Abstract

A kinetic energy collection device is mounted on a vehicle body. The vehicle body includes drive disks rotated synchronously with wheels of the vehicle body. The kinetic energy collection device includes transmission units, a lift out unit, electrical generators, and an electrical storage. The transmission units are slidably mounted on the vehicle body and include friction disks. The lift out unit includes a braking controller, a pull rod connected with the braking controller, and connection rods rotatably connect the pull rod to the transmission units. The braking controller drives the pull rod to move in response to user's operations, so as to drive the connect rods to rotate, and thus to drive the friction disks of the transmission units to engage or disengage with the drive disks correspondingly. The transmission units drive the electrical generators to generate power. The electrical storage unit stores power generated by the electrical generators.

Dependent claims

A kinetic energy collection device mounted on a vehicle body, wherein the vehicle body comprises drive disks rotated synchronously with wheels of the vehicle body, the kinetic energy collection device comprising:

at least one transmission unit slidably mounted on the vehicle body, each of the least one transmission unit being adjacent one of the drive disks and comprising a friction disk;
a lift-out unit comprising:
a braking controller mounted on the vehicle body;
a pull rod connected with the braking controller;
and
at least one connection rod for rotatably connecting the pull rod to the at the at least one transmission unit;
at least one electrical generator, corresponding to the at least one transmission unit and driven by the at least one transmission unit;
and
an electrical storage unit configured for storing power generated by the electrical generators;
wherein the braking controller is configured for driving the pull rod to move in response to user's operations, so as to drive the at least one connection rod to rotate, and thus to drive the friction disk of each of the at least one transmission unit to engage or disengage with the drive disk correspondingly.
