Abstract
A plurality of individual batteries are independently mounted for reciprocatory movement according to the motion of a supporting vehicle, and means are actuated by the reciprocal movement of the batteries for converting such movement to constant rotary movement to drive means for regenerating said batteries. The batteries are disposed in spaced relation to facilitate cooling.
Claims10
A vehicle having a frame supporting an electric system and battery means for operating said system, comprising two relatively reciprocatory parts on said frame means supporting one said part from the other said part for reciprocatory movement in accordance with variations in the supporting medium, at least one of said parts being reciprocatory relative to the vehicle frame, means connected between such parts for converting such reciprocal movement into rotary mechanical power, power reserve means receiving and storing said rotary mechanical power, and current generating means for recharging said battery and driven by said power reserve means, said battery means comprising a plurality of batteries and said one part comprising means individually supporting said batteries in spaced relation for reciprocal movement relative to the vehicle frame.
