ABSTRACT:
An electrohydraulic vehicle drive system having a battery as the primary source of power being electrically connected to an electric motor that is mechanically connected to a multistage pump for pressurizing fluid according to the torque and horsepower requirement of the vehicle in which the pressurized fluid is fed to a standard hydraulic cylinder having piston rods reciprocatably connected to each end of a non rotatable worm screw gear having a right hand pitch at one end and a left hand pitch at the other end and arranged for reciprocatable engagement on each end to a rectangular gear fixed to the center of the clutch plate connected to a rotatable clutch disc for imparting rotation to a flywheel fixed to each end of a hollow output shaft to which the worm screw reciprocates therethrough in rotating the output shaft that is operatively connected to a clutch operative jackshaft connected to each side of an axle having a bearing to its center with the axles fixed at each end to a rotatable wheel of a vehicle. Provision is made for the recovery of electricity from electromagnetic wind generators, gyrogenerators, and gravitational generators, and for the recovery of compressed air from air pumps positioned vertically between the axle and the chassis of the vehicle replacing the standard shock absorbers. Auxiliary power is provided by a steam generator and compressed air for driving an alternator for generating electricity or alternatively for operating the drive cylinder. An intensifier boosts the pressure to the cylinder.
