Title of the Invention : Self Power Generating Tire and Wheel Assembly

• All most vehicles are running on the road uses the rubber or rubberized tires. The tire getting pressed up (lift up or getting flat) a little at the bottom frequently wherever contact with road on rotation of the tire wherever touching the road. This happening by the gravity, the weight and running of the vehicle. So the tire getting up (lift up) a little or flat at bottom where the tire touch on the road frequently and vary the outer radius surface area of the tire where touch the road while running of the vehicle. Here, this (bottom lifting up and getting flat) possibility is used to produce Electric current to help run an electric vehicle with less battery pack, can charge the battery on running time and to reduce the time duration of recharging.

• This will be very helpful for all world because all world is suffering for pollution and global warming and one of the main reason is large number of the vehicle in the world. So the all world trying to convert the vehicles fossil fuel to electric vehicles but some major problems like large number of batteries, long recharging time, more cost than fuel fossil vehicles, etc. are makes it difficult. This all problems can reduce with the Self power generating tire and wheel assembly system very effectively. And combination of solar panels with this system can drive small car even with a single 1 0Oah battery in day time.

• I have applied for the national patent in India on 02/03/201 9. The application No. 201941008204 and published on 08/03/2019 as early publication. Journal No. 1 0/2019. RQ No. R20194006471 .

Technical Field

• Explanation to make a Self power generating tire and wheel assembly : Prepare enough stainless- steel or any other non-magnetize pieces of pipe as our required measurement and make solenoids (number of copper wire winding, wire gage depending on magnet, required volt and current) around the pipe as per the number of permanent magnets proposed to install in the pipe and make sure each magnet covered a solenoid (figure No. 1 ). Then insert a proper spring, steel spacer washer, rubber or fiber washer and permanent magnets again rubber or fiber washer and permanent magnets as continue up to the other end of the pipe (figure No. 1 ). The spring should be at wheel (disk) side and other end of each pipe should come to the tire side and have to fit a head ball and its housing to this end (figure No. 1 ). The head ball should stainless-steel, smoothen and polished and ball could rotate freely in its stainless steel housing.

• Fix slip rings on the wheel-rim and connect all solenoids in parallel or series (as our required volt and current) in each pipe assembly then connect to the slip ring through a small electronic power controller each pipe assembly. Many pipe assembly can fit around the wheel in the tire with a specially designed stainless steel structure by many rows and layers around the wheel in the tire (figure no. 2 & 5) including a stainless steel tire protection shield around and near inner diameter of radial tire and can fill air. Then can get the electric power from all the wheel-tires assembly ( when the car is on running ) through carbon brush which connected with slip rings in the wheel of the vehicle (figure no. 2) through a main electronic power controller unit to battery and take the power for motor to drive the car through electronic power controller (figure no. 4).

Background Art

• When each pipe assembly corns between the wheel (disk) and the road, the projected portion of the steel ball will hit by the tire’s inner surface by gravity and weight of the car. So the ball get inn (lift up) and all magnets and its attachment which connected to the steel ball moves to up (lift up) in the pipe and the spring will store energy (compressed) and then all magnets and its attachments and ball will come back to normal position when the particular tire surface away from the road and the same time spring release energy by rotation of tire while running car on the road. So in each movement (magnets in the pipe move in and out within the solenoids) a group of magnet-fields cuts by a group of solenoids fitted around the pipe and produce an electric current. So a group of pipe assembly (whichever within bottom flat area) At a time will come between road and the wheel in one tire and such the four wheel and tire assembly (figure no. 4) of a car will get a large amount of electricity to help drive an electric car with very less battery pack. This happening by the gravity, weight of the vehicle and rotation of the tire while moving the car on the road, more result can get with a little less air in tire.

Summary of Invention

• All most vehicles are running on the road uses the rubber or rubberized tires. The tire getting pressed up (lift up or getting flat) a little at the bottom frequently wherever contact with road on rotation of the tire wherever touching the road (figure no. 3). This happening by the gravity, the weight and running of the vehicle. So the tire getting up (lift up) a little up or flat at bottom where the tire touch on the road frequently and vary the outer radius surface area of the tire where touch the road while running of the vehicle (figure no. 3). Here, this (bottom lifting up and getting flat) possibility is used to produce Electric current to help run an electric car and to reduce the capacity of battery pack.

Technical Problem

• The permanent magnets and its washers may get scratch. Solution given below in Solution No. 1 .

• The tire may get damaged by hit the pipe assembly directly. Solution given below in Solution No. 2.

• It is a little difficulties to make this assembly and insert into the tire. The solution given below in the solution to problems No. 3 and No. 5.

• The pipe assembly may misaligned while running. The Solution given below in Solution No. 4.

• A little difficulties the unit install in the tire. The solution given below in the solution No. 5.

Solution to Problem

• Solution No. 1 - All magnet, washer, spacer and spring should be a little lesser diameter than the pipe’s inner diameter because of its free movement in the pipe and pack all magnets and washers together and make a coating around the pack to protect from scratch while move the magnets and washers pack move in the pipe. Then have to apply lubricants (like Greece) in the pipe and in the stainless steel ball and its housing.

• Solution No. 2- Stainless steel Tire protection shield is a thicker SS sheet just near and around in the tire with round hole cuttings. The hole diameter is same as SS pipe’s outer diameter and number of holes is as per the number of SS pipe assemblies. Each pipe assembly ends and fitted in this hole and the SS ball will be projected from this hole between the shield and the tire by the tension of the spring in pipe assembly in normal position in each pipe assembly. The tire protection shield will help to protect from the tire getting damaged and SS ball getting more inn.

• Solution No. 3- The above said specially designed stainless steel structure including the pipes and tire protection shield can mold as a single piece and can install spring, permanent magnets, solenoids and other all attachments and can mold (make) tire over the device in case large level production.

• Solution No. 4- Stainless steel structure - This maid by SS roads, SS sheets and SS fittings and the tire protection shield, inner SS base layer ( near the wheel - rim ) is also the parts of this, SS pipe assembly fixed in it by SS cross bars and SS road rings this keeps the stability and alignment of each pipe assembly in the tire while running. And tire protection shield will protect against damage the tire by hit the pipe assembly even on a rash road.

• Solution No. 5- A little difficulties but it is possible to insert into the tire and fill the air. Make the unit out of the tire with all stainless steel structure as per the measurement of the tire and wheel then break it as three pieces as two large and a small pieces. Then insert one side of the tire into the wheel first and Insert the two large size portion into the tire through between the tire and wheel rim (like rubber tube inserting into the tire between tire and the rim of the wheel) and insert the small one then fix all three pieces together with nuts and bolts then the whole structure fix with wheel which is pree welded brackets in the wheel to fix the structure, take all cables out from the pipe assembly to slip ring through the way provided previously and apply air sealant on the cable way and put second side of the tire to the wheel and fill the air. Special tools and skill needed for this. But the all designed stainless steel structure including the pipes and tire protection shield can mold as a single piece and can install spring, permanent magnets, solenoids and other all attachments and can mold (make) tire over the device in case of large quantity production.

Advantageous Effects of Invention

• When increasing the speed, the power generation will increase so can charge the battery on running of the vehicle some more effectively.

• Can reduce the Electrical charging time duration very effectively so electrical charging stations also can manage well.

• The electricity charging current will be lesser than before so the electric bill payment also can reduce.

• It will be more useful with the combination of Solar panels if sunlight can get on running time or in parking time.

• Lithium Iron batteries are more preferred electric vehicle manufacturers because of its good

efficiency. But the Lithium is very less quantity in the earth. This technology can reduce that problems by reducing the battery pack. • With this technology can reduce the cost of all electrical vehicle because of its less backup battery pack. Now these days the battery pack is costly.

• E-waste - Now this days the E-waste management is very difficulties for all world. What will be the result of battery waste in future if all world turn to electric vehicle, there will be very large amount of battery waste than E-waste and it will be multiplied very faster than E-waste because of its large size, large quantity needs in each vehicles and very large number of Vehicle needed battery in the world. Nobody thinking seriously about future that large amount of used battery waste. This technology can reduce that problems very effectively

• Large and very large vehicles like buses, trucks, trailers and container trailers are used many number of tires. If can convert to this system to all vehicle to make to avoid pollution, reduce expense and reduce battery waste and a little help the world to keep Green.

• This may use in the space research vehicle where the gravity force is there. Many possibilities are there in space. With a small size of this device in space research vehicle can operate in a low sunlight area. The space vehicles can run more long and fast than before because of its self-power generation
