Abstract

An improved battery powered four wheel multi-speed all electric motor car, used to move personnel and powered by two multi-wound electric motors connected in tandem so that by engaging the controls three speeds may be achieved. The forward and reverse of the vehicle is accomplished by moving a forward and reverse switch before staring the vehicle by engaging the operating switch. The electrical supply for the vehicle is furnished by batteries charged by a standby rectifier when vehicle is not in use and with solar panel and fuel cell interfacing during daytime operation and the quick removable batteries and hydrogen tanks at exchange stations, if desired by the operator of the vehicle, adds to the uniqueness of our invention by adding to the art of unlimited speed and distance. The interchangeable system of the batteries and the hydrogen tanks on travel routes and the ease which these components can be installed, removed from and replaced in our motor car adds to the many aptitudes of this motor car and to its uniqueness.

Claims

1. An all electric motor car powered by two electric motors mounted on the drive shaft in tandem the electric energy to which is supplied by battery fuel cells and solar panels with basic electrical motor connections in sequence with two series motors connected one-to-the other in series connections followed by a parallel connection of the two motors and then followed by an energized shunt field creating compound motors resulting in three speeds in sequential order.

2. An all electric motorized car described in claim 1 above but with two motors mounted in tandem on rear axel of the motor car.

3. An all electric motorized car described in claim 1 above but having only one (1) motor with a shunt field winding included in the series motor accordingly accomplishing the same results as claim one (1) above without the two series connections of the two motors one-to-the-other and hence a compound motor connection.

4. A battery and tank exchange system in which fully charged batteries and/or hydrogen tanks can be exchanged at designated stations en route for depleted ones of universal design and which are mutually interchangeable on line-of-road and the system being completely compatible with claim number 1, 2 and 3.
