ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to mounting an electrical generator on a swing axle with auxiliary wheel apparatus; such apparatus providing the suspension/support system for the electrical generator, and such auxiliary wheel, in contact with the road surface, provides the rotation that spins the shaft of the generator.
2. Description of the Prior Art
During recent years, the prior art shows that electric vehicle technology has focused on building a better battery. Most recently hybrids combining gasoline and electric technology have been employed, but to date, no direct charging systems have been employed to facilitate battery charging while the vehicle is being driven.
OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, the objective of this invention is to provide electric vehicles with a practical system that will provide energy to the battery pack while the vehicle is being driven.
Another object is to enhance electrical vehicle range by providing a continuous voltage charge to the battery pack while the vehicle is being driven.
Other objectives, advantages and novel features of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon examination of the invention and the accompanying drawings.
