摘要:
A system for employing gravity to provide electrical power for mining operations in a mine includes a battery configured to power an electric vehicle. The vehicle includes a kinetic energy capture system that can charge the battery as the vehicle conveys a loaded vehicle down a ramp from an ore face to a chamber. Traveling down the ramp produces a surplus charge in the battery due to a weight differential between a loaded vehicle traveling down a ramp producing more energy via the kinetic energy capture system than energy used by the vehicle to convey the empty vehicle up the ramp to the ore face. A discharging device disposed in the chamber is configured to discharge the surplus energy out of the battery and into the mine's power grid. One or multiple trips between the ore face and the chamber may fully charge the battery.

A regenerative shock absorber that include a housing and a piston that moves at least partially through the housing when the shock is compressed or extended from a rest position. When the piston moves, hydraulic fluid is pressurized and drives a hydraulic motor. The hydraulic motor, in turn, drives an electric generator that produced electric energy. The electric enemy may be provided to a vehicle, among other things. The regenerative shock absorber may also provide ride performance that comparable to or exceeds that of conventional shock absorbers.

Manual drive energy is input into a transport device of one embodiment by linearly reciprocating a first drive member that couples by way of a ratchet mechanism (or other mechanical motion rectifier means) and a mechanical motion amplifier means to one or more faster spinning flywheel masses. The one or more flywheel masses are formed in part by a combination electric motor/generator and it has rechargeable electric batteries distributively provided about a flywheel mass portion thereof. Tapered roller bearings having ferromagnetic material are interposed between the one or more flywheel masses and/or between one of the flywheels and a stationary frame of the transport device so as to repeatedly make and break closed magnetic flux conducting loops and thus provide at least one of an electric motoring and electricity generating function.

One embodiment attached to a vehicle suspension strut or vehicle suspension shock-spring assembly or a vehicle shock absorber includes a set of cylinders (64,66,68,70) containing a number of magnets (72,74,76,78,80,82,84,86,88) and a second set of cylinders (42,44,46,48,50) containing a number of electrically conducting coils (54,56,58,60,62). The set of cylinders containing the magnets is attached to one end of the suspension strut or shock-spring or shock absorber assembly and the set of cylinders containing the conducting coils is attached to the opposite end of the suspension strut or shock-spring or shock absorber assembly such that the magnets move past the conducting coils when the suspension assembly is compressed or extended during displacement of the vehicle wheel. The conducting coils are connected to an electrical charging system used to store electrical charge or generate electrical power.

For driving a power plant with linear motion, an arc clutch engages and drives a power plant shaft in response to the arc clutch being rotated in a first angular direction and disengages from the power plant shaft in response to the arc clutch being rotated in a second angular direction that is opposite the first angular direction. The power plant is driven by the rotating power plant shaft. A motivator is physically connected to the arc clutch and transfers a linear motion to the arc clutch.
