LIFT-GENERATING SYSTEM AND BOAT FITTED WITH SUCH A SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240051648 titled 'LIFT-GENERATING SYSTEM AND BOAT FITTED WITH SUCH A SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The lift-generating system described in the patent application includes a wing with at least one suction opening that connects the exterior and interior of the wing. The wing is mounted on a support that allows it to pivot around an axis parallel to the wing's axis. The system also includes a suction device, which is located outside the wing and connected to the interior of the wing. The suction device has a fan that draws air through the suction opening of the wing and discharges it through an outlet. The fan consists of an impeller surrounded by a shroud, which guides the discharged air through a duct. The impeller is rotated by a motor. The outlet of the shroud is orthogonal to the axis of the impeller.

  • The lift-generating system includes a wing with suction openings and a suction device connected to the interior of the wing.
  • The suction device has a fan that draws air through the suction openings and discharges it through an outlet.
  • The fan consists of an impeller surrounded by a shroud, which guides the discharged air through a duct.
  • The impeller is rotated by a motor.
  • The lift-generating system can be used for boats.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • This lift-generating system can be used in boats to provide additional lift, improving their performance and stability.
  • It can also be used in other watercraft, such as jet skis or hovercrafts, to enhance their maneuverability and control.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The lift-generating system solves the problem of insufficient lift in boats and other watercraft, allowing them to operate more efficiently and effectively.
  • It also addresses the issue of stability and control, providing a means to adjust the lift generated by the wing.

Benefits of this technology:

  • The lift-generating system improves the performance and efficiency of boats and other watercraft, allowing them to travel faster and consume less fuel.
  • It enhances maneuverability and control, making it easier for operators to navigate and handle the watercraft.
  • The system can be adjusted to provide the desired amount of lift, allowing for customization based on specific needs and conditions.


Original Abstract Submitted

the lift-generating system () includes a wing () having at least one suction opening () designed to establish a connection between the exterior of the wing and the interior () of the wing (); and a suction device, a support () on which the wing () is mounted so as to be able to pivot about an axis substantially parallel to the axis (a). the suction device includes a fan () located outside the wing () and fluidically connected to the interior () of the wing () so as to draw air through the at least one suction opening () of the wing, and discharge the drawn-in air through an outlet of the fan (). the fan () includes an impeller () surrounded by a shroud () which defines, around the impeller, a duct that serves to guide the air discharged by the impeller, and a motor for rotating the impeller () about an axis substantially parallel to the axis (a) of the wing. the shroud () of the fan () has an outlet () of which the axis (a) is substantially orthogonal to the axis (a) of the impeller () of the fan. the lift-generating system can be provided for a boat.
