As the power supply equipment for the whole vehicle electrical appliances, the generator plays an important role in the whole vehicle circuit. At present, the power supply of the whole vehicle electrical appliances of the internal combustion engine vehicle only comes from the engine driving the generator, which greatly limits the power supply mode of the whole vehicle electrical appliances. Some cars use solar power generation, which requires additional solar panels;

[0003] For example, the public document with the announcement number of application number 201710174914.3 and the patent name of "Solar chip fixing device, solar chip assembly and solar car" discloses a solar chip fixing device, a solar chip assembly and a solar car, the fixing device includes: a plurality of mounting frames, each of which is provided with a groove on the side of the mounting frame; a water-conducting connector, which cooperates with the grooves on two adjacent mounting frames to fix the two adjacent mounting frames in connection; a substrate, which is fixed on the top of the mounting frame, and the top surface of the substrate is used to fix the solar chip. In the solar chip fixing device, solar chip assembly and solar car provided by the present invention, the fixing device is provided with a plurality of mounting frames, the plurality of mounting frames are connected by water-conducting connectors, and a substrate is also provided, the solar chip is fixed on the substrate, thereby forming a large-area solar chip assembly, and the solar chip assembly can be used as a roof.

[0004] Similar devices have disadvantages such as large mass, increased wind resistance, fuel consumption, and high installation costs, so they are difficult to popularize. However, hydropower generation technology is becoming more and more mature. Therefore, diversifying the power supply mode of the vehicle's electrical appliances while increasing a small amount of cost is a new and efficient way of working. Summary of the invention

[0008] The drain outlet is located at one end of the sink, and the drain outlet of the sink is the lowest position of the sink. A filter net bag is provided on the drain outlet, and the edge of the filter net bag is fixed to the drain outlet through a snap structure to separate the sink and the drain pipe.

[0009] The drain outlet and the water inlet are both provided with an inner spiral structure with the same spiral direction, and the drain outlet is a bucket-shaped structure with a larger top and a smaller bottom.

[0010] Luggage racks are arranged on both sides of the car roof, and a horizontal water retaining strip is arranged at the rear end of the car roof. Both ends of the water retaining strip contact the luggage racks at both ends. The luggage racks and the water retaining strip constitute a water storage device for guiding the water accumulated on the car roof to the front windshield.

[0011] The automobile roof is a slope with a lower front and a higher rear.

[0012] The water retaining bar is fixed on the electric lifting mechanism. When the vehicle is started, the electric lifting mechanism lowers the water retaining bar so that the top of the water retaining bar is flush with the roof.

[0023] The following is a further detailed description of the specific implementation methods of the present invention, such as the shape, structure, relative position and connection relationship between the various components involved, the function and working principle of each part, the manufacturing process and operation method, etc., through the description of the embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings, so as to help those skilled in the art to have a more complete, accurate and in-depth understanding of the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention.

[0024] A device for supplying power to the electrical appliances of a conventional internal combustion engine vehicle based on hydroelectric power generation technology, wherein the power supply device increases power supply to the electrical appliances by adding a turbine 1 and changing the arrangement of a generator 2; rainwater on both sides of the rainboard flows out from a drainage hole on one side of the generator 2, and a turbine 1 is added below the drainage hole, so that the potential energy of rainwater falling from the drainage hole is converted into mechanical energy of the turbine 1, and the generator 2 is driven to start working and complete power generation under the connection of a belt.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the automobile hydroelectric power generation system sets a water trough 4 at the lower eave of the front windshield 5 of the automobile. The water trough 4 is a strip structure, and its length is consistent with the width of the front windshield 5. The water trough 4 is sealed as a whole and has only one drain port. Generally, the drain port is set on one side of the vehicle, and the drain port is connected to the water inlet of the hydroelectric turbine 1 through a water pipe. The hydroelectric turbine 1 is connected to the input shaft of the generator 2, and the power supply output end of the generator 2 is connected to the battery 3, so that the battery 3 can be charged when it rains, which can reduce the probability of power feeding of the battery 3 when it is parked outdoors for a long time.

[0026] After adopting this system, two generators 2 are provided, one is an existing conventional generator 2 which is driven by an engine through a belt, and the other is a hydroelectric turbine 1 driven by rainwater to generate electricity.

[0027] The drain outlet is arranged at one end of the sink 4 mainly for the convenience of cleaning. The drain outlet of the sink 4 is the lowest position of the sink 4. Because the vehicle parked outdoors may cause leaves and other debris to block the drain outlet, it is preferred to provide a filter bag on the drain outlet, similar to the filter structure in the household sink 4. The edge of the filter bag is fixed to the drain outlet by a snap structure, which is convenient for manual removal and can be put back after pouring out the debris. The filter bag can separate the sink 4 and the drain pipe, thereby reducing the probability of blockage of the drain pipe inside the power generation system.

[0028] In order to increase the power generation efficiency, the drain outlet and the water inlet are both provided with an inner spiral structure with the same spiral direction, so that the water flow can be accelerated twice, and the drain outlet is a bucket-shaped structure with a larger top and a smaller bottom, which increases the kinetic energy, so that even if the amount of rainwater is not large, it can generate enough force to drive the hydroelectric turbine 1.

[0029] In order to increase the power generation efficiency on rainy days, luggage racks 7 are provided on both sides of the automobile roof 6, and a horizontal water retaining strip 10 is provided at the rear end of the roof 6, so that the roof 6 also becomes a water storage part to increase the amount of rainwater received. Both ends of the water retaining strip 10 contact the luggage racks 7 at both ends, and the front end of the luggage rack 7 extends to the front part of the roof 6. The luggage rack 7 and the water retaining strip 10 constitute a water storage device for guiding the accumulated water on the roof 6 to the front windshield 5. The automobile roof 6 is a slope with a low front and a high rear, which increases the water storage efficiency and can also prevent water accumulation on the roof 6. Because the water retaining bar 10 at the rear is not conducive to reducing the wind resistance of the car, the water retaining bar 10 is fixed on the electric lifting mechanism. When the vehicle is started, the electric lifting mechanism makes the water retaining bar 10 in a lowered state, and the top of the water retaining bar 10 is flush with the roof 6. When the vehicle is turned off, the electric lifting mechanism makes the water retaining bar 10 in a raised state, and the top of the water retaining bar 10 is flush with the luggage rack 7. An additional lifting condition can be added, that is, only when the generator 2 of this system starts to generate electricity and the vehicle is in a flameout state, the electric lifting mechanism is started to raise the water retaining bar 10. Intelligent control can raise the water retaining bar 10 when needed, which does not affect the driving wind resistance and can also reduce and enhance the water storage and power generation effect.

[0030] In order to further increase the water storage capacity, an inwardly recessed groove is provided on the outer side of the two luggage racks 7. The length of the groove is close to the length of the luggage rack 7. A water-conducting membrane 8 is provided in the groove. The water-conducting membrane 8 can be unfolded to increase the area of ​​the roof 6. When not in use, the water-conducting membrane 8 is stored in the groove without any influence on the appearance of the vehicle. The grooves of the two luggage racks 7 are open to the outside, that is, they can be unfolded outward. A support strip is provided on the outer side of the water-conducting membrane 8, which can fit the opening when stored, which is both beautiful and can seal the groove. A telescopic mechanism 9 is provided between the support strip and the luggage rack 7. The telescopic mechanism 9 extends obliquely upward to increase the rain receiving area of ​​the roof 6. The inclination angle is generally set at about 15 degrees (compared to the horizontal plane).

[0031] The support bar has an elastic metal bar, and the telescopic mechanism 9 is composed of an active rod and an electric cylinder of an X-shaped hinge structure. Figure 4 As shown, multiple X-shaped hinge structures can be provided, only one of which is used as the main opening structure, and the rest are used as the driven supporting structures. The movable side of the X-shaped hinge structure is embedded in the slide groove of the support bar, and the other side is embedded in the slide groove of the support bar, like scissors. When the water-conducting membrane 8 is in the storage state, the X-shaped hinge structure is in a straight line shape, and when the water-conducting membrane 8 is in the unfolded state, the X-shaped hinge structure is in an X shape. The hinge position of the X-shaped hinged movable rod is fixed on the water-conducting membrane 8, and the electric cylinder is fixed in the luggage rack 7 to drive the X-shaped hinged movable rod to expand or retract. The electric cylinder presumes that the X-shaped hinge structure is active, and the specific fixing method is not limited thereto. When the car is turned off and the hydroelectric generator 2 starts to generate electricity, the water-conducting membrane 8 is unfolded, otherwise the water-conducting membrane 8 is retracted into the luggage rack 7 or the water-conducting membrane 8 is maintained in a retracted state.

[0032] Because a humid environment may cause damage to devices, the support strip is an elastic metal strip as a whole, and a rubber layer is provided on the inner side and the edge. The overall size of the support strip is closely matched with the opening of the luggage rack 7. When the water-conducting membrane 8 is stored, the support strip can seal the inside of the groove. However, if the water-conducting membrane 8 is not dried after use, the internal humidity will be too high. Therefore, a humidity sensor is provided in the groove. When the vehicle is parked, a self-check is performed. If the humidity is greater than the set value, the water-conducting membrane 8 is unfolded. After this mode is turned on, if the vehicle is started, the water-conducting membrane 8 will still be automatically stored.

[0033] Working principle:

[0034] The rainwater on both sides of the rainboard is gathered along the gutter 4 from the same side so that it can flow out from the guide pipe.

[0035] The rainwater flowing out of the guide pipe falls on the blades of the turbine 1. When the turbine 1 rotates, it drives the generator 2 to start working under the connection of the coaxial shaft, and then the generator 2 completes the power supply for the electrical equipment of the whole vehicle and the battery 3.

[0036] The design of the coaxial connection between the turbine 1 and the generator 2 can complete power generation under the drive of the turbine 1 without affecting the work between the engine and the generator 2, thereby achieving the purpose of diversified power generation modes.

[0037] In addition, the vehicle roof 6 and the water-conducting membrane 8 can be used to increase the volume of water flow, increase the power generation efficiency on rainy days, and reduce the situation where the battery 3 is fed due to long-term parking outdoors.

[0038] The present invention is described above by way of example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned method. As long as various non-substantial improvements are made using the method concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the concept and technical solution of the present invention are directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
