DESC:Detail description of the invention with reference to the drawing are given below:
1.Mini Solar Panel- Mini solar panels are small-scale photovoltaic devices designed to harness solar energy and convert it into electricity. These panels are typically compact and portable, making them ideal for various applications. With advancements in technology, mini solar panels have become increasingly efficient, allowing them to generate a significant amount of power relative to their size. They are commonly used in scenarios where space is limited or when you need a portable and convenient source of renewable energy. mini solar panels serve as educational tools, allowing individuals to learn about solar energy and its potential. They can be integrated into science projects or used as teaching aids to demonstrate the principles of solar power generation.
2.Led Chip -LED chips are electronic components that emit light directly. In short, an LED chip is a small LED panel. The LEDs are small and together they create a bright, intense light light image. One of the properties of a diode is that it conducts current on the one hand and blocks steam on the other. The color emitted by the LED depends on the semiconductor material it is made of and the voltage across the diode. The term RGB stands for red, green and blue. These are the colors that the RGB LED chip can mix to form a variety of colors.
3.Lithium-ion Rechargeable Battery- A lithium-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery that is charged and discharged by lithium ions moving between the negative (anode) and positive (cathode) electrodes. (Generally, batteries that can be charged and discharged repeatedly are called secondary batteries, whereas disposable batteries are called primary batteries.) Because lithium-ion batteries are suitable for storing high-capacity power, they are used in a wide range of applications, including consumer electronics such as smartphones and PCs, industrial robots, production equipment and automobiles.
4. Diode 4007 -A diode is a semiconductor device that essentially acts as a one-way switch for current. It allows current to flow easily in one direction, but severely restricts current from flowing in the opposite direction. The 1N4007 is the most used rectifier diode. It is commonly used in rectifier circuits, protection circuits and regulator circuits. The lead near to the silver line is the cathode and the other lead is anode, current is allowed to flow only from anode to cathode. The specifications of the 1N4007 diode are:
•Reverse Voltage: 1000V (peak)
•Forward Current: 1A
•Peak Forward Current: 30A
•Reverse leakage current: 5uA
Applications of 1N4007 Diode:
•Prevent reverse polarity problem.
•Current flow regulators
•Half Wave and Full Wave rectifiers
•Used as a protection device.
5.Charging Module with inbuilt BMS – It is used for charging batteries and therefore can be used in all those devices which run on battery. Few applications of this module include Portable electronics like laptops, chargers, USB Bus-Powered Chargers, power banks, etc. Safe charging and discharging of lithium cells. Battery management system (BMS) is technology dedicated to the oversight of a battery pack, which is an assembly of battery cells, electrically organized in a row x column matrix configuration to enable delivery of targeted range of voltage and current for a duration of time against expected load scenarios.
The oversight that a BMS provides usually includes:
•Monitoring the battery
•Providing battery protection
•Estimating the battery’s operational state
•Continually optimizing battery performance
•Reporting operational status to external devices
Here, the term “battery” implies the entire pack; however, the monitoring and control functions are specifically applied to individual cells, or groups of cells called modules in the overall battery pack assembly. Lithium-ion rechargeable cells have the highest energy density and are the standard choice for battery packs for many consumer products, from laptops to electric vehicles. While they perform superbly, they can be rather unforgiving if operated outside a generally tight safe operating area (SOA), with outcomes ranging from compromising the battery performance to outright dangerous consequences. The BMS certainly has a challenging job description, and its overall complexity and oversight outreach may span many disciplines such as electrical, digital, control, thermal, and hydraulic.
6.Self-Lock Push Button Switch- Self-lock switch normally means switch with built-in mechanical lock function. Press down the switch and then release, it will not fully bounce up because it is locked. You must press it again, then it will be unlocked and fully bounce up. This is the so-called Self-lock Switch. It is widely used to earlier televisions and monitors with function of directly completely power off.
7.Connecting Wire- A connecting wire allows travels the electric current from one point to another point without resistivity. Resistance of connecting wire should always be near zero. Copper wires have low resistance and are therefore suitable for low resistance. A connecting wire allows travels the electric current from one point to another point without resistivity. Resistance of connecting wire should always be near zero. Copper wires have low resistance and are therefore suitable for low resistance. Copper characteristics: Copper is metal, so it follows all characteristics of metals like- sonorous, ductility, malleability, and conductivity. Due to the excellent electrical conductivity of copper, it has a good contact surface, is ductile, and is inexpensive. The wires of this reddish metal could carry a higher electric current in each diameter than wires manufactured of other metals.
Whenever electric current flows across these wires, they drain fewer electric charges than that of other lines. Hence, Copper is mostly used in connecting wires.
8.Soldering Iron and Wire- A soldering iron is a hand tool used to heat solder, usually from an electrical supply at high temperatures above the melting point of the metal alloy. This allows for the solder to flow between the workpieces needing to be joined.
9.Hot Glue Gun and Glue sticks – Hot melt industrial hot glue and industrial glue guns can be used in furniture assembly to adhere small joints, mounting and trim. Large surface lamination on furniture and cabinetry is another application. In furniture assembly and woodworking, the nearly instant bonding strength of hot melt speeds up production.
10.Manual Voltage Regulator- The Manual Voltage Regulator or Stabilizer gives the user the flexibility to manually adjust the desired output voltages. We can supply and manufacture these Manual Voltage Regulator or Stabilizer from as low as 70 Volts to give you output up to 240 V AC.
11.Waste Plastic Bottle – Plastics that have the identification numbers 1,2,4 or 5 are what are considered safe as they are BPA-free. You can purchase any of our BPA-free water bottles right here.
12.Waste Plastic Board- Corrugated plastic or corkboard – also known under the trade names of Biplex, Cartonplast, Polyflute, Coroplast, FlutePlast, IntePro, Proplex, Correx, Twinplast, Corriflute and Corflute – refers to a wide range of extruded twin-wall plastic-sheet products produced from high-impact polypropylene resin
13.Waste Plastic Mug - Disposable plastic cups are often used for gatherings where it would be inconvenient to wash dishes afterward, due to factors such as location or number of guests. Plastic cups can be used for storing most liquids, but hot liquids may melt or warp the material. Plastic cups with a #5 on them can be placed in curbside recycling. Most paper to-go cups cannot be recycled or composted because they contain a plastic or wax coating to prevent leaks. ,CLAIMS:We Claim:
