Patent attributes
The generator and electrical motor system for multi-axle vehicles uses a generator to power electric motors which propel a multi-axle vehicle. The system includes a hybrid powertrain, a primary battery bank, and a primary generator. The hybrid powertrain uses electric motors to provide the drive power for the vehicle. To that end, the hybrid powertrain has a drive axle, an electric motor, a powertrain battery, and a power management unit. The drive axle is rotated by the electric motor and rotates the wheels of a vehicle. The primary battery bank and the powertrain battery are rechargeable electrical energy storage devices that store the power supplied by the generator. Additionally, the primary battery bank and the powertrain battery supply electrical power to the electric motor. Finally, the power management unit is a power conditioning system that regulates current and voltage being distributed to the electrical components of the system.
