Abstract

A battery powered electric motor car, or motorcycle, has an electric traction motor 3 powered by batteries 6 which are recharged by alternators (7, Fig.2) driven by any rotating part of the vehicle. In a motor car, the electric motor 3 may drive rear wheels via a clutch 4, gearbox 5, propshaft 10 and differential 11. A 72 volt motor 3 may be powered by six 12 volt batteries, pairs of which are charged by respective ones of three alternators (7) driven from the propshaft 10 via V-belts (9) and pulleys (8, 13).

Description

This invention relates to self charging electric towered vehicles Electric vehicles are being looked at now to provide a cleaner and more efficient form of transport than normal petrol or diesel intemal combustion engined vehicles.Electric vehicles,however,are limited in range due to the need to recharge the batteries frequently after use as they have no in transit charge.
According to the present invention the electric vehicle is propelled by an electric motor which is powered by a number of twelve volt heavy duty batteries. In this case a seventy two volt motor powered by six twelve volt heavy duty batteries.The motor is placed in the normal position of the driveline so as it may be driven as normal using a dutch and gearbox.The motor ,in this case, though is recharged during it's operation by three twenty four volt alternators connected to the propshaft by belts anhd pulleys.As the vehicle is moving the propshaft must tum and this in tum powers the belts which rotate the alternators which recharge the batteries which are connected in the manner of two twelve volt batteries to one twenty four volt alternator.
A specific embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawing in which: Fig 1.) Illustrates the vehicle with motor, batteries and charging system in place,which includes altemators,belts and pulleys.
Fig 2.) Illustrates in more detail the pulleys on the propshaft powering the altemators by means of a standard 'v' pulley belt.The propshaft being connected to the differential on the rear axle to drive the vehicle as normal.
Referring to the drawing,the vehicle comprises of a seventy two volt motor 3 connected to the clutch assembly 4 through to the gearbox 5.The propshaft 10 has 'v' pulleys 13 fixed to it so as they rotate with it,these are connected by 'v' belts 9 to the pulleys 8 which are fixed to the three alternators 7.The propshaft 10 connects to the differential 11 on the rear axle 14 to drive the vehicle as normal.

Claims (4)

1.) A self charging electric powered vehicle comprising a standard bodied,steel
chassied vehicle,an electric motor powered by batteries connected to alternators which are driven by v belts which are in turn driven by the propshafl.
2.) A self charging electric powered vehicle as in claim 1 or claim 2 wherein the vehicle is any self charging electrically motorized car or bike.
3.) A self charging electric powered vehicle as in claim 2 or claim 3 wherein alternators are driven by any rotating part of the vehicle.
4.) A self charging electrically powered vehicle as claimed in claim claim 2 and claim 4 wherein it is powered by any voltage size electric motor.
