Abstract
A wind operated electricity generating system for decreasing wind resistance of a moving vehicle and harvesting energy from the air encountered, comprises a box portion having a front opening, a rear opening and an inside compartment. When a vehicle is moving, air is funneled through the increasingly narrow inside compartment. The air is directed through a series of vanes to a plurality of blade of a multiple turbines that are thereby caused to rotate. The turbines are in turn mechanically connected to electromechanical generators, which generate electricity to be supplied to the vehicle. The electricity generated is stored in battery packs that may be utilized for propulsion of the vehicle. The electromechanical generator speed is controlled under a safe rotational speed by a braking mechanism attached to a shaft of the electromechanical generator.
