This disclosure is an auxiliary system to provide additional power for vehicles which can be applied to land wheel type vehicles without depending on rails, to convert most of the front-wheels drive and rear-wheel drive vehicles to multi-power all-wheel drive vehicles with low cost. Modification can be completed by merely three steps: 1. Arranging this disclosure on a non-driving wheel shaft. 2. Connecting the control box (1) with the brakes (7), a gas pedal (8) and the dashboard. 3. Placing the rechargeable battery packs (6) to the spare position of the vehicle. Adding one to a plurality of motors (5) which are additionally arranged on a non-drive shaft and controlled by the controlled box (1) according to the single-chip microcomputer (2) in the control box to decide whether to apply the auxiliary power according to preset commands, the status and speed of the vehicle, and signals transmitted by the brakes (7) and a gas pedal (8) of the vehicle. The advantages of this disclosure are of being capable to widely install on existing gas vehicles to provide auxiliary power without changing the current vehicles' systems and the modification cost is low.

Various modifications to the preferred embodiments and the generic principles described herein will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art. Thus, the present disclosure is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and features described herein.

Embodiment 1:

[0027] As shown in FIG. 1, one or more motors (5) are mounted on a non-transmission shaft of a vehicle, and a single-chip microcomputer (2) in a control box (1) can judge whether the auxiliary power is needed or not according to preset commands, the vehicle speed, signals from braking and the gas pedal, and the specific judgment methods refer to embodiment 6, 7 and 8.

Embodiment 2:

[0028] As shown in FIG. 2, the inner layer rotating motor (12) is mounted in the central wheel hub (11) as the inner layer rotating motor (12) rotates the rim to rotate the tire and the inner layer rotating motor (12) is mounted by mechanical parts to suspension system (14) while the brake discs are wrapped outside the central wheel hub.

Embodiment 3:

[0029] As shown in FIG. 3, the outer layer rotating motor (13) replaces the function of the central wheel hub (11), the outer layer rotating motor (13) is mounted in the rim as the outer layer rotating motor (13) rotates the rim to rotate the tire and the outer layer rotating motor (13) is comprised with mechanical parts connected to the suspension system (14) and bearings (16) which are used for rotation and the brake discs (15) cover the outer layer rotating motor (13).

Embodiment 4:

[0030] As shown in FIG. 1, the drive step the gas pedal when the vehicle is static, since the gas pedal is connected to the control box (1), and the motor drive (3) of the control box (1) can drive the motor (5), so that the gas engine of the vehicle can work simultaneously with the motor (5) and the vehicle start to move.

Embodiment 5:

[0031] As shown in FIG. 1, the drive can control the output of motor (5) by control box (1) which can be preset to several modes including but not limited to: from small output to large output, from large output to small output, directly to the highest rotating speed and the maximum output, and in order to adjust output ratio between gas engine of the vehicle to motor (5), these preset modes and numbers can be manually switched and changed during driving.

Embodiment 6:

[0032] As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 1 illustrates how a gas pedal controls the motor (5) through a control box (1) which means that a driver can control independently the output of the motor (5) by the control box (1) without stepping the gas pedal since it doesn't consume gas if a drive doesn't step a gas pedal to use gas engine but use electric motor (5) ONLY because traffic jam in the city with lots of starting and stopping costs most fuel consumption and wait until to drive with a stable speed to step the gas pedal.
