Description

Title: Solar plate holder device for cars

Application domain :

The present invention relates to a device for carrying photovoltaic panels to be fixed on the roofs or hoods of electric cars, cars with thermal engines, hybrid cars, or racing cars for the “World Solar Challenge” for example,

Prior art:

Several advanced solutions and techniques are used in the new generations of solar cars to cover, with photovoltaic cells and chips, the maximum amount of space available on the car body, windshields and windows,

But to manufacture a solar racing car for the World Solar Challenge, for example, or to transform a classic thermal engine cars into solar cars, it is necessary to use a large number of photovoltaic plates by widening the body of the car to ensure the proper operation of the latter and charge its batteries,

It is known that the invention CN203410313U "Vehicle with a telescopic or foldable solar panel", using solar panels which extend and contract, lengthen and shorten, while the Solar plate holder device for cars object of my invention differs of this, I limit myself to showing that the solar plates in my invention rotate at least around a vertical axis and describe a circular motion by bending and folding, It is also known that the invention CN204526816U "Mobile solar energy", the technique used in this invention differs from that used in my invention, since it consists roughly of a housing with cover, three or more solar panels, a battery and cables, and it opens and closes like a book,

And we also know that solar “smartflawers” are intelligent devices made up of rotating petals, mounted on frames, designed to supply homes with electricity, and not to supply cars and vehicles in general,

Solar plate carrier device for cars object of the invention in addition to its production of clean energy, has other advantages we are limited to the following:

- Is a portable safe carrying batteries and solar plates arranged one on top of the other, ready to spread out, easy to dismantle and to assemble on all types of vehicles, and occupies a fraction of the surface covered by the solar plates in spread position,

- Allows the use of a plurality of solar panels to convert solar energy into electrical energy and arrange them in a safe after charging the batteries, or to enter the car in a garage, or by car crossing a passage narrow..,

- Guarantee a reduction in the body of the car, and subsequently the resistance of the air when moving the car, which leads to a reduction in energy consumed on the road: in the case of racing cars the "World Solar Challenge " for example,

- In addition, the unfolded and spread solar panels form a shelter on the roof of the car parked in full sun, BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The subject of the invention is a device for carrying solar panels for cars, comprising a box equipped with a plurality of rotating solar panels, resistant to air dynamics, converting solar energy into electricity when the car is stationary. and when moving on roads, said box is provided with means of fixing on roofs or on car hoods and equipped with all the means and electrical elements ensuring the correct operation of the electrical installation, Unfolding and folding of the photovoltaic panels swivel, are provided by a two-way drive motor incorporated in said box:

- In one direction of the drive motor, the plates free to rotate, pull in a chain by the plate coupled to the shaft of the drive motor, unfolding at the exit of the box one after the other and covering the roof or hood of the car,

- In the other direction of said motor, the plates bend in a chain, pushed by the plate coupled to the drive motor shaft and are installed together in their housing arranged in said box, the pivoting solar plates come out the one after the other at least on one side of said trunk, and are spread over the roof of the car to convert solar energy into electricity which accumulates in rechargeable batteries incorporated in said trunk holder solar plates or in the trunk of the car, and when arranged or folded, said pivoting solar plates are arranged one on top of the other in said trunk holder solar plates, mounted and fixed on the top of the car, on the roof or on the hoods , BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The object of the invention is a device for carrying solar panels for cars, comprising a box (1) in which is mounted a plurality of pivoting photovoltaic panels (2) resistant to the dynamics of the air, converting solar energy into electricity at stopping the car and moving it on roads, said box (l) is provided with means of fixing (5) on roofs or on car hoods, equipped with rechargeable batteries (14) and all electrical means and equipment ensuring the correct functioning of the electrical installation, and a box (9) containing command, control and connection devices,

Said photovoltaic plates (2) pivot around an axis (4) coupled to the drive motor (3), the latter drives in one direction one of the pivoting plates (13) in this embodiment which drags with it the others. plates, one after the other, forming an arc of a circle when they are unfolded. By reversing the direction of said drive motor, the plate (13) pushes the plates one after the other until the complete entry of all the plates in the box (1):

In one direction of the drive motor (3), the series of plates (2) unfold and come out of the boot one after the other, covering the roof or hood of the car,

In the other direction of said motor (3), the series of plates (2) fold and are installed one on the other in their housing arranged in the trunk (1),

The device implementing the invention is mounted on any motor vehicle, Said box (1) is provided with means for fixing to roofs or hoods of cars (5), equipped with a plurality of pivoting photovoltaic plates (2) , brushes (10) removing dust from solar panels fixed on a low side of each of the plates except the plate (13) in this mode of realization, each of these brushes (10) sweeps the face of the plate from below, another brush is attached to the internal face of the back / top of the trunk (12) and sweeps the face of the first plate from the top,

According to various characteristics of the invention, the solar plate carrier device for cars comprises a box (1) in which is mounted a plurality of pivoting photovoltaic plates (2) which fold up and fold under the action of the motor (3) in two direction of travel, two cases are considered:
