Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To provide automobiles that use wind power as an energy conservation measure. [Structure] A wind power generator is arranged on a projecting member such as a rear spoiler, a side mirror, and a front bumper, and a shutter is preferably arranged at a suction port to regenerate electric power during braking.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a vehicle equipped with a wind power generator.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In recent years, due to resource saving and exhaust gas problems, energy saving measures for automobiles have begun to be called for, and various proposals have been made for automobiles equipped with solar cells and the like.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, solar cells and the like consume a large amount of electric power in order to make them, and thus have a drawback that they do not provide the original energy saving. The present invention was created in view of the above circumstances, and is intended to provide a vehicle using wind power as an energy saving measure.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In this invention, a wind power generator is arranged on a protruding member, and a rear spoiler, a side mirror, a front bumper, etc. are used as the protruding member, and it is desirable that a spiral wind flow concentration mechanism is arranged on the wind power generator. In addition, it is advisable to install a shutter at the suction port that normally closes in response to accelerator work and opens during braking.

[0005]

[Action]

 In this way, the protruding member is susceptible to wind force and can obtain electric power during traveling, and if this electric power is stored in a spare battery, it can be used as an auxiliary heater in winter (for example, seat heat insulation) or a ventilation fan in summer. . In addition, if the shutter is used to regenerate electric power only during braking, there will be no resistance during running and performance will not deteriorate.

[0006]

Embodiment 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a first embodiment of the present invention, in which a rear spoiler is used as a protruding member. That is, the rear spoiler 1 is composed of an upper wing 2, a lower wing 3 and a support 4, and a wind power generator (composed of a wing and a DC motor) 5 is arranged between these wings. A shutter 7 that is closed when the accelerator is turned on is arranged at the intake port 6, and the lower blade 3 as a whole including this shutter 7 is set to have a downward arc with respect to the upper blade 2. Plays the role of. A plurality of wind power generators 5 may be installed in parallel.

FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the second embodiment, in which the wind power generator 5 is arranged inside the shell-type side mirror 8 as a protruding member, and the spiral groove 9 is provided inside the mirror 8. It has been crushed, and it has an air volume concentration mechanism. The front surface of the side mirror is also provided with a shutter 10 that opens and closes in response to an accelerator work, and if necessary, for example, in response to the accelerator, it may be closed during acceleration and opened during deceleration to regenerate electric power.

A front bumper may be considered as the protruding member, and a plurality of wind power generators may be buried in the front bumper.

[0009]

[Effect of device]

 In this invention, the wind power generator is arranged on the protruding member as described above, so that the appearance is good as a whole without special arrangement space, and if the generated power is stored in the spare battery, the main battery It can be used as an auxiliary power source, heat insulation for winter seats, and as electric power for ventilation fans in summer, thus achieving an energy saving effect. In particular, if a shutter that responds to accelerator work is arranged at the suction port, efficient regenerative braking becomes possible.
