Abstract

A vehicle charging assembly includes a charging device that is located in the vehicle, in the top of the vehicle, in the chassis of the vehicle, in the hood of the vehicle, or in one of the doors of the vehicle. The outside air is introduced into the charging device and drives the blade unit and the shaft when the vehicle moves, and the air exits from the vehicle from outlets. The charging unit includes two power generating units accommodated in two respective positioning units to prevent the outside air from entering into the positioning units. The power generating units are connected to the shaft and generate electric power to be used to the vehicle or to be stored in the battery units. The power generating unit is coupled to a processing unit which controls the power generating unit to stop or to transfer electric power to the battery unit.

Claims (11)

1. A vehicle charging assembly comprising:

at least one charging device, the charging device having a blade unit including multiple blades, the charging device including a shaft connected to a center of the blade unit, the blades being located along an outer surface of the shaft, at least one of two ends of the shaft is connected with a power generating unit, the power generating unit being coupled to a battery unit and a processing unit, the processing unit storing a pre-set current value, a detecting unit coupled to both of the processing unit and the battery unit, and the detecting unit detecting current associated with the battery unit and comparing the current associated with the battery unit to the pre-set current value; and

wherein when the current associated with the battery unit is less than the pre-set current value, the power generating unit is controlled by the processing unit to transmit electrical power to the battery unit; and wherein when the current associated with the battery unit reaches the pre-set current value, the power generating unit is controlled by the processing unit to stop transmitting electrical power to the battery unit.

2. The vehicle charging assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the shaft extends through the center of the blade unit.

3. The vehicle charging assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the blades extend radially from the blade unit.

4. The vehicle charging assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein there are two power generating units respectively connected to the two ends of the shaft, the shaft being coupled to two positioning units, the two power generating units are respectively accommodated in the two positioning units, and a path is formed between the blade unit and each of the two positioning units.

5. The vehicle charging assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the charging device is located in an interior of a vehicle.

6. The vehicle charging assembly as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the charging device is located in an interior of a top of the vehicle.

7. The vehicle charging assembly as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the charging device is located in an interior of a chassis of the vehicle.

8. The vehicle charging assembly as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the charging device is located in an interior of a hood of the vehicle.

9. The vehicle charging assembly as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the charging device is located in an interior of a door of the vehicle.
