ROTATABLE WHEEL DEFLECTOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240198940 titled 'ROTATABLE WHEEL DEFLECTOR

The abstract of the patent application describes a vehicle with a swing arm rotatably coupled to the vehicle frame, a track fixed relative to the swing arm, an anchor fixed relative to the vehicle frame, and a pyrotechnic actuator between the vehicle frame and the swing arm.

  • The swing arm is rotatably coupled to the vehicle frame at a rotatable connection.
  • The track curves along a curved path and is fixed relative to the swing arm.
  • The track is spaced from the rotatable connection and slideably engaged with the anchor.
  • The pyrotechnic actuator is positioned between the vehicle frame and the swing arm.
  • The technology allows for controlled movement of the swing arm along the curved path.

Potential Applications: - This technology could be used in off-road vehicles for enhanced suspension systems. - It could also be applied in amusement park rides for dynamic movements.

Problems Solved: - Provides a mechanism for controlled movement along a curved path. - Enhances the flexibility and agility of vehicles or rides.

Benefits: - Improved performance and maneuverability. - Enhanced safety and stability during movement.

Commercial Applications: - Off-road vehicles - Amusement park rides - Military vehicles

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the pyrotechnic actuator contribute to the controlled movement of the swing arm? 2. What are the potential safety implications of using this technology in vehicles or rides?
