     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     The following description provides an automotive wind powered generator system. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. 
     The present invention is an electrical re-charging station for hybrid or electric vehicles which contain a battery or electric cell encased in a secondary roof panel. The purpose is to have an electric producing generator-motor sets consistently re-charging the battery or cell while the vehicle is in motion or in “park” position when the wind travels through the respective cowling over the generator fan. A metal alloy fan blade ( FIG. 1 ) placed on the rotor shaft or hub of the generator will turn clockwise with the assistance of air velocity or wind, thus producing an electrical current. The benefit is that the generator system will produce an electric current that will increase the possible range of the vehicle if the vehicle is an electric powered vehicle. It will also charge enough voltage to reduce the amount for “At Home” charging from utilities for electric powered vehicles. 
     The components necessary to assemble this system consist of a number of generators  201  ( FIG. 10 ), a power control unit ( FIG. 4 ) and a secondary roof panel (see roof panel sections  101 ,  102  in  FIG. 6 ) located on the top of the existing primary roof (see roof  205  in  FIG. 7 ) of the automobile. Secondary roof panel  101 ,  102  is made of sheet metal. The secondary roof is divided in two sections, forward section A and rear section B. The forward section (section A) is bisected into left and right portions  101  A and  102  A extends aft of the front windshield approximately eight inches from the top of the windshield. The forward section  101  A,  102  A, is also raised approximately two inches to allow water (or fluids) to drain from side to side. The forward section is divided (bisected) from front to rear in a ‘V’ groove  105  to provide stabilization and preventing the metal panels to ‘waffle’ or distort. The forward section A is welded on each side and the ‘V’ groove  105  is bolted to the primary roof structure (roof  105 ,  FIG. 7 ) to solidify the complete stabilization and preventing detachment. The purpose of the forward section A is to create a wind tunnel environment. The aero velocity entering is increased by a ‘Venturi Effect’ and compression. 
     The rear or aft section (Section B) houses the Generators  201 . Secondary roof section B has a forward or front end  309  and a rear end  310 . See  FIG. 6 . The rear section is movable housing that lifts up for maintenance or removal of Generators. See  FIG. 7 . The points of attachment  106  are aft on the Section B and are hinge elements on each rear corner of the primary roof with mounting pins or swivel pins. See  FIG. 11  for the hinge pins. The front or forward end  309  of the Section B has two latches  210 , strap style, see  FIG. 8 , to lock into the forward section A. When locked, the Section B is generally aligned with Section A thereby permitting undisturbed air flow over the sections. On each lateral side of the back of the rear section B are stabilizer fins or rudders  220 ,  222  ( FIG. 6 ) to provide stabilization of vehicle in high wind or high speed of vehicle. See  FIG. 12 . At the top and rear  310  of section B is an adjustable spoiler  120  that incorporates a high mounted stop light  130 . See  FIG. 12 . These two components are essential to prevent a ‘lifting’, ‘wobbling’ or an unsafe operation of vehicle. Located on the back of section B are louvers  330 — FIG. 12  that raise or close due to aero velocity. Each louver is mounted with a pin on each side, creating a ‘swivel’ motion to open or close. Returning to  FIG. 7 , safety cables  140  are placed on each side from section B to primary roof to prevent blow off of the section B during high vehicle speeds. The Generators are mounted on the rear section of the primary roof. See  FIG. 10 . The generator brackets  150  ( FIGS. 9 and 10 ) retain the generators side to side and are bolted onto the primary roof. There is a bracket for the front of the generator and a bracket for the rear of each generator (see brackets  150   a ,  150   b  in  FIG. 10 ). Each generator is placed on its specific bracket and a saddle or horseshoe shaped clamp  150 , see  FIG. 9 , is attached on top of each generator. The clamps are bolted down on the front and rear bracket. The purpose of these clamps is to insure in collision impact or rollover that the generators remain in place. 
       FIG. 1  illustrates the fan blade on the front of generator unit, This fan blade is a five blade metal alloy or aluminum component. It is attached to the front of the generator and turns with aero velocity to create electrical to create electrical current. 
       FIG. 2  illustrates the flow chart, of the interconnection of components. From generator system to power control module to battery or cell. Also, the system is all integrated with a wiring harness. 
       FIG. 3  illustrates a breakdown diagram of a basic generator. This diagram encompasses all components of an “Internal Voltage Regulator” style generator. There are generators with an “External Voltage Regulator”. Depending upon usage of system, required voltage, and other variables, both styles could be used. The listing of the part numbers is on the “Generator Components Sheet”. The Generators used are modified for more amperage or voltage. The increased amount is based on the maximum voltage requirement or minimum voltage requirement of vehicle. The amount of generators on the vehicle will vary from model or car line depending on MVR. 
       FIG. 4  illustrates a basic Power Control Module. As many control modules of today, they are programmable. This module serves as a regulator, inverter, or emergency cut-off. The module controls the input of current to the battery or cell by regulating the output of the generators. This module controls the maximum voltage requirement. If the generators used for the system are not for a 12 Volt system, it also serves as an inverter to 12 Volts or more. The system can be operated directly from generator system to battery or cell, but in vehicles of the day, there are too many variables not to have sonic sort of control module. 
       FIG. 5  illustrates a basic battery or cell. There are many different electric cells, including lithium power cells. Some are called batteries; some are called electric power cells. 
       FIG. 6  illustrates an overhead view of vehicle. Section A and Section B are located on top of the primary roof. Section A serves as an intake and wind tunnel. Section B serves as a generator housing and enclosure. 
       FIG. 7  illustrates Section B as a moveable portion and generator housing. Cables retain section from blow off. This section pivots open for routine maintenance and repairs. 
       FIG. 8  illustrates the two latch mechanisms. These latches retain Section A to Section B for secure enclosure. 
       FIG. 9  illustrates the generator mounting bracket. The bracket is bolted down through the primary roof. Saddle clamps are used to secure generators to bracket. This insures non-movement in collision or roll-over. 
       FIG. 10  illustrates the generator system mounted on the primary roof. High voltage cables lead down to power control module or regulator. 
       FIG. 11  illustrates the hinge brackets  211  located on bottom and rear of Section B. A guide pin  212  and retainer  214  are used as a pivot point and can be removed to detach Section B from the primary roof. 
       FIG. 12  illustrates the rear view of Section B. The louvers arc horizontal from side to side. The spoiler and high mounted stop light are mounted on top of the louver section. 
     ADDITIONAL SPECIFICATIONS 
     The Wind Powered Generator System is a charge and recharging system for Hybrid or Electric vehicles. The system charges the battery or electric cell by air velocity or wind. The system charges while the vehicle is in motion or in a Park position. As the vehicle moves forward, the fan blade turns the generators rotor with the wind creating an electrical current.
