Title:
TRANSFORMABLE VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2001/023197
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The invention relates to a transformable vehicle (TrV) which is an aerodyne, i.e. it can also be used as a ground transportation means (water transportation means). The inventive vehicle has half-wings which are foldable along the body, a chassis with driving and steering wheels, a propeller and an empennage. An engine drives the propeller and the wheels. The centre of gravity of the TrV is located in the area of centering in flight and in the area that ensures the characteristics of adherence and stability when the TrV stands on the chassis. During take-off, the pilot increases the angle of attack of the wing, which makes it possible for the TrV to take off. Retractable hydrodynamic wings are used on water. The advantage of the TrV is that it can be transformed very quickly from one vehicle into another; moreover, each variant of the vehicle is sufficiently advanced, on the ground as well as in the air.
