Abstract
A green energy electrical charging station including a support pole; a bench for connecting to and extending from the support pole; a canopy for connecting to the support pole and shading at least a portion of the bench; at least one solar collector on at least a portion of the canopy; at least one wind turbine supported by the pole above the canopy; a battery for electrical association with the at least one solar collector and the at least one wind turbine; a first electrical circuit for delivering electrical power from the at least one wind turbine and solar collector to the battery; at least one electrical outlet located in proximity to the bench; and a second electrical circuit for delivering electrical power from the battery to the electrical outlet.
Claims23
A green energy electrical charging station, comprising:
- a support pole;
- a bench configured for connecting to and extending from the support pole;
- a canopy including a plurality of overlapping panels and configured for connecting to the support pole for shading at least a portion of the bench, wherein at least one of the overlapping panels at least partially covers at least another one of the overlapping panels, and wherein the canopy is connected at a pitch or incline relative to the support pole;
- at least one solar collector configured for location on at least a portion of the canopy;
- at least one battery for electrical association with the at least one solar collector;
- at least one first electrical circuit for delivering electrical power from the at least one solar collector to the at least one battery;
- and
- at least one electrical outlet for location in proximity to the bench.
A green energy electrical charging station, comprising:
- a foldable support pole including a first pole section, a second pole section, and at least one hinge for pivoting the second pole section relative to the first pole section, wherein the second pole section is located adjacent to and aligned with the first pole section in a folded configuration;
- a bench configured for connecting to and extending from the foldable support pole;
- a canopy configured for connecting to the foldable support pole for shading at least a portion of the bench, and wherein the canopy is connected at a pitch or incline relative to the foldable support pole;
- at least one green energy source disposed on at least a portion of the canopy;
- at least one battery for electrical association with the at least one green energy source;
- at least one first electrical circuit for delivering electrical power from the at least one green energy source to the at least one battery;
- and
- at least one electrical outlet for location in proximity to the bench.
