VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240198782 titled 'VEHICLE

The abstract describes a patent application for a vehicle designed to increase the maximum drive torque transmitted from an engine to the drive wheels. The vehicle includes an input member for receiving torque from the engine, an output member connected to the drive wheels, a reaction mechanism for establishing a reaction torque, and a differential mechanism. A torque converter is positioned between the input member and the output member.

  • The vehicle is designed to enhance the drive torque output from the engine to the drive wheels.
  • It includes an input member, output member, reaction mechanism, and a differential mechanism.
  • A torque converter is integrated into the system to optimize torque transmission.
  • The differential mechanism consists of input, output, and reaction elements.
  • The innovation aims to improve the overall performance and efficiency of the vehicle.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be applied in high-performance vehicles to enhance acceleration and overall driving experience. - It can also be utilized in off-road vehicles to improve traction and maneuverability in challenging terrains.

Problems Solved: - Enhances the maximum drive torque output from the engine. - Improves overall vehicle performance and efficiency. - Optimizes torque transmission to the drive wheels.

Benefits: - Increased drive torque for better acceleration. - Enhanced vehicle performance and efficiency. - Improved traction and maneuverability in various driving conditions.

Commercial Applications: - High-performance sports cars - Off-road vehicles - Commercial trucks and heavy-duty vehicles

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the differential mechanism contribute to increasing drive torque? 2. What are the potential implications of using a torque converter in this system?


Original Abstract Submitted

a vehicle designed to increase a maximum drive torque transmitted from an engine to drive wheels. the vehicle comprises: an input member to which a torque is delivered from the engine; an output member connected to drive wheels; a reaction mechanism that establishes a reaction torque; and a differential mechanism. a differential mechanism comprises: an input element connected to the input member; an output element connected to the output member; and a reaction element connected to the reaction mechanism. a torque converter is arranged between the input member and the output member.
