PORTABLE ENERGY-SAVING AND ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY ELECTRIC VEHICLE

Abstract

A portable energy-saving and environment-friendly electric vehicle is light in weight, small in volume, convenient in electricity charging, and disassemble to be collected into a backpack for portability. The backpack is further furnished with a crank-handle generator to fulfill manpower electricity generation and working out simultaneously. This energy-saving and environment-friendly electric vehicle is mainly consisted of two adjustable skateboards and a support rod for adjusting speed and connecting a battery set. The battery set can be conveniently replaced roadside or domestically. In a situation of power out, manpower can be used to charge the battery set. Thus, the situation of power out to shut down the electric vehicle can be met. In addition, the battery set associated with the generator is reliable for charging mobile phones and computers.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] In the following detailed description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the disclosed embodiments. It will be apparent, however, that one or more embodiments may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and devices are schematically shown in order to simplify the drawing.

[0022] As shown in sub-FIG. 1-1, while the portable energy-saving and environment-friendly electric vehicle of this disclosure is in a storage state, it can be collected onto a backpack to fulfill an object of portability. In sub-FIG. 1-2, two skateboards 1 are hung at a back side of the backpack. On a lateral side of the backpack, an electricity indicator 2 is disposed to display instant electricity. At a lower portion of the lateral side of the backpack, a retrievable crank handle 3 for an internal generator is equipped. At a middle portion of the lateral side of the backpack, a charging port 4 for mobile phones or computers are provided. As shown in sub-FIG. 1-3, a telescopic support rod 7 in a storage state is collected inside the backpack. At a bottom portion of the backpack, a built-in generator 5 is located. In addition, a battery set, consisted of two replaceable chargeable batteries 6, is also arranged inside the backpack. Upon such an arrangement, while in an outdoor activity, the portable energy-saving and environment-friendly electric vehicle of this disclosure can be easily carried along with the backpack.

[0023] As shown in FIG. 2, a support rod 7 with an adjustable length is present. A handle 7-1 for modulating the speed of the vehicle is provided to a top of the support rod 7. By turning the handle 7-1 to control the speed of the skateboards. When the skateboards are placed on the ground, a positioning hole 8 at a front end of each of the skateboards is configured to buckle the support rod 7. According to user's preference, the support rod 7 can be positioned to the driving or driven skateboard. For a user prefers using his or her left hand, the support rod can be plugged into the positioning hole of the skateboard at the left-hand side. For a user prefers using his or her right hand, the support rod can be plugged into the positioning hole of the skateboard at the right-hand side.

[0024] An expansion link 9 able to adjust relative positioning and spacing of the two skateboards is provided between the two skateboards to meet versatile application requirements. Such a free-style connection between the two skateboards can increase stability of the skateboards, and also provide the user to arbitrarily adjust positions of the two feet so as to achieve a comfortable operation state. A power cable 10 for connecting the battery set in the backpack and the electric motor under the skateboard is arranged to penetrate thereinside through the support rod. In the case that no electric driving is required, the driving skateboard having the electric motor can be mounted to the rear side of the backpack, and the driven skateboard is left on the ground for manpower sliding.

[0025] As shown in FIG. 3, the expansion link 9 connected between the two skateboards has both ends to slide along respective racks at corresponding bottoms of the skateboards, such that the relative positions and spacing of the two skateboards can be arbitrarily adjusted to meet various user needs. Behind a front roller of the drive skateboard, a small electric motor 11 is mounted to drive the skateboards with electricity supply from the power cable penetrating the support rod 7 and the positioning hole 8.

[0026] As shown in FIG. 4, a small crank-handle generator 5 is provided at a bottom portion of the backpack. This generator 5 is electrically connected with the battery set via conductive wiring through the battery interface 12. The generator 5 is furnished with two opposite crank handles 3 extended to be disposed at opposite lateral sides of the backpack for convenient operation by hands or feet. After the battery set is disposed to connect with the battery interface, the manpower can be applied to charge the battery set via the generator. The battery set consisted of two batteries is connected with the generator via the battery interface 12. In FIG. 4, the charging port 4 is used for charging mobile phones or computers. Also, the associated charging status can be observed through the electricity indicator at the lateral side of the backpack.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 5, an application of the portable energy-saving and environment-friendly electric vehicle of this disclosure is schematically illustrated. While in use, the support rod is plugged into the positioning hole of the drive skateboard, and then the battery set can energize the electric motor under the skateboard. For the sake of convenience and safety, the power cable 13 pulled from the backpack can be arranged to penetrate through the sleeve of the cloth, and to connect with the electric motor via the power cable 10 positioned within the support rod, such that no interference with the skateboard can occur.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 6, while the electric charging is infeasible, or in the consideration of energy saving or exercise, the two crank handles 3 pulled out from the respective lateral sides of the backpack can be used to charge the battery set through the generator. As shown in sub-FIG. 6-1, while in charging the battery set via hand power, the backpack can be arranged on a table. On the other hand, as shown in sub-FIG. 6-2, while in charging the battery set via foot power, the backpack can be arranged on the ground. Thus, the objects in charging the battery set and exercise can be obtained simultaneously. Namely, with such a backpack at hand, the situation of power out for mobile phones or notebook computers would be never met at any place or any time.

[0029] With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present disclosure.
