A MOTOR VEHICLE WITH ROLLING FORECARRIAGE AND REAR CARRIAGE WITH TWO DRIVING WHEELS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240043086 titled 'A MOTOR VEHICLE WITH ROLLING FORECARRIAGE AND REAR CARRIAGE WITH TWO DRIVING WHEELS

Simplified Explanation

The motor vehicle described in the patent application consists of a rolling forecarriage and a non-rolling rear carriage. These two carriages are connected by a linkage system, which includes a four-bar linkage defining a roll axis that remains fixed on the supporting surface of the vehicle during a roll movement.

  • The motor vehicle has a rolling forecarriage and a non-rolling rear carriage.
  • The forecarriage and rear carriage are connected by a linkage system.
  • The linkage system includes a four-bar linkage that defines a fixed roll axis.
  • The roll axis remains in a fixed position on the supporting surface of the vehicle during a roll movement.

Potential Applications:

  • This technology could be applied in the design of off-road vehicles to improve stability and maneuverability.
  • It could also be used in the development of autonomous vehicles to enhance their ability to navigate uneven terrains.

Problems Solved:

  • The invention solves the problem of instability and lack of control during roll movements in motor vehicles.
  • It addresses the issue of maintaining a fixed roll axis on the supporting surface, ensuring stability and safety.

Benefits:

  • Improved stability and control during roll movements.
  • Enhanced maneuverability on uneven surfaces.
  • Increased safety for the driver and passengers.
  • Potential for application in various vehicle types, including off-road vehicles and autonomous vehicles.
