Abstract

A great amount of mechanical energy in modern vehicles and in some other machines is dissipated by the brakes during deceleration. Recuperation of this energy promises great economical advantage. A band mechanism and flywheel allows the recovery of mechanical energy with great efficiency. The main kinematic and dynamic characteristics of the ideal mechanism, and of the actual mechanism with its dissipation of energy, show that this is a mechanism suitable for use in commercial vehicles, excavators and similar machines.
