Abstract

The paper presents a lightweight vehicle, based on a frame made of metal tubes. Two novel electric disc motors are mounted directly into the front wheels and are controlled by an efficient electronic circuit that also provides an energy saving brake mode by charging the batteries with current gained through the braking process. The vehicle can transport an average family of 4 persons with a speed of 12 mph over a distance of 35-40 miles before recharging. Solar panels complement the battery power supply and provide up to 30% of the total energy for the regular drive mode. Considering the total costs of operation-a few cents per mile, when calculating with a life time of 500 charging cycles for the batteries and the additional use of solar panels-this vehicle can successfully replace a considerable part of the conventional car fleets of recreational or rehabilitation areas, and as a device for individual transport for shopping, business or leisure activities. The only limitations are set by the climate and by the topography of the operational area. Improvements in battery technology will further increase the chances on the market for this type of vehicle.

用于娱乐场所和当地交通的电动汽车

本文提出了一种基于金属管框架的轻型车辆。两个新型的电动盘式马达直接安装在前轮上，由一个高效的电子电路控制，该电路还通过制动过程中获得的电流为电池充电来提供节能制动模式。这辆车可以在充电前以12英里/小时的速度运送一个普通的4口之家，行驶35-40英里。太阳能电池板补充电池供电，并为常规驱动模式提供高达30%的总能量。考虑到运行的总成本——每英里几美分，计算电池500次充电周期的寿命和太阳能电池板的额外使用——这辆车可以成功地取代相当一部分用于娱乐或康复区的传统车队，并作为个人购物、商务或休闲活动的交通工具。唯一的限制是由气候和作战地区的地形决定的。电池技术的改进将进一步增加这类汽车在市场上的机会。
