System for charging electrical devices using a solar cell band

Abstract

A system for charging electrical devices using a solar cell band comprising a band assembly and a solar pad assembly. The band assembly comprises of a band having a charging port and wires therein. The charging port allows a user to charge an electronic device such as a smartwatch, phone, and the like. Additionally, the wires create a connection with the charging port and the solar pad assembly. The solar pad assembly includes a solar pad and solar cells. The solar pad and the solar cells are located on the band and is configured to gather solar energy and convert it to electrical energy. The electrical energy is then stored in a battery located on the band.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

(4) Referring now to the drawings, where the present invention is generally referred to with numeral 10, it can be observed a system for charging electrical devices using a solar cell band 10 that basically includes a band assembly 20 and a solar bad assembly 40.

(5) Band assembly 20 includes a band 21 having a first end 21A and a second end 21B. Band 21 may be made of any suitable material such as rubber, leather, and the like. Additionally, first end 21A and second end 21B may be circular in shape. However, It should be understood that additional embodiments of the present invention may include bands made of other suitable materials for wrists and other designs for first end 21A and second end 21B. Band 21 further includes a charging port 22 and wires 24. Charging port 22 is located on second end 21B of band 21. Charging port 22 may be of any suitable port hardware for charging an electronic device such as a USB port, micro USB port, and the like. Charging port 22 is adapted to receive a charging cable such as a USB cable, micro USB cable and the like. The cable is then plugged into an electronic device to be charged by system for charging electronic devices using a solar cell band 10. Additionally, solar cell band 10 may send and receive data through the USB port. Wires 24 communicably connect charging port 22 to a battery 26 located on band 24. In one embodiment of the present invention, wires 24 are made of a copper or gold material. However, it should be understood that wires 24 may be made of any suitable material for the transfer of electrical energy. In another embodiment of the present invention, battery 26 is circular in shape. However, battery 26 may be of any suitable shape to being attached to band 21. Band 21 further includes holes 28 for receiving a protrusion 29 for securely mounting band 21 to a user's wrist, arm or leg. Protrusion 29 may be located on first end 21A of band 21. Although the present embodiment depicts holes 28 and protrusion 29 as a method for securely mounting band 21 to a user's wrist, arm, or leg any suitable mounting mechanism may be used to attach band 21 to a user's wrist, arm or leg. In another embodiment of the present invention, system for charging electronic devices using a solar cell band 10 may be configured to transform heat energy from a user's movement into additional electrical energy to be stored in battery 26.

(6) Solar pad assembly 40 includes a solar pad 42 and solar cells 44. Solar pad 42 may be located on the center of band 21 and may be circular in shape. Solar pad 42 is a hardware component mounted onto band assembly 20 configured to transform solar energy gathered from a light source, to electrical energy. The electrical energy converted from solar pad 22 is stored in battery 26. It should be understood that solar pad 42 may be of any suitable shape and location to be mounted on band 21. The present embodiment depicts solar pad 42 being circular in shape and mounted on top of battery 26. Solar cells 44 are located on the outer surface band 21. The present embodiment depicts solar cells 44 being on one side of band 21. However, it should be understood that other embodiments include solar cells 44 located on other suitable areas of band 21. Solar cells 44 are hardware components mounted onto band 20 assembly 20 and configured to transform solar energy gathered from a light source to electrical energy. In one embodiment of the present invention solar cells 44 may be perovskite solar cells. However, it should be understood that any form of solar cells may be used for solar cells 44. The electrical energy converted from solar cells 44 is then stored in battery 26. A user may then utilize electrical energy stored in battery 26 to charge an electrical device using charging port 22.

(7) The foregoing description conveys the best understanding of the objectives and advantages of the present invention. Different embodiments may be made of the inventive concept of this invention. It is to be understood that all matter disclosed herein is to be interpreted merely as illustrative, and not in a limiting sense.
