Abstract
The exemplary embodiments herein provide a dual fuel system with a recreational vehicle electric battery for use with a power generation assembly. The system comprises a combustion engine with a stator assembly for generating power and further having a gasoline pump, an LP shutoff valve, and a carburetor valve. The system further comprises a recreational vehicle battery, a DC rectifier in electrical communication with the stator assembly, a fuel selection switch, and a digital fuel valve control module (DFVCM). Multiple fuels are safely controlled while interchanging power between a battery and the DC rectifier.
Claims20
A dual fuel power generation system for use with a recreational vehicle battery, the system comprising:
- a combustion engine having
- a stator assembly which generates power,
- a gasoline pump,
- an LP shutoff valve positioned to control the flow of LP gas into a combustion chamber of the engine, and
- a carburetor valve positioned to control the flow of gasoline from the gasoline pump into a carburetor of the engine,
- a DC rectifier in electrical communication with the stator assembly;
- a fuel selection switch accepting input for a desired fuel from a user;
- and
- a digital fuel valve control module (DFVCM) in electrical communication with the gasoline pump, LP shutoff valve, carburetor valve, recreational vehicle battery, DC rectifier, and fuel selection switch.
