Abstract: The mechanism recharges the batteries of electric powered vehicles while the vehicle is in motion. As a vehicle moves forward it creates an air flow that enters the air scoop of the mechanism. The air flow passes through the air reduction tunnel and turns the wind blades of the mechanism which turns a drive shaft. The drive shaft has two gears, one turns a governor, the other turns an alternator that creates electric current that passes through a voltage regulator and on to the batteries that drive the vehicles motor. Air velocity entering the mechanism varies by the forward speed of the vehicle. A governor maintains the desired rpms of the drive shaft by changing the pitch (angle) of the variable pitch wind blades. A drain hole is located in the bottom of the base for moisture taken in through the scoop.

Abstract: For convenient handling of a core member or a roll of material comprising a core member, a strap is attached to the core member. An intermediate section of the strap is preferably looped and extends outwardly of the core. The strap ends are either fixed to the outer surface of the core or through at least one opening in the core and underlie the winding, or contemplated winding. In the case of a tubular core, such ends cna be fixed to the core's inner surface of a plug element.
