The Winkle
TM
Solar Pedal Powered Electric Vehicle
Business Proposal
Powered by an electric motor and assisted by foot pedal power. Solar
cells are used to charge a battery and spin a gyroscope to produce a
small null gravity effect, and provide more power to the system, as is
pedal power. The basic vehicle is shown above. It will be a four
wheeled bicycle type vehicle.
The Winkle has pedal power for charging the battery, though the
vehicle will be electric powered. (If necessary, the Winkle can be
powered by pedal alone.) According to a study done by KRC Research 38%
of l5,000 people interviewed wanted more exercise. Using the Winkle
provides a good time for exercise. Pedaling can be done while
stationary or moving. It can be done at any capacity and a clearly
visible dashboard meter will show the generating capacity from
pedaling.
Meters will also show solar charging rate, and stored power available
in battery, or gyroscope, if that is used.
A
key feature of this vehicle, not found on any other vehicle using
pedal power to generate electricity, is that pedaling is independent
of the electric power, which drives the vehicle.
1.)
While moving - constantly, at a pedal speed desired by the driver
and/or passenger.
2.)
Stopped - momentarily, stopping at traffic lights, picking up
passengers, parked for scenic gazing, or no pedaling at all.
The vehicle will provide an emergency source of auxiliary power in the
case of a power outage. Small, but enough to light a few lights, run a
refrigerator, radio, and possible small cooking operation.
The Winkle will use solar panels based on nanotechnology. They are
lighter and more efficient than previous photovoltaic panels. Solar
panel will operate 5-10 hours per day, whereas the Winkle will
probably only be used one or two hours per day.
A
smaller pancake motor will serve as a generator for the pedal power,
which will also be designed to move the vehicle, although slower, by
pedal power alone.
New methods of producing hydrogen from water are constantly being
developed. If such technology is sufficiently developed, the Winkle
could use a small unit to produce hydrogen for use in a small fuel
cell. The system could operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to
charge the battery continuously.
The Winkle will also be designed to accommodate alternative energy
sources being developed such as zero point energy, aether energy, spin
radiation energy, etc…
This means a smaller battery can be used, depending on how much the
vehicle is driven.
Of
course, power from the household power lines will also be used as
needed. The vehicle will be modularly designed so that the user can
easily replace the solar panel, fuel cell, gyroscope, battery and/or
remove batteries as new types are developed. It is anticipated that
this vehicle will evolve over time to be an efficient, all weather,
non-polluting, day or night vehicle which will not need any power from
household current sources.
Principles
Buryl
Payne, Ph. D., educated as a physicist and psychologist, has a long
history of inventing new products. He has a knack for making
complicated things simple. He came up with the idea for General Mills
Granola Bar. He designed, marketed, and patented the first commercial
biofeedback company, and designed low cost pulsed magnetic field
generators, now manufactured by Turbomagnetics. He has discovered
another force, currently in its infancy, which he calls the spin
force. He is the author of six books and many articles.

Deyess Payne is a mechanical genius who will help design the practical
nuts and bolts vehicle. He has the ability to create new innovations
that are elegantly simple.
Business Manufacturing
Manager Wanted
For
the Winkle
Manager’s Responsibilities.
To
procure the components for the Winkle. These may be imported or local.
They would include pancake motors from
England,
fuel cells from California, rechargeable batteries, and flexible solar
panels. Manufacturing of some components might best be done in China.
Overseeing manufacturing and marketing in the
U.S.
and over seas, which means hiring support personnel.
The
Manager’s responsibilities also would include handling the necessary
paper work involved in setting up a corporation, etc.
It’s
a big job!
