Vehicle charging assembly by using wind force

Abstract

A vehicle charging assembly includes a charging device that is located in the vehicle, in the top of the vehicle, in the chassis of the vehicle, in the hood of the vehicle, or in one of the doors of the vehicle. The outside air is introduced into the charging device and drives the blade unit and the shaft when the vehicle moves, and the air exits from the vehicle from outlets. The charging unit includes two power generating units accommodated in two respective positioning units to prevent the outside air from entering into the positioning units. The power generating units are connected to the shaft and generate electric power to be used to the vehicle or to be stored in the battery units. The power generating unit is coupled to a processing unit which controls the power generating unit to stop or to transfer electric power to the battery unit.

(1) FIG. 1 is a perspective view to show the vehicle charging assembly of the present invention;

(2) FIG. 2 shows the elements of the vehicle charging assembly of the present invention;

(3) FIG. 3 shows that the vehicle charging assembly of the present invention is installed in the top, the hood and the door of a vehicle, and

(4) FIG. 4 shows that the vehicle charging assembly of the present invention is installed in the chassis of a vehicle.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

(5) Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2 3, the vehicle charging assembly of the present invention comprises a charging device 1. Multiple charging devices 1 are installed is located in the interior of a vehicle 2. In one embodiment, the charging devices 1 are installed in the interior of the top 21 of the vehicle 2, in the interior of the hood 22 of the vehicle 2, in the interior of the chassis 23 of the vehicle 2, or in the interior of one of the hoods 24 of the vehicle 2. The vehicle 2 includes an inlet 25 and an outlet 26, and the inlet 25 and the outlet 26 are located corresponding to the charging devices 1.

(6) The charging device 1 includes a blade unit 11 which includes multiple blades 111. In one embodiment, the blades 111 extend radially from the center of the blade unit 11. A shaft 12 is connected to the center of the blade unit 11. In one embodiment, the blades 111 are located along the outer surface of the shaft 12 and the shaft 12 extends through the center of the blade unit 11. At least one of two ends of the shaft 12 is connected with a power generating unit 13. In one embodiment, there are two power generating units 13 respectively connected to the two ends of the shaft 12. The shaft 12 defines two positioning units 14, and the two power generating units 13 are respectively accommodated in the two positioning units 14. A path 15 is formed between the blade unit 11 and each of the two positioning units 14. In one embodiment, the end edges of each blade 111 of the blade unit 11 is in flush with the positioning units 14.

(7) In one embodiment, the power generating unit 13 is coupled to a battery unit 3 and a processing unit 4. The processing unit 4 has a pre-set current value. The battery unit 3 is coupled to a detecting unit 31 to which the processing unit 4 is coupled. The detecting unit 31 detects current of the battery unit 3.

(8) As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the charging devices 1 are installed in the interior of the top 21 of the vehicle 2, in the interior of the hood 22 of the vehicle 2, in the interior of the chassis 23 of the vehicle 2, or in the interior of one of the doors 24 of the vehicle 2. When the vehicle 2 moves, the outside air is introduced to the paths 15 via the inlets 25a, 25b, 25c and 25d, and drives the blade units 11 and the shafts 12. The two power generating units 13 of each charging device 1 are accommodated in two respective positioning units 14 to prevent the outside air from entering into the positioning units 14. The air then exits from the vehicle 2 from the outlets 26a, 26b and 26c.

(9) The power generating units 13 transfer the kinetic energy of the flowing air into electric power. The electric power is be used to the vehicle 2 or to be stored in the battery units 3.

(10) Besides, the detecting units 31 detect the current of the battery units 3 and compares the current of the battery units 3 with the pre-set current value. When the current of the battery units 3 reaches the pre-set current value, the processing units 4 demand the power generating units 13 to stop transferring electric power to the battery units 3. When the current of the battery units 3 is less than the pre-set current value, the processing units 4 demand the power generating units 13 to transfer electric power to the battery units 3. The electric power stored in the battery units 3 can be used when needed.

(11) While we have shown and described the embodiment in accordance with the present invention, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that further embodiments may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
