waiting passenger cars with running petrol/diesel engines standing in a queue. The invention also relates to the loss of energy in passenger cars with electric motors waiting in line.

Description of the state of the art

Rail systems for transporting vehicles are known from the prior art. The disadvantage of this is that these systems have so far only been used in connection with vehicle production (e.g. transport of body shells on assembly lines) and conveyor systems as part of car washes. The possibility of using this to reduce the CO ² emissions of waiting passenger vehicles is new.

No systems are known from the prior art that deal with electromobility. The possibility of supplying voltage to a rail so that a vehicle can store energy is new.

Description of the invention/solution with details

The invention is a new type of system that enables large amounts of CO ² to be saved in road traffic and other areas of motor vehicles.

It describes a belt conveyor system similar to that of a car wash, which allows waiting vehicles to switch off the engine and move around completely emission-free.

It is also possible to supply electric vehicles with energy while waiting. For this purpose, there are modules in the rails, which make this possible, similar to the induction charging of electronic devices.

The versatile area of application would be suitable, for example, for fast-food chains that have a drive-in/drive-through where customer vehicles with running engines have to wait and cause CO ² emissions.

Further areas of application are eg toll stations and border crossings. Especially during the holiday season, there are traffic jams with waiting times of several hours and thus enormous CO ² emissions.

As mentioned above, the system has the option of supplying electric vehicles with electricity. This is becoming increasingly important in view of the poorly developed charging network and the simultaneous increase in the number of electric vehicle registrations. The system offers an elegant solution for loading by using the waiting time.

Example/procedure

• Der Personenkraftwagen wird bei dem Bestellvorgang auf der Fahrschiene platziert. Das Fahrzeug befindet sich nun auf dem Schienensystem. Der Fahrzeugführer kann den Motor abschalten. Der Wagen wird selbständig zu dem Bezahlschalter sowie Abholschalter transportiert. Der Fahrer kann nun Entspannen. Die Lärmbelästigung für Angestellte, Umwelt und Fahrzeuginsassen wird reduziert.
• Das CO² wird über den gesamten Aufenthalt bis zum Verlassen des Drive In/ Drive Through eingespart. Nach erhalt der Bestellung wird der Motor gestartet und das System verlassen. Handelt es sich bei dem Kundenfahrzeug um ein Elektroauto, wird dieses automatisch mit Energie versorgt. Hierfür sind keine weiteren Schritte notwendig.

For example, the system is located in a Drive In/ Drive Through. The following process is conceivable:

• The passenger car is placed on the rail during the ordering process. The vehicle is now on the rail system. The vehicle driver can switch off the engine. The car is transported independently to the payment counter and pick-up counter. The driver can now relax. Noise pollution for employees, the environment and vehicle occupants is reduced.
• The CO ² is saved over the entire stay until leaving the drive in/ drive through. After receiving the order, the engine will be started and the system will exit. If the customer vehicle is an electric car, it is automatically supplied with energy. No further steps are necessary for this.

Construction

• Untergruppe 1: Schienensystem
• Untergruppe 2: Ladesystem

The system consists of several components, which can be divided into two subgroups.

• Subgroup 1: Rail system
• Subgroup 2: Charging system

The rail system consists of a single-track and optionally a two-track conveyor belt. The main component is a plastic or alternatively chain conveyor belt, which is equipped with carrier rollers and a drive motor.

The charging system is a self-contained box. This builds up an electromagnetic field and enables the vehicle battery to be charged. Several boxes are integrated over the entire length of the rail and aligned in the direction of the vehicle. A permanent energy supply is thus possible.
