  • Hydrogen-electric hybrid vehicle construction
    Patent number: 7036616
    Abstract: An electric vehicle which carries at least two passengers, which has at least three wheels, said passengers sitting in tandem and most of the batteries or fuel cell systems are located on the sides of the passengers. The vehicle has an aerodynamically shaped body with substantially reduced frontal area and drag. The body is lightweight, made from shock absorbing materials and structures, and has pressure-airless tires, which enhances the safety of the passengers. The vehicle also includes an advanced hydrogen-electric hybrid propulsion system with quick refueling from existing infrastructure and various additional optional features and systems.

  • Rechargeable hydrogen battery
    Patent number: 5712054
    Abstract: A very high gravimetric energy and power density hydrogen ion based rechargeable battery, which stores hydrogen and oxygen in lightweight porous carbon electrodes with metalized current collectors, and which are separated by ionically permeable polymeric membranes containing a liquid electrolyte. The hydrogen and oxygen are produced by electrolysis of water in the battery during charging and the battery cells are enclosed in lightweight, metalized polymer housings of honeycomb construction. The battery is also very highly rechargeable due to the use of carbon and hydrogen.

  • Lightweight, safe and damage resistant tire having honeycomb core
    Patent number: 5685926
    Abstract: A lightweight, filler core tire construction for automotive and other vehicles, having a flexible composite outer layer structure and an inner flexible honeycomb core with a radial relief and said honeycomb is bonded to said outer layer, eliminating thus fully or partially pressurized air from the tire and increasing the safety of driving, damage resistance, and minimizing servicing of the tire. The structures are preferably made of a polyurethane polymer and various fibers and do not require a split rim for mounting and dismounting said tire.
