Abstract

The sports vehicle includes a chassis that has a two parts (1,2), with a part (7) of a second curved part (2) that rotates or slides relative to a first part (1), during balancing or suspension movement. The chassis parts move relative to a pivot axis (3), that is located sufficiently high and with a degree of inclination so that weight, e.g. of the rider and engine, below the axis is greater than the weight above it.

Description

La présente invention est destinée aux nombreuses personnes pour qui laThe present invention is intended for many people for whom the

vie est une quête de sensations etlife is a quest for sensations and

pour lesquelles la plus courante se traduit par la conduite d'un véhicule.  the most common of which is driving a vehicle.

Certaines de ces personnes rêvent de piloter une formule 1 et d'autres de puissantes motos.  Some of these people dream of riding a Formula 1 and others of powerful motorcycles.

Pour les motards, le plaisir de plonger dans un virage en se couchant et avoir la possibilité d'accélérer franchement pour un dépassement est indispensable à leur besoin de se sentir plus libre. Toutefois. le risque de chuter ou de subir des conditions climatiques déplorables est un inconvénient majeur.  For bikers, the pleasure of diving into a bend while lying down and having the possibility of accelerating frankly for overtaking is essential to their need to feel more free. However. the risk of falling or experiencing deplorable climatic conditions is a major drawback.

Le véhicule ici décrit a donc pour but de donner à ces personnes la possibilité de s 'asseoir dans un habitacle ressemblant à celui d'une formule 1 mais avec la possibilité de se coucher dans un virage comme 10 une moto.  The vehicle described here therefore aims to give these people the possibility of sitting in a passenger compartment resembling that of a Formula 1 but with the possibility of lying in a bend like a motorcycle.

Mais ce véhicule présente la présente la caractéristique technique de se relever tout seul.  But this vehicle has the technical characteristic of standing up on its own.

Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention.  The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention.

La figure I présente un châssis ou cadre pour un véhicule à trois roues.  Figure I shows a chassis or frame for a three-wheeled vehicle.

Ce châssis coulisse en deux parties(l et 2), la partie 1 du châssis coulisse ou roule par rapport à la partie 2 15 en décrivant un arc de cercle, selon un mouvement de balancier et ceci par rapport à un axe de pivot(3).  This chassis slides in two parts (l and 2), part 1 of the chassis slides or rolls with respect to part 2 15 by describing an arc of a circle, according to a pendulum movement and this with respect to a pivot axis (3 ).

La partie(7) de la partie(2) est incurvée, ce qui nous démontre qu'en ordre de route, le poids qui se trouve sous l'axe(3) est supérieur à celui qui se trouve au dessus, le poids étant ici représenté par le moteur(4) et le pilote(5). Egalement, cet axe de pivot(3) nous indique, de par son prolongement, qu'il est incliné de façon à ce qu'il 20 soit dans la ligne de mire de la base d'appui au sol de la roue avant(6), de telle manière que le poids étant inférieur au dessus de l'axe de pivot(3), de par son principe de fonctionnement, la partie du cadre 1 ne peut  Part (7) of part (2) is curved, which shows us that in driving order, the weight which is under the axis (3) is greater than that which is above, the weight being here represented by the motor (4) and the pilot (5). Also, this pivot axis (3) indicates to us, by its extension, that it is inclined so that it is in the line of sight of the ground support base of the front wheel (6 ), so that the weight being less than above the pivot axis (3), by its operating principle, the part of the frame 1 cannot

pas tomber.not fall.

La figure 2 nous présente une vue arrière des parties( 1 et 2), on voit que la partie (7) de la partie(2) du  Figure 2 presents a rear view of the parts (1 and 2), we see that the part (7) of the part (2) of the

châssis est incurvée pour obtenir le mouvement de balancier.  chassis is curved to obtain the pendulum movement.

La figure 3, nous présente une variante quatre roues avec ici un train avant(9) pivotant par rapport à un pivot(8) qui se projette dans l'axe de pivot(3) ici incliné différemment mais tout en respectant le nême  Figure 3 shows us a four wheel variant with here a front axle (9) pivoting relative to a pivot (8) which projects in the pivot axis (3) here inclined differently but while respecting the same

principe de fonctionnement.operating principle.

La figure 4 nous présente une vue arrière dont le principe de fonctionnement, présente une conceptioe non pas en appui, mais suspendue avec une partie(1O) de la partie(2) du cadre, inversée par rapport à la 30 partie(7) du cadre décrite dans les variantes précédentes.  Figure 4 shows us a rear view, the principle of operation, presents a conceptioe not in support, but suspended with a part (1O) of the part (2) of the frame, inverted with respect to the part (7) of the frame described in the previous variants.
