Description

Descrizione di Brevetto per Invenzione Industriale avente per titolo: ?APPARECCHIATURA DI ALIMENTAZIONE ELETTRICA SUPPLEMENTARE, IMPIEGABILE IN PARTICOLARE IN VEICOLI ELETTRICI O SIMILI?. Description of Patent for Industrial Invention entitled: ?ADDITIONAL ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY EQUIPMENT, USABLE IN PARTICULAR IN ELECTRIC VEHICLES OR SIMILAR?.

DESCRIZIONE DESCRIPTION

La presente invenzione si riferisce a un?apparecchiatura di alimentazione elettrica supplementare, impiegabile in particolare in veicoli elettrici o simili. ? noto e sempre pi? diffuso l?impiego di veicoli elettrici, ad esempio autoveicoli, dotati di un motore di propulsione di tipo elettrico collegato ad una o pi? batterie elettriche ricaricabili. The present invention relates to an additional electric power supply apparatus, which can be used in particular in electric vehicles or the like. ? known and increasingly Is the use of electric vehicles widespread, for example motor vehicles, equipped with an electric propulsion motor connected to one or more? rechargeable electric batteries.

Sono noti, inoltre, i veicoli cosiddetti ?ibridi? che affiancano all?impiego di un motore elettrico un ulteriore motore a combustione interna. Are the so-called ?hybrid? vehicles also known? which combine the use of an electric motor with an additional internal combustion engine.

In particolare, i veicoli elettrici cosiddetti ?extended range?, ovvero ad ?autonomia estesa?, utilizzano un sistema di propulsione costituito da un motore elettrico collegato ad una o pi? batterie elettriche, in cui la ricarica delle batterie pu? essere effettuata, oltre che mediante il convenzionale collegamento ad una linea di alimentazione esterna, mediante un opportuno motore a combustione installato sul veicolo stesso. In particular, the so-called ?extended range? electric vehicles, i.e. with ?extended autonomy?, use a propulsion system consisting of an electric motor connected to one or more electric batteries, in which the recharging of the batteries can? be carried out, in addition to the conventional connection to an external supply line, by means of a suitable combustion engine installed on the vehicle itself.

L?impiego del motore a combustione per la ricarica delle batterie consente di incrementare in modo considerevole l?autonomia di percorrenza del veicolo, generalmente limitata nel caso di veicoli esclusivamente elettrici. The use of the combustion engine to recharge the batteries makes it possible to considerably increase the range of travel of the vehicle, which is generally limited in the case of exclusively electric vehicles.

In particolare, i veicoli elettrici ad autonomia estesa comprendono un motore elettrico di propulsione del veicolo, una o pi? batterie elettriche collegate al motore elettrico, un motore a combustione, un serbatoio di combustibile collegato al motore a combustione ed un generatore elettrico accoppiato al motore a combustione e collegato alla batteria elettrica. In particular, extended range electric vehicles include an electric propulsion motor for the vehicle, one or more electric batteries connected to the electric motor, a combustion engine, a fuel tank connected to the combustion engine and an electric generator coupled to the combustion engine and connected to the electric battery.

Il generatore elettrico o accumulatore ? atto a convertire l?energia meccanica generata dal motore a combustione in energia elettrica per la ricarica della batteria. The electric generator or accumulator? suitable for converting the mechanical energy generated by the combustion engine into electrical energy for recharging the battery.

Le soluzioni di tipo noto presentano, tuttavia, alcuni inconvenienti. The solutions of the known type have, however, some drawbacks.

In particolare, il motore a combustione ed il generatore elettrico necessitano di un apposito vano di alloggiamento ed hanno in genere dimensioni tutt?altro che trascurabili oltre che un elevato peso. In particular, the combustion engine and the electric generator require a suitable housing compartment and generally have far from negligible dimensions as well as a high weight.

Questo comporta inevitabilmente la necessit? di prevedere, progettare e realizzare un apposito spazio all?interno del veicolo atto ad alloggiare il gruppo costituito dal motore a combustione e dal generatore elettrico. This inevitably leads to the need to provide, design and build a special space inside the vehicle suitable for housing the group consisting of the combustion engine and the electric generator.

Inoltre, ne consegue un?inevitabile riduzione degli spazi a disposizione degli utilizzatori all?interno del veicolo, ad esempio all?interno del portabagagli. Il compito principale della presente invenzione ? quello di escogitare un?apparecchiatura di alimentazione elettrica supplementare, impiegabile in particolare in veicoli elettrici o simili, che abbia ingombro e peso contenuti rispetto alle soluzioni di tipo noto. Furthermore, there follows an inevitable reduction of the spaces available to users inside the vehicle, for example inside the luggage compartment.

L?apparecchiatura 1 comprende almeno un motore a combustione 3 e almeno un generatore elettrico 4 operativamente collegato al motore a combustione 3 e atto a generare energia elettrica a partire dall?energia meccanica prodotta dal motore a combustione stesso.

In altre parole, l?albero motore 8 ? associato direttamente al rotore 10 del generatore elettrico 4 e trasferisce il moto di rotazione direttamente ad esso. Tale accorgimento permette di ridurre il numero di componenti dell?apparecchiatura 1. In other words, the? crankshaft 8 ? associated directly with the rotor 10 of the electric generator 4 and transferring the rotational motion directly to it. This arrangement allows to reduce the number of components of the equipment 1.

In questo modo, l?apparecchiatura 1 ha un ingombro considerevolmente contenuto rispetto alle soluzioni di tipo noto, ed ? quindi installabile all?interno di uno spazio contenuto su di un veicolo elettrico 2. In this way, the apparatus 1 has a considerably reduced size compared to solutions of the known type, and is therefore it can be installed inside a small space on an electric vehicle 2.

Ad esempio, l?apparecchiatura 1 pu? essere semplicemente e rapidamente installata all?interno di un veicolo elettrico 2 convenzionale, ad esempio in corrispondenza del vano destinato alla ruota di scorta o all?interno del portabagagli del veicolo stesso.

In particolare, il motore a combustione 3 ? del tipo di un motore a cilindri contrapposti. In particular, the combustion engine 3 ? of the type of an opposed cylinder engine.

Nella forma di attuazione mostrata nelle figure il corpo motore 5 comprende una coppia di cilindri 6. In the embodiment shown in the figures, the motor body 5 comprises a pair of cylinders 6.

Il motore a combustione 3 comprende due pistoni 7, ciascuno inserito scorrevole all?interno di un relativo cilindro 6. The combustion engine 3 comprises two pistons 7, each inserted sliding inside a relative cylinder 6.

I pistoni 7 sono operativamente collegati alla prima estremit? 8a dell?albero motore 8 e, a seguito del processo di combustione, inducono una rotazione dell?albero motore stesso. Are the pistons 7 operatively connected to the first end? 8a of the drive shaft 8 and, following the combustion process, cause rotation of the drive shaft itself.

I cilindri 6 si estendono dal corpo motore 5 lungo rispettive direzioni tra loro sostanzialmente contrapposte. The cylinders 6 extend from the motor body 5 along respective substantially opposite directions.

Con riferimento alla particolare e preferita forma di attuazione dell?apparecchiatura 1 illustrata nelle figure, i due cilindri 6 si estendono da porzioni opposte del corpo motore 5 lungo direzioni tra loro parallele e complanari. With reference to the particular and preferred embodiment of the apparatus 1 illustrated in the figures, the two cylinders 6 extend from opposite portions of the motor body 5 along mutually parallel and coplanar directions.

L?albero motore 8 si sviluppa lungo un relativo asse longitudinale A ed ? disposto sostanzialmente ortogonale rispetto ai cilindri 6. The driving shaft 8 develops along a relative longitudinal axis A and ? arranged substantially orthogonal to the cylinders 6.

Vantaggiosamente, gli assi longitudinali dei cilindri 6 e l?asse longitudinale A dell?albero motore 8 sono tra loro sostanzialmente complanari. Advantageously, the longitudinal axes of the cylinders 6 and the longitudinal axis A of the driving shaft 8 are substantially coplanar with each other.

Il corpo motore 5 ? atto ad indurre un moto di rotazione all?albero motore 8 avente un regime di rotazione fisso compreso tra 3500 e 4500 giri/min. Preferibilmente, il corpo motore 5 ? atto ad indurre un moto di rotazione all?albero motore 8 avente un regime di rotazione fisso pari a 4000 giri/min.

Preferably, the motor body 5 ? suitable for inducing a rotation motion to the motor shaft 8 having a fixed rotation speed equal to 4000 rpm. This rotation frequency allows to obtain the maximum efficiency of electric current generation by the electric generator 4.

Utilmente, l?apparecchiatura 1 comprende mezzi di avviamento del motore a combustione 3 atti ad iniziare il moto del motore a combustione stesso. I mezzi di avviamento consentono di vincere l?inerzia iniziale dovuta alle forze di attrito interne al motore a combustione 3 e di porre in movimento l?albero motore 8 e, conseguentemente, i pistoni 7. Conveniently, the apparatus 1 comprises starting means for the combustion engine 3 suitable for starting the motion of the combustion engine itself. The starting means allow to overcome the initial inertia due to the internal friction forces of the combustion engine 3 and to set in motion the driving shaft 8 and, consequently, the pistons 7.

In sostanza, il generatore elettrico 4 ? ulteriormente atto ad avviare il motore a combustione 3 quando quest?ultimo risulta disattivato. Basically, the electric generator 4 ? further suitable for starting the combustion engine 3 when the latter is deactivated.

Pi? in dettaglio, il generatore elettrico 4 sfrutta parte dell?energia elettrica della batteria elettrica 11 del veicolo elettrico 2 per indurre la rotazione del rotore 10 e conseguentemente dell?albero motore 8. Pi? in detail, the electric generator 4 exploits part of the electric energy of the electric battery 11 of the electric vehicle 2 to induce the rotation of the rotor 10 and consequently of the driving shaft 8.

Along the supply ducts 14, in correspondence with the inlet to the relative cylinders 6, the mixing of the combustible fluid / combustion fluid takes place, which allows the subsequent combustion.

Vantaggiosamente, la camera di plenum 13 ? realizzata in almeno un materiale plastico. Advantageously, the plenum chamber 13 is made of at least one plastic material.

Analogamente a quanto sostenuto per la camera di plenum 13, la presenza di un corpo a coppa 18 in materiale plastico permette di contenere notevolmente il peso del sistema di lubrificazione 17 e dell?intera apparecchiatura 1. Similarly to what was claimed for the plenum chamber 13, the presence of a cup-shaped body 18 made of plastic material allows the weight of the lubrication system 17 and of the entire apparatus 1 to be considerably reduced.
