College students invent solar cars. Rainy days can be used as bicycles.
no gas and no oil, and a good car can only be paralyzed - - recently, a dozen college students at Southwestern University have invented such a solar car, which does not need to be added, and does not need to drink oil. Yesterday, college students proudly told reporters: "our car is very low-key, can be driven away by the sun, and when it rains, it can also be used as a bicycle."
10 thousand pluralistic car maker
yesterday, the fifth sports field of Southwestern University, a strange shape of the car attracted a number of students to look around. The car has a relatively simple configuration, looking like a car base and a propped sun umbrella, a solar car developed by more than 10 college students at the Southwestern University. The main structure of the car is the sun umbrella, the umbrella surface consists of four solar panels, the umbrella handle is a solar light automatic tracking system invented by the students, can track the sun at any time, the maximum absorption of solar energy. At the end of September 2008, the student science and technology innovation center of the college,
director of the invention team of the solar car and the College of engineering and technology, is preparing to develop a step car that does not need gasoline, diesel, natural gas and other energy, as a creative reality for college students. Check the project and get the school's R & D fund of 15 thousand yuan. "Every part is made by ourselves." Bai Chunfei, a member, said: "all the costs including wasted materials cost over 10 thousand yuan." The students have declared the invention and model design of the vehicle to be a national patent.
can be used as bicycle
"without gasoline, diesel and natural gas." He said that the vehicle weighs less than 50 kilograms, and it can absorb solar energy reserves and use it in rainy days. "Every time you store energy, you can drive forty or fifty kilometers. If the energy reserve is insufficient, it can be charged and used as a bicycle, so it is also called solar powered electric vehicle.
"this car has the advantages of simple operation, no driver, and a few minutes to learn." He Daijie introduced that the car had only one accelerator and brakes, and operated simply, similar to the kart in the park. "Mainly as a recreational scooter, suitable for campus, golf courses and so on."
Changan New Energy Company vice president Ren Yong pointed out that the car with solar energy as energy is currently being studied by professionals, and it is estimated that it is not widely available for 5 to 10 years. Therefore, He Daijie and other students invented solar car technology, it can not meet the market, can only be used in a small range.
