WHEEL ASSY WITH BUILT-IN GENERATOR Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC B60K7/00 H02K35/02 

FIELD: electrical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to induction generators. Wheel unit with a built-in generator contains a rim, a disk and an axis of rotation. Generator comprises a bearing having an outer ring and an inner ring disposed around said rim within its width. Rotor of the generator rotates together with said outer ring and has a permanent magnet and a center of gravity displaced from said axis of rotation. Stator of the generator rotates together with said rim and forms a magnetic circuit with said rotor and induces an electromotive force by a constant or alternating magnetic flux in said magnetic circuit as the wheel assembly rotates.

EFFECT: complete autonomy of the power supply of the elements of the wheel assembly is achieved.
