Definitions

• the purpose of the invention presented here is the further development of the cars of today according to the operating principle of flying snakes living in nature. It is fast, economic, safe and comfortable, can be driven easily and safely even under bad weather conditions, and it is environmentally friendly. Scope of application of the subject invention: for everyday use, under extreme weather conditions and unfavourable road conditions, using ground and air steering simultaneously. It can travel at a speed above the average in a comfortable and safe manner. The higher is the speed of the vehicle constructed by me (Fig. 1), the more air flows into the air channels, lifting the vehicle from a speed of about 60 km/hour and making it glide gradually in the air. The wheels stay in touch with the ground, but the load on them decreases. Steering is ensured by controlling the front wheels as well as the direction angle of the out- flowing air by means of a wind blade that is turned to the same direction and angle as the wheels.
• the invention helps to minimise the resistance to rolling and to utilise the airstream. Gusts of wind even above 100 km are not sensed in the car and do not affect its driving stability. Natural effects, the airstream caused by cars passing by, gusts of wind ex- perienced on bridges or in tunnels, as well as the quality of the road do not have any effect on driving. Noise and shocks caused by defects of the road surface are drastically reduced. It is almost impossible to remove the car from its stable position.
• the dynamic stability of the vehicle is very good on slippery, slimy roads, even by a sudden change of direction. It is easy to manoeuvre, even when the wheels leave the solid ground, since then the control of air becomes dominant. Its braking distance is shorter, and it does not lose its controllability even by hard braking or a sudden change of direction.
• the car glides in the air and the air channels installed under the car body provide for the stability of the car. In proportion to growing speed, the lift force exerted on the car becomes higher and higher, reducing adhesion and the resistance to rolling. Manoeuvrability is ensured partly by the front wheels, and partly by the steering blades located at the rear of the vehicle.
• the invention relates to a system that can be used in motor vehicles, preferably in passenger cars. Using this system, friction generated during driving can be reduced, which results in the decrease of fuel consumption and the improvement of the driving stability of the motor vehicle.
• Our purpose is to create a universal system that is compatible with most motor vehicles and can be used through minor conversion.
• the air deflector system means complex conversion affecting the front and the bottom of the vehicle, making it possible for the air mass to flow under the vehicle and to reduce the mass loaded on the running gears.
• Our solution is based on the recognition that the air mass accumulating in front of the vehicle or diverted unnecessarily can also be used for the reduction of the weight of the motor vehicle, i.e. it is necessary to carry and move less dead weight while keeping the load to be delivered moving.
• the subject-matter of the invention is an air deflector system that can be used primarily on passenger cars by the conversion of the car in the area of the front bumper.
• the first component of the air deflector system is an air-collecting wind grille, expediently consisting of rectangular cuboid elements that also serve expediently for directing the air.
• Its material is preferably stainless steel and its main purpose is to break the air pressure.
• the inner edges of this grille structure are formed so that they are directed towards the ground at an angle of 45°.
• a deflector wall tilted at an angle of at least 45°, directing the airflow under the vehicle, and the directed airflow passes through the stabilising air deflector C profiles under the vehicle towards the rear of the vehicle.
• At least two steering blades are installed in the last third of the C profiles behind the deflector wall, they are linked to the steering system of the vehicle and are turned at the same angle as the steered wheels.
• the air deflector system according to the invention is capable to exert lifting force on the motor vehicle already at a speed of 30 km/h, reducing the load on the running gear and the friction. At a speed of 160 km/h, the motor vehicle is raised by about 7 cm.
• the first component of the system from the front of the vehicle is a wind grille comprising of rectangular cuboid elements, an inlet edge with a fixed angle and an outlet edge with an adjustable angle.
• Figure 1 Air deflector system without a vehicle
• FIG. 1 shows the air deflector system according to the invention, which is to be mounted expediently on a passenger car.
• Wind grille 1 is to be mounted in place of the front bumper of the motor vehicle, deflector wall 2 is located behind it and is formed in an angle that ensures that the air mass is directed in the stabilisers located under the vehicle and made of C profiles running along the total length of the vehicle.
• Steering blades 4 are placed expediently in the rear third of the bottom of the vehicle, and they ensure driving stability and manoeuvrability by being turned at the same angle as the steered wheels of the vehicle.
• the advantage of the air deflector system is that it reduces the fuel consumption of the motor vehicle by reducing its friction. Due to lower stresses, the service life of the running gear and the tyres increases, and the system attenuates the vibration caused by road defects.
