Patent Application
20180266061
The subject matter relates to a road deceleration strip generation device, which can utilize the pressure generated when a vehicle runs across a road deceleration strip to generate power.
With popularization of vehicles, traffic safety problems are more and more prominent. To ensure the safety of traffic purposes, road deceleration strips are set to slow down the vehicles.
The road deceleration strip is also called slowdown ridge. The road deceleration strip is a traffic facility which installed on the road to make the vehicle slowdown. A shape of the road deceleration strip is generally strip, but can also be a bit like. The road deceleration strip is generally made of rubber, but can also be made of metal. The road deceleration strip is generally in black and white to cause visual attention. The road deceleration strip is slightly arched relative to the road to achieve vehicle reduction speed purpose. The road deceleration strip is generally set in the road crossing, industrial and mining enterprises, schools, residential district entrance and so on.
However, vehicles in the process of slowing down need to go through a small slope, resulting in a great energy loss. In other words, the use of road deceleration strips wastes part of the kinetic energy of the vehicles.
Many aspects of the disclosure can be better understood with reference to the following drawing. The components in the drawing are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the present charging battery unit and electronic device for microminiaturization. Moreover, in the drawing, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the whole view. Implementations of the present technology will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the attached figures:
It will be appreciated that for simplicity and clarity of illustration, where appropriate, reference numerals have been repeated among the different figures to indicate corresponding or analogous elements. In addition, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments described herein. However, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the embodiments described herein can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, methods, procedures, and components have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the related relevant feature being described. Also, the description is not to be considered as limiting the scope of the embodiments described herein. The drawings are not necessarily to scale and the proportions of certain parts have been exaggerated to illustrate details and features of the present disclosure better.
The disclosure is illustrated by way of example and not by way of limitation in the figures of the accompanying drawings, in which like references indicate similar elements. It should be noted that references to “an” or “one” embodiment in this disclosure are not necessarily to the same embodiment, and such references mean at least one.
Several definitions that apply throughout this disclosure will now be presented.
The term “coupled” is defined as connected, whether directly or indirectly through intervening components, and is not necessarily limited to physical connections. The connection can be such that the objects are permanently connected or releasably connected. The term “comprising,” when utilized, means “including, but not necessarily limited to”; it specifically indicates open-ended inclusion or membership in the so-described combination, group, series, and the like.
Referring to
The power generation member 20 includes a permanent magnet unit 21 and a coil 22. The coil 22 is positioned in an electromagnetic field of the permanent magnet unit 21. The permanent magnet unit 21 includes an S-pole permanent magnet 21a and an N-pole permanent magnet 21b. The S-pole permanent magnet 21a and the N-pole permanent magnet 21b face each other. The S-pole permanent magnet 21a and the N-pole permanent magnet 21b are separated from each other, and the coil 22 is located between the S-pole permanent magnet 21a and the N-pole permanent magnet 21b.
The coil 22 is coupled to the road deceleration strip 10. When the road deceleration strip 10 is pressed by the vehicle, the coil 22 is driven by the road deceleration strip 10 to rotate, so that the coil 22 cuts flux of the electromagnetic field of the permanent magnet unit 21 to generate an induced current.
Preferably, the road deceleration strip generation device 100 further includes a transmission member 30. The transmission member 30 connects the road deceleration strip 10 and the coil 22. When the road deceleration strip 10 is pressed by the vehicle, the transmission member 30 bears a pressure from the road deceleration strip 10 and converts the pressure into a torque to drive the coil 22 to rotate.
Preferably, the road deceleration strip generation device 100 further includes a speed machine 40. The speed machine 40 connects the road deceleration strip 10 and the coil 22. The speed machine 40 is configured to increase a rotational speed of the coil 22. The speed machine 40 can be a traditional gear speed increaser which has an output rotational speed greater than an input rotational speed. When the road deceleration strip 10 is pressed by the vehicle, the input rotational speed is provided by the road deceleration strip 10 to the speed machine 40, and the speed machine 40 provides the output rotational speed to the coil 22.
Preferably, the road deceleration strip generation device 100 further includes a rectifier 50 and an inverter 60. The rectifier 50 electronically connects the coil 22 and the inverter 60. The inverter 60 is electronically connected to a grid 70. The inverter 60 connects the rectifier 50 and the grid 70. The rectifier 50 and the inverter 60 feed the generated induced current to the grid 70 and further supply loads 80.
The rectifier 50 is configured to convert the alternating currents generated in the coil 22 into direct currents. The rectifier 50 further filters the direct currents to the inverter 60. The inverter 60 is configured to convert the direct currents supplied from the rectifier 50 into alternating currents with preset value, such as 220V alternating currents. The inverter 60 further feeds back the alternating currents to the grid 70 to supply the load 80. Also, the rectifier 50 and the inverter 60 may also deal with the induced currents generated in the coil 22 and then directly supply to the load 80.
An electromagnetic induction principle is utilized in the road deceleration strip generation device 100. When vehicles run across the road deceleration strip 10, the coil 22 of the power generation member 20 is rotated to generate induced currents. Thus, the mechanical energy of the vehicles is converted into a sustainable electric energy to improve the energy efficiency and save coal resources.
The embodiments shown and described above are only examples. Many details are often found in the art such as the other features of the road deceleration strip generation device. Therefore, many such details are neither shown nor described. Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present technology have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and function of the present disclosure, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in the detail, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of the parts within the principles of the present disclosure, up to and including the full extent established by the broad general meaning of the terms used in the claims. It will, therefore, be appreciated that the embodiments described above may be modified within the scope of the claims.
