Energy Harvesting Concepts TRIZ Cases
- Vehicle Sunroof Solar Cell Electrical Connection
An intermediary member routes electrical connections between movable sunroof closure members and the stationary roof structure, minimizing wiring complexity.
- Sunroof Solar Power Transmission via Segmented Spring Assemblies
Segmented upper and lower transmission assemblies with spring pads enable continuous power transfer from vehicle sunroof solar cells.
- Onboard Electricity Production for Electric Vehicle Fuel Efficiency
An onboard generator produces electricity from a small internal combustion engine to extend driving range and eliminate stationary recharging time.
