DESCRIPTION

WIND ENERGY RECOVERY ELECTRIC VEHICLE

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The wind electric vehicle object of the present invention uses the wind energy obtained by the tires in the form of propellers to capture the wind energy and transform it into electrical energy, charging the batteries and thus increasing the km of autonomy of the conventional electric vehicle, using renewable electrical energy. obtained by the use of wind energy.

The maximum range of an electric vehicle with electric charging from a home network or a public network connection is approximately 270 km. Once it has traveled those 270 km, the vehicle has to stop to charge the battery or, if it is a mixed vehicle, continue running on diesel or gasoline like the usual thermal vehicles.

This new wind electric vehicle transforms conventional tires into wind turbines, which transform the force of the wind into kinetic energy and transmit it through a horizontal axis to an alternator.

A wind turbine converts wind energy into electricity using the aerodynamic force of the turbine blades. When wind flows through the blade, the air pressure on one side of the blade decreases. The difference in air pressure across the two sides of the blade creates lift and drag. The lift force is stronger than the drag and this causes the rotor to rotate. The rotor connects to the generator and a series of gears speed up the rotation and allow for a physically smaller generator.

The tires transformed into wind turbines collect the air or wind produced by the vehicle when the wheels are in motion. This kinetic energy goes directly to an alternator that obtains the electrical energy that is stored in the batteries, to later transform said electrical energy into mechanical energy. capable of moving the vehicle. This achieves almost 100% electrical autonomy, since the alternator charges the battery continuously.

The wind turbine is a main component of this invention, it is a turbine connected to an alternator to obtain electrical energy. A wind turbine is a rotating shaft that transforms the mechanical energy of the wind into electrical energy using an alternator.

Wind energy is a source of renewable energy that is generated by the force of the wind. In this invention, this force of the wind is used to transform it into mechanical energy thanks to the rotation caused by the wind in the wind propellers of the vehicle's tires.

This mechanical energy from wind is then converted into electrical energy by means of an alternator.

As can be seen in the drawings, the vehicle's tires are converted into wind turbines as their spokes have adopted the shape of propellers, whose blades collect the force of the wind that the alternator transforms into electricity. The wind turbine is a motor turbomachine that takes advantage of the energy of a flow, in this case the wind, that passes through the blades of the propellers, thus producing the rotation of the turbine whose axis transfers the rotation to a horizontal rotor that before reaching the alternator multiplies the torque through a multiplier until reaching 6,000 revolutions/minute, this being the torque that reaches the alternator which transforms said mechanical energy into electrical energy by accumulating it in the batteries.

In this way, the wind energy system of this invention complements the electrical system of the vehicle, being capable of achieving guaranteed efficient overall work, a greater electrical generation capacity while the vehicle is in motion by complementing the electrical system with a load of wind origin, thus increasing the km of the vehicle's range by increasing the battery charge.

The present invention refers to a vehicle that generates electrical energy by modifying the tires that transmit the force of the wind to an alternator that accumulates it in the battery, presenting notable technical characteristics that make it novel and advantageous over other similar vehicles.

Basic elements of the wind and electric vehicle object of this invention:

1. New design of the wheels and rims in the form of wind turbines of the vehicle

When the car is in motion, it absorbs the force of the wind and transforms it into mechanical energy, thanks to the movement of the vehicle's wheels. The new design of the vehicle's wheel turns a wind turbine that transforms this mechanical energy into electrical energy thanks to to an alternator.

2. Horizontal rotors

The rotational movement of the axle of the wheels converted into three-bladed propellers is transmitted to the horizontal rotor and by a torque multiplier that takes the multiplied rotation to the alternator and from there electrical energy is obtained. There are therefore four rotors, one for each wheel, that generate electricity.

3. Torque multiplier that multiplies the rotor revolutions

4. Alternator that transforms mechanical energy of wind origin into electricity.

5. Regulator that adjusts the voltage generated by the alternator to a constant voltage by opening and closing points.

6. Batteries that accumulate the electricity generated by the alternator

The industrial application of this invention is within the electric vehicle sector, and more specifically, hybrid vehicles that consume both electric and wind energy.
