MOVABLE SPOILER DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240109610 titled 'MOVABLE SPOILER DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a movable spoiler device for vehicles, which includes a fixed part, a movable part, an actuator, a rotating frame, a connecting member, and a locking member. The device allows the movable part to move between a storage position and a deployed position, driven by the actuator and rotating frame.
- Fixed part fixed on the body of a vehicle
- Movable part moves between storage and deployed positions
- Actuator drives the movable part in a front-rear direction
- Rotating frame rotates synchronously with the actuator
- Connecting member links the rotating frame and the movable part
- Locking member applies force to the actuator and is locked on the rotating frame
- Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in high-performance vehicles, racing cars, and sports cars to improve aerodynamics and stability at high speeds.
- Problems Solved
The movable spoiler device helps enhance the vehicle's performance by adjusting the airflow and downforce, providing better handling and control, especially during high-speed driving.
- Benefits
The device offers improved aerodynamics, stability, and control, enhancing the overall performance and driving experience of the vehicle.
- Potential Commercial Applications
"Enhancing Vehicle Performance with Movable Spoiler Devices"
- Possible Prior Art
Prior art may include patents or designs related to adjustable spoilers, aerodynamic devices, or vehicle stability systems.
- Unanswered Questions
- How does the movable spoiler device impact fuel efficiency?
The article does not address the specific impact of the movable spoiler device on fuel efficiency. Further research or testing may be needed to determine this aspect.
- Are there any safety concerns associated with the movable spoiler device?
The safety implications of the movable spoiler device are not discussed in the article. It would be essential to investigate any potential safety risks or considerations when implementing this technology in vehicles.
Original Abstract Submitted
a movable spoiler device is provided. the movable spoiler device includes: a fixed part, fixed on a body of a vehicle; a movable part, movable between a storage position and a deployed position; an actuator, disposed on the fixed part and drives the movable part to move in a front-rear direction; a rotating frame, connected to the actuator and rotates synchronously with the actuator; a connecting member, connected to the rotating frame and the movable part; and a locking member, disposed between the actuator and the rotating frame, applies force to the actuator through an elastic member, and is locked on the rotating frame, wherein, when the movable part is in the deployed position and is subjected to a load applied from the rear, the rotating frame is rotated by pushing the locking member against the elastic member to release the fitting of the locking member.
