Abstract

In a vehicle with an electric motor 17 and Na-S batteries 12, 19, 20, battery charging can be effected by axle-mounted alternators 5, 6 located adjacent each of the four wheels 10 of the vehicle and by two pairs of windmill-type alternators (21, 22, Fig. 3) located at the front and rear of the vehicle. The alternators are connected to rectifier assemblies 11 and a rectifier selector switch 13. A speedometer operated switch 18 connects batteries 19, 20 in series with battery 12 when extra battery power is required for slow/uphill movement, the batteries 19, 20 being charged during fast running.

Description

PROPULSION AC\DC CONTINUOUS CHARGE ASSEMBLY This invention relates to the generation of AC\DC electric currents by propulsion wind power which augments propulsion power to the extent of maintaining a continuous battery charge and sustaining the running of a motor.
The concept of energy transformation is well known and established. Conversion of mechanical energy to electric energy is envisaged in the generation of hydroelectric power.This is shown more recently in electric power generation from the movement of waves and wind.Wheel propulsion movement has progressed from horse power to steam to fuel combustion.
Wind power generator systems,encompassing wind/diesel/battery are widely studied.
To day research work on electric vehicles is concentrating on their operation on battery or hybrid base.The main focus is on maintaining a charged battery and electric drive systems where various hybrid forms of power are being tested.
According to the present invention there is provided a propulsion AC\DC continuous charge assembly comprising a frame-axil alternator behind each of the four wheels of a vehicle in the form of a magnet (rotor) fitted to the rotating axil, a stator fixed to the axil frame,two sets of two windmill type fan/alternator,a rectifier, three Na-S batteries and a motor; gear and pulley alternative means of conveying wind power.
Referring to the drawings (Figures 1 -6 ) the propulsion AC\DC continuous charge assembly comprises a magnet (rotor) 5 fitted to the rotating front and rear axils 9 behind each of the four wheels 10 of a vehicle, in each case within a stator 6 fixed to the axil frame 8,stator and magnet protected by a casing 7.The four alternators are connected to a diode rectifier Fig.2,11 of four 9-diode each including three auxilliary diodes Fig.6 14,and connected to a Na-S battery 12 and motor 17; a rectifier selector switch 13,electronic relay 16 and 'ignition' switch 15 provided.Two sets of two (front and rear) windmill type fan Fig.3 21/alternator 22 are connected to the rectifier 11, Na-S batteries 19 and 20,and motor 17.A speedometer operated switch 18 placed between battery 12 and batteries 19 and 20,the three batteries connected in series;two alternative means : gear Fig.4 23,24 and pulley Fig.5 25,26,27 of conveying wind power.
On turning the'ignition'switch 15,the self-excited alternators pass some of the output current to the field winding producing a magnetic field in the winding sufficient to triger the build up of alternator output.As the vehicle moves AC current is generated, rectified to DC and stored in the batteries connected in series. The speedometer operated switch 18 connects and disconnects battery 12 from batteries 19 and 20 on slow/uphill movement and smooth fast running respectively. On fast running wind power generated DC charges batteries 19 and 20 which then act periodically as storage batteries,but provide the critically required power balance on slow/uphill movement. In total, sufficient DC current is generated to maintain battery charge and sustain a running motor 17. An electronic relay 16 with a pair of open contacts, connected to the rotor field circuit connects and disconnects the rotor field winding according to the on-andoff'ignition'switch 15 respectively. The gear is preferred to pulley as alternatives to increase the turning speed of the rotor.
