[Industrial applications]

 An object of the present invention is to provide a traveling vehicle having a wind turbine generator that can be used as an electric power source in a vehicle by generating electric power by using wind force relatively generated when an automobile or the like travels.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In recent years, as the automobile industry has intensified competition, automobiles are becoming more multifunctional. For example, the number of electric appliances such as televisions and water heaters installed inside automobiles has increased.

In particular, for automobiles such as trucks and buses that are often used for a long time, various electric appliances other than the above-mentioned electric appliances are provided in the vehicle so that passengers and drivers can drive comfortably. There are many.

Since the above-mentioned multi-functional automobile has many kinds and a large number of electric appliances installed in the automobile and consumes a large amount of electric power, the conventional automobile battery cannot supplement all the electric power. It was a thing. Therefore, a large battery is mounted on the vehicle to supply electric power.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, increasing the size of the battery as described above not only required a wide mounting space, but also increased the total weight of the vehicle and at the same time increased costs.

An object of the present invention is to provide a traveling vehicle having a wind turbine generator capable of solving the above problems.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In the present invention, a propeller that is rotated by wind force and a generator connected to the propeller are mounted on the upper part of the cab of the traveling vehicle, and the propeller and the generator are provided outside the propeller and the generator. (EN) Provided is a traveling vehicle having a wind power generation device, which is provided with a casing for covering, and further has a wind intake port opened at a front side surface portion of the casing and a wind discharge port opened at a rear side surface portion thereof. It is a thing.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an overall view of a traveling vehicle having a wind turbine generator of the present invention.

In this embodiment, an example in which the wind turbine generator B is mounted is shown when the traveling vehicle A is a truck.

First, the casing 2 of the wind turbine generator B is placed on the upper part 1 of the body of the cab A1 at the front of the truck, and inside the casing 2, the propeller 3 and the generator 4 are installed. Has been.

As shown in FIG. 2, the shape of the casing 2 is a polyhedron shape having a rectangular cross section, and a rectangular wind intake port 5 is opened on the front surface of the casing 2 in the front direction of the automobile A. A wind outlet 6 is opened in the rear side surface.

Further, a mounting base 7 for adjusting the height of the casing 2 and fixing the casing 2 to the upper portion of the vehicle A is provided on the bottom surface of the casing 2.

As described above, with the above structure, the wind relatively generated by the traveling of the vehicle enters the inside of the casing 2 through the intake port 5 and passes through the exhaust port 6. In this case, the wind speed taken in is determined by the running speed of the vehicle and the actual wind speed, but it is necessary to take in winds with a wind speed of 70 km / hr or more to supply sufficient power.

Then, the propeller 3 is rotated by the wind blown into the casing 2, and the generator 4 connected to the propeller 3 is driven to generate electric power.

The propeller 3 and the generator 4 are connected by a rotary shaft 8, and the coaxial 8 is arranged in the front-rear direction of the traveling vehicle A so that the rotation of the propeller 3 is transmitted to the motor of the generator 4 and the motor 4 is rotated. Is to rotate.

Further, the generator 4 is installed in an electric appliance or the like installed inside or outside the body of the traveling vehicle A, for example, an illuminated signboard used for the interior or exterior of the vehicle body, an illuminated light, or the like. It is directly connected to a television, a water heater, etc., and is configured to supply electric power.

In the traveling vehicle A having the wind power generator of the present invention having the above-described configuration, electric power is generated by using the wind force relatively generated as the vehicle A travels, so that an electric appliance or the like can be installed in the vehicle. Even when it is installed and has multiple functions, it is possible to supply sufficient electric power to these electric appliances and the like.

Moreover, the energy consumed as fuel is the same as the conventional one, and it is not necessary to make the engine, battery, etc. large.

As another embodiment of the wind turbine generator, as shown in FIG. 3, a guide 8 is provided on the side surface inside the casing 2 so that the propeller 3 is located in the direction from the wind inlet 5 to the wind inlet 5. The structure may be such that the wind passage is gradually narrowed so that the wind easily collects on the propeller 3.

Further, a lid which can be opened and closed is attached to the intake port 5 of the casing 2, and the lid is closed to prevent wind from entering the casing 2 when it is not necessary to use the generator. Good.

[0021]

[Effect of device]

 In the present invention, a propeller that is rotated by wind force and a generator connected to the propeller are mounted on the upper part of the cab of the traveling vehicle, and the propeller and the generator are provided outside the propeller and the generator. Since it is a traveling vehicle that has a casing that covers it and also has a wind power generator with a wind inlet opening on the front side surface and a wind outlet on the rear side surface, Electricity can be generated by using the wind force that is generated as a power source to generate electric power and supplement the electric power inside the vehicle without using fuel.

Further, since it is not necessary to make the battery, engine, etc. large, there is no problem of causing noise and vibration.

Further, it is possible to sufficiently supply electric power to traveling vehicles such as buses and trucks that consume a large amount of electric power, while preventing waste of energy.
