Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to an energy recovery device for storing and releasing the energy of vehicle braking, in particular to a spring brake energy recovery device, which belongs to the technical field of vehicles. Background technique
[0002] At present, there are two main types of braking energy recovery methods: one is to drive a generator to generate electricity from the braking energy and store the electric energy; the other is to convert the braking energy into compressed air energy for storage. These two types have energy loss in the process of energy conversion, and the structure is more complicated and the cost is higher. The best energy recovery method is mechanical energy storage, but it is unrealistic to use it on current fuel vehicles, because the structure of mechanical energy storage is huge and the energy recovery device is too heavy. Therefore, for light-duty electric vehicles, it is necessary to find an energy recovery device with hi...
