DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
The power generation and transmission device and method is able to be used to harness power such as solar and/or wind power and then transmit the power to a device inside a structure such as a house, dog house, a tent, a café umbrella, or a car.
FIG. 1 illustrates a diagram of a power system 100 in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The power system 100 includes an electric generator 102, such as one or more solar panels and/or one or more wind power generators 102′. The electric generator 102 couples to an energy receiving component 104. In some embodiments, the electric generator 102 is coupled to the energy receiving component 104 with a cable 114. The energy receiving component 104 is configured to move or rotate using the energy received from the electric generator 102. In some embodiments, the energy receiving component 104 is circular or any shape. The energy receiving component 104 is configured to couple to a renewable energy side 118 of a structure 116. The structure 116 is able to be a window, a wall, a ceiling, a cloth, a tent surface, an umbrella surface, and/or another structure or any physical barriers. An energy generating component 106 is configured to rotate in response to the energy receiving component 104. In some embodiments, the energy generating component 106 is circular or any shape. The energy generating component 106 is coupled to the structure 116 on an inner side or an energy using side 120. The energy receiving component 104 and the energy generating component 106 are coupled to the structure 116 by any means such as a suction cup, a vacuum, magnetic forces, or any other means.

In some embodiments, the generator 108 is coupled directly to the device 112 without the batteries 110. In some embodiments, the batteries 110 are coupled to an outlet 122 (e.g. a standard outlet similar to a wall outlet in a home). Then, the device 112 is able to couple to the outlet 122. This enables the device 112 to be a device with a standard plug.
FIG. 2 illustrates a front view of an energy receiving component 104 (FIG. 1) according to some embodiments. The energy receiving component 104 includes a disc structure 200 (or another structure) and one or more magnets 202 (e.g. 4 or 8). The magnets 202 are able to be any kind of magnets, such as neodymium discs. In some embodiments, the magnets are configured in an alternating polarity configuration. In some embodiments, the magnets are configured in a same polarity configuration. As such, the energy generating component 106 has the same or similar configuration as the energy receiving component 104. In some embodiments, the magnets are able to be in any configurations so long as the magnets in the energy receiving component 104 are able to couple to and/or drive a movement of the energy generating component 106. A person of ordinary skill in the art would appreciate any patterns, materials, forces of the magnets are applicable with the power system 100, so that the efficiency/rate of the power conversion, power transmission, and power utilization by the energy generating device 106 are able to be controlled.
FIG. 3 illustrates a diagram of a power system 300 in accordance with some embodiments of the present invention. The power system 300 includes an electric generator 102 such as one or more solar panels and/or one or more wind power generators. The electric generator 102 couples to an energy receiving component 104. In some embodiments, the electric generator 102 is coupled to the energy receiving component 104 with a cable 114. The energy receiving component 104 is configured to rotate using the energy received from the electric generator 102. In some embodiments, the energy receiving component comprises an electric motor. In some embodiments, the energy receiving component 104 is circular or any shape. The energy receiving component 104 is configured to couple to an outer side of a structure 116 such as a window, a wall, a ceiling, umbrella, tent, gazebo, hat, cap, cloth, and/or another structure. A device 302 such as a fan is configured to rotate in response to the energy receiving component 104. The device 302 is coupled to the structure 116 on an inner side. The energy receiving component 104 and the device 302 are configured with an implementation to enable the energy receiving component 104 to cause the device 302 to rotate. In some embodiments, the implementation includes one or more magnets. Exemplary numbers of magnets on each of the energy receiving component 104 and the device 302 include 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and/or more magnets. Any positioning of the magnets is possible. In some embodiments, the magnets are positioned to maximize the efficiency of the energy transfer from the energy receiving component 104 to the device 302. In some embodiments, the device 302 includes a fan 306, a light 308, an air filter or any combination thereof.
In some embodiments, the device 302 is able to be a power generation device. For example, the device 302 comprises a power generator 304. The power generator 304 is able to be a traditional power generator, which converts the kinetic energy (from the rotation of the device 302 induced by the magnetic coupling from the device 104) to electric energy using the principle of moving a circuit in a magnetic field generating electric current.
In some embodiments, the device 302 is able to be any of various instantly replaceable appliances. For example, the device 302 is able to be a fan 306 that magnetically couples to the movement driven device 104, so the device 104 and device 302 immediately attach (magnetic attraction) to the opposite sides of the media 116, such as a glass window. When other applications are thought to be used, the fan 306 can be instantly removed and replaced with the generator 304. A person of ordinary skill in the art would appreciate that the power generating function is optional, so the fan 312 is able to be a mechanical fan magnetically couple with the movement driven device 104. The fan 312 is able to use rotating axis to drive the fan portion 314 without having the function or components of power generating.
In some embodiments, the device 302 is able to comprise a power generator coupled to an electricity or power storage device, which is able to be the power source for various home appliances. Accordingly, the power system 300 forms a solar energy (renewable energy) power station. The power station is able to store energy whenever the renewable energy receiver 102 receives energy and subsequently convert to kinetic energy moving power generating device 302 to generate energy. The energy generated is able to be used at anytime even at the time the renewable energy does not exist. For example, the renewable energy receiving device 102 is able to receive solar energy when the sun light exists or wind power when wind exists; nonetheless, the electricity generated can be pre-stored at a rechargeable battery and be used at night or when no wind exists. Accordingly, above describes a method of time-delay usage of the renewable energy.
In some embodiments, the power system 300 is able to include a fan for an animal house. For example, a dog house. The power system 300 comprises a solar panel attached to the energy receiving device 104. Alternatively, the power system 300 couples to the energy receiving device 104 through a power line. The solar panel 102 and energy receiving device 104 are outside of the dog house. The power system 300 comprises a fan 306 inside the dog house. Accordingly, the power system 300 is able to facilitate air circulation of the dog house. Having the power system 300 with the fan, the smell of the dog house can be reduced or eliminated.
FIG. 4 illustrates a flowchart of a method of using the power system according to some embodiments. In the step 400, energy is converted by a solar device and/or wind device. In the step 402, the energy rotates an energy receiving component. In the step 404, the energy receiving component rotates an energy generating or utilizing component, such as a motor or a fan. In the step 406, the energy generating component rotates a generator component to generate power or moves a mechanical device, such as a fan, to utilize the power. In the step 408, the power generated by the generator is stored in a battery or used to move a fan. In the step 410, a device is powered, for example, by the battery. In some embodiments, some of the steps are skipped. For example, in a system where there is no battery, the step 408 is skipped and the power goes directly to the device.
FIG. 5 illustrates a diagram of a power system 500 according to some embodiments. A mirror 502 is used to collect sunlight which is transferred via an optical fiber 504. The optical fiber is coupled to a first collector 506 which directs the sunlight through a window 514 to a second collector 508. The second collector 508 directs the light to a solar panel 510. The solar panel 510 is coupled to a device 512 such as a fan or coffee pot. In some embodiments, the solar panel is comprised of a plant matter. In some embodiments, the device 512 is able to have replaceable covers/skins.
FIG. 6 illustrates a solar-power air device 600 in accordance with some embodiments of the present application. The solar-power air device 600 comprises the functions of an air circulator and air refresher. The device 600 comprises an energy receiving device 604. The energy receiving device 604 couples to the renewable energy receiving device 102 (FIG. 1), such as a solar panel. The energy receiving device 604 can contain a motor, which is driven by the power received by the renewable energy receiving device 102 (FIG. 1). The motor's rotational motion carries the magnets 602 on the energy receiving device 604 to move in a rotational manner. The magnets 602 on the energy receiving device 604 magnetically couple to the magnets 602 on the generator device 606, and the rotational movements of the magnets 602 on the device 604 couple to the magnets 602 on the generator device 606 making the device move in a rotational manner. In some embodiments, the generator device 606 is able to be a motor containing magnets and wires. The rotational movement of the generator device 606 generates electricity and output through power line 608. In some embodiments, the generator device 606 is able to be enclosed in a box 610 having a cover. The cover comprises holes 614. Further, the cover is able to receive the box 610. Additionally, the box 612 can include air-refresher or perfume box 618. The box 610 is able to contain liquid or solid fragrance and/or water. When the fan 616 is functioning, the fan 616 is able to blow the air-refresher or perfume in the box 610 through the holes 614 to a space desired, such as user's office. The fan 616 is able to be designed to be an effective air circulator, which can facilitate the air circulation of the user's office.
FIG. 7 illustrates a view of a fan-umbrella system 700 according to some embodiments. The fan-umbrella system 700 includes an umbrella 702 and a solar fan 704 coupled to the umbrella 702. In some embodiments, the umbrella 702 is an unmodified umbrella so that the solar fan 704 is able to be used with any umbrella. In some embodiments, the umbrella is specifically designed to couple with the solar fan 704. The solar fan 704 includes a first shell 706 and a second shell 708 which couple to each other with a portion of the umbrella 702 sandwiched between. The first shell 706 and the second shell 708 couple in any manner, such as with magnets contained in each shell. The first shell 706 includes a solar panel 710 and/or a wind device to receive solar energy and/or wind energy. The second shell 708 includes a fan propeller 712. The solar panel 710 is coupled to rotating device 714 which is coupled to a first set of rotatable magnets 716. The fan propeller 712 is coupled to a second set of rotatable magnets 718. As the solar panel 710 receives energy and converts the energy, the rotating device 714 rotates which causes the first set of magnets 716 to rotate which causes the second set of magnets 718 to rotate as long as they are within an appropriate distance from each other (e.g. a few centimeters apart with the umbrella material in between, such as 1-5 cm). The second set of magnets 718 rotating causes the fan propeller 712 to rotate which generates a cool breeze for someone under or near the umbrella. In some embodiments, instead of coupling to an umbrella 702, the solar fan 704 is able to be coupled to any object, for example, an awning and/or a camping tent. In some embodiments, the solar fan 704 includes a label 720 such as an advertisement. In some embodiments, the solar fan 704 includes a replaceable shell 722. The replaceable shell 722 is able to include advertisements, sports logos and any other text or picture representation. In alternative embodiments, the replaceable shell 722 is molded into a shape of a merchandise, such as a beer can or bottle, a baseball, a basketball, a football, a tennis ball, or a golf ball. For example, the first shell 706 and second shell 708 form a coffee cup or beer can or bottle when they are placed together. The first shell 706 is able to be placed at the side capable of receiving solar energy and the second shell 708 is able to be placed at the side where a fan is needed. For example, the first shell 706 is able to be placed on top of a café umbrella, the second shell 708 is able to be placed on the inside of the café umbrella, and the umbrella 702 is placed between the first shell 706 and the second shell 708. In some embodiments, one or more batteries are utilized to store energy for later use.
FIG. 8 illustrates a solar fan system 800 according to some embodiments. The solar fan system 800 is able to comprise a body 802. The body 802 of the solar fan system 800 is able to contain a solar panel 804 and fan 806. The body 802 is able to contain a skin 808 on top of the core 810. The skin 808 is able to be made from any material, such as plastic or leather so long as it provides a look of product desired, such as a baseball. The skin 808 is able to enclose a core 810, which can be a hard plastic case. The body 802 is able to contain a top part 826 and bottom part 828. The top part is able to contain a motor 812, which is able to drive a disk 814 to move in a rotational manner. The disk 814 is able to comprise magnets 816, which couples to the magnets 822 on the disk 818 on the bottom part 828, so that the disk 814 is able to synchronize in a rotational movement with the disk 818. The bottom part 828 is able to comprise the disk 818 with the magnets 822. The disk 818 can drive a fan to work with a mechanical force moving in a rotational manner.
In some embodiments, the top part 826 is able to be secured with the bottom part 828 in various methods. For example, the top part 826 is able to contain magnets 830 having magnetic forces to attract the magnets 824 in the bottom part, so that the top part 826 is able to be instantly attachable and detachable from the bottom part 828. In such case, the solar device 800 is able to be instantly attached to and detached from the host, such as the garden umbrella and tents.
FIG. 9 illustrates examples of an advertising device according to some embodiments. In some embodiments, the advertising device 900 includes a first component 902 and a second component 904 which are able to approximately couple to each other using a coupling mechanism 906. For example, the first component 902 is positioned on the upper side of an umbrella and the second component 904 is positioned on the under-side of the umbrella. Although the first component 902 and the second component 904 may not physically touch, through the use of the coupling mechanism 906, they are able to be secured on the umbrella. The coupling mechanism 906 is able to be any coupling mechanism, such as magnets, a hook and loop structure (e.g., VelcroTM, tape, and/or any other mechanism. In some embodiments, the coupling mechanism 906 also enables the first component 902 and the second component 904 to be removed and placed on any number of objects.

The shape of the advertising device 900 is able to be any shape. In some embodiments, the shape is a sports item such as a baseball, basketball, football or a food item such as a coffee cup. The advertising device is able to provide additional advertising space to inform potential customers. The first component 902 and the second component 904 are able to stand alone on the umbrella without the need of coupling with each other. Either the first component 902, the second component 904, or both are able to couple to the umbrella using the coupling mechanism described above, such as VelcroTM
FIG. 10 illustrates a flowchart of a method of advertising using a device according to some embodiments. In the step 1002, a representation, such as an advertisement, is placed on the device. The representation is able to be any representation such as a logo, text, graphics and/or anything to convey a message. The representation is able to be placed on the device by a manufacturer or another entity. The step 1002 is able to be skipped if the device already has the representation. In the step 1004, the device is placed on an object such as an umbrella, an awning, a table, a car, a window and/or any other object. In some embodiments, the method of placing the device on the object is by using the implementations described herein, for example, by placing one component on one side of the object and the other component on the other side of the object, and the two components approximately coupling together through the use of magnets. In some embodiments, other implementations are able to be used to place the device on the object. Once the object is placed accordingly, the representation is available for others to see. For example, at a coffee shop with umbrella tables, solar fans with logos of the shop are able to be placed on the umbrellas to provide a cool breeze and advertising for the shop. Since the devices are easily removable, they are able to be moved as desired. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the representation is able to be modified easily (e.g. replacing a shell of the device), to enable easy advertisement space selling. The device is able to be any device, such as the solar fan. In some embodiments, additional or fewer steps are able to be included.
FIG. 11 illustrates a cross-sectional view of a wind turbine according to some embodiments. The wind turbine 1100 includes a propeller 1102, a first set of magnets 1104, a second set of magnets 1106, an energy generating component 1108 and a casing 1110. The first set of magnets 1104 are coupled to or within the propeller 1102. The first set of magnets 1104 rotate as the propeller 1102 rotates from wind. As the first set of magnets 1104 rotate, they cause the second set of magnets 1106 to rotate which, in turn, cause the energy generating component 1108 (or at least an aspect of the energy generating component 1108) to rotate and generate energy similar to the energy generating component described above. Since the second set of magnets 1106 and the energy generating component 1108 are contained within the casing 1110, they are protected from the weather and other harmful elements. The energy generated is able to be transferred to any device to utilize the energy such as a battery, a power grid and/or any other device.
The solar fan and other devices described herein offer an additional safety feature compared to standard fans since there is a gap between the two components of the solar fan. If a child places his hand in the fan, there is no bar directly connected to a motor that would keep the fan moving even with the child's hand there. Instead, the magnetic coupling would be interrupted and the fan would stop.
FIG. 12 illustrates a view of a remote charger system according to some embodiments. A remote charger 1200 operates similar to the power generator described above. The remote charger 1200 includes a set of magnets 1202 that rotate. The magnets 1202 cause a power generator 1204, containing a second set of magnets 1206, in a remote device 1210 to generate electricity which is able to be stored, for example, in a battery 1208. For example, a remote charger with rotating magnets is placed on or near a person's chest and contained within the person is a pacemaker with an electricity generator and a battery. The remote charger is able to charge the pacemaker's battery without invasively affecting the person, thus saving the person from surgery.

In some embodiments, the cutting mechanism 1306 and the receiving aperture 1310 couple so that that the first component 1302 and the second component 1304 couple together. The cutting mechanism 1306 is configured to cut a hole or slit in an object 1322 to enable the device 1300 to be secured on the object 1322. The object 1322 is able to be an object such as an umbrella, awning, tent or any other object. In some embodiments, the cutting mechanism 1306 is or includes a conducting material 1308. The conducting material 1308 of the cutting mechanism 1306 is configured to couple with a conducting receiver 1312. The conducting material 1308 and conducting receiver 1312 enable energy to be transferred from an energy converting device 1318 such as a solar panel, wind turbine or turbine. In some embodiments, the energy is stored in a battery 1314. The energy is used to power an output device 1316 such as a light (e.g. LED), a fan or any other output device. The device 1300 is able to include a representation such as advertising.
As described above, the device 1300 (FIG. 13) includes a cutting mechanism 1306 which enables the device 1300 to be coupled to an umbrella 1300 by generating a small hole and the first component 1302 and the second component 1304 are able to couple together through. Although an umbrella is shown, any object is able to be used.
FIG. 14 illustrates a device including a securing mechanism positioned on an umbrella 1400 with an aperture according to some embodiments. In some embodiments, the umbrella 1400 includes an aperture 1402 such as a grommet with a hole in it. Where the umbrella 1400 includes the aperture 1402, a device 1404 (similar to the device 1300) does not need to include a cutter mechanism 1306 (FIG. 13). Instead the protrusion is able to be without a blade or sharp edge.
FIG. 15 illustrates an article of clothing system according to some embodiments. The article of clothing system 1500 includes an article of clothing 1502 (e.g. a hat, jacket, shirt, pants, shoe/sneaker, sandal, underwear, bra, goggles or any other article of clothing. Coupled to the article of clothing 1502 is a solar panel 1504, particularly at the top of the article of clothing 1502. A battery 1506 is included with the article of clothing 1502 as well.

FIG. 16 illustrates an energy generating system according to some embodiments. The solar panel 1602 can receive solar or renewable energy to drive a movement of a motor 1604. The motor 1604 is able to drive a movement of the plate 1610 having magnets 1606, so that the magnets are rotating in a rotational manner. The lower body 1612 is able to contain coils 1608. The coils 1608 are able to connect to electric wires 1614, which connects to an energy usage or storage device 1616. When the solar panel 1602 receives renewable energy, the energy drives the movement of motor 1606, which drives the movement of plate 1610 and the magnets 1606. The lower body 1612 and coils 1608 are relatively stationary. Thus, the moving of rotating magnets 1606 induces the stationary coil 1608 to generate electricity.
The shape of the devices or aspects of the devices described herein is able to be any shape. In some embodiments, the shape is a sports item such as a baseball, basketball, football or a food item such as a coffee cup.
To utilize the power generation and transmission device and method, a solar panel is positioned to receive sunlight, and an energy receiving component is positioned on an outer surface of a structure such as a window. An energy generating component is positioned on an inner surface of the structure. A generator, a battery and a device are coupled to the energy generating component, so that the device is able to be powered using the solar panel. Once the user sets up the system, the user uses the device as any standard operated device. For example, if the device is a fan, the user switches an on/off switch to turn the device on/off.
In operation, the power generation and transmission device and method enable a device to be used without coupling the device to a standard power grid. Additionally, the system is able to function without cables or wires going through a structure which limits cost and difficulty of installation. Furthermore, a device such as a fan using the power generation and transmission device is able to be low or no noise. The power and transmission device converts energy in various ways such as from renewable energy to kinetic energy.
The present invention has been described in terms of specific embodiments incorporating details to facilitate the understanding of principles of construction and operation of the invention. Such reference herein to specific embodiments and details thereof is not intended to limit the scope of the claims appended hereto. It will be readily apparent to one skilled in the art that other various modifications may be made in the embodiment chosen for illustration without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the claims.
