WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/133070
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Flywheel apparatus for use with vehicles are disclosed. A disclosed flywheel assembly for a vehicle includes a first flywheel. The flywheel assembly also includes a second flywheel movably coupled to the first flywheel and configured to receive a torque generated by an engine of the vehicle. The flywheel assembly also includes a first spring interposed between the first and second flywheels. Rotation of the second flywheel relative to the first flywheel compresses and decompresses the first spring. The flywheel assembly also includes a ring positioned on an outer surface of the first flywheel and configured to expand as a rotational speed of the ring increases to decrease a total inertia of the first flywheel and the ring applied to the first spring.
