Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of transportation technology, specifically relating to a dynamic suspended vehicle that utilizes the centrifugal force generated by rotating blades to interact with supporting soft media such as water, sand, and mud to generate a coupled upward lifting force, thereby achieving transportation and movement. Background Technology

[0002] The support methods of existing transportation vehicles can be mainly divided into three categories: First, ships: relying on the buoyancy of water for support, their speed is limited by liquid resistance, and energy consumption increases significantly with speed, making it difficult to achieve high-speed travel; Second, vehicles: relying on the contact between the wheels and the ground for support, their terrain adaptability is limited, and they have difficulty traveling in soft deserts, swamps, mud pits, and other areas; Third, aircraft: although airplanes are fast, they rely on aerodynamic lift for support, resulting in high energy consumption, and they cannot be used in places without air, such as the moon.

[0003] The above technologies all adopt the principle of "static support" or "steady flow support", which is highly efficient in specific media, but it is difficult to switch efficiently between different media. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a new type of transportation vehicle that can travel efficiently and at high speed in different media (water, desert, swamp, and other soft media) to address the above-mentioned shortcomings. It achieves dynamic levitation and propulsion by coupling the centrifugal force generated by rotating blades with the reaction force of the medium.

[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is: a vehicle, comprising a carrier, wherein the carrier is provided with a driver's cabin, a passenger cabin or a cargo cabin, a power system and a control system, characterized in that: centrifugal wheel sets are symmetrically or detachably installed on both sides of the carrier, or centrifugal wheel sets are installed or detachably installed at the bottom, forming a dynamic suspension system; the centrifugal wheel sets include impellers and blades, the impellers include a rotor and a fluid guide groove or guide plate, the blades are evenly distributed along the impeller, and one end of the blades is fixed to the impeller or distributed according to a certain curve; the centrifugal wheel sets are connected to the power system, and the control system is connected to the power system.

[0006] The blades described in the technical solution of this invention are rigid blades; they are used in water or other liquid media environments.

[0007] In the technical solution of the present invention, the carrier is a ship carrier; the rigid blade is an arc-shaped rigid blade.

[0008] In the technical solution of the present invention, the carrier is a ship carrier; the rigid blade can also be a tile-shaped rigid blade.

[0009] In the technical solution of the present invention, the carrier is a ship carrier; the rigid blade can also be an arc-shaped rigid blade with a circular orthographic projection, which is symmetrically welded and fixed on the outside of the impeller, so that the centrifugal wheel assembly as a whole forms a certain curved surface.

[0010] The blades described in the technical solution of this invention are soft or hard deformable blades; suitable for swamp or desert environments.

[0011] In the technical solution of this invention, the carrier is a vehicle carrier; the soft blade is a hinge.

[0012] The hinge described in the technical solution of this invention is a plate-shaped metal hinge.

[0013] The blades in the technical solution of this invention are made of high-strength material ropes; used in airless or thin-air extraterrestrial surface environments.

[0014] In the technical solution of this invention, the carrier is a lunar rover carrier; the high-strength material rope is a high-strength carbon fiber rope.

[0015] This invention employs a vehicle comprised of a carrier, a cockpit, a passenger or cargo cabin, a power system, and a control system. Centrifugal wheel assemblies are symmetrically or detachably installed on both sides, or installed or detachably at the bottom, forming a dynamic levitation system. Each centrifugal wheel assembly includes an impeller and blades. The impeller comprises a rotor and a fluid guide channel or guide plate. The blades are evenly distributed along the impeller, with one end fixed to the impeller. The centrifugal wheel assembly is connected to the power system, and the control system is electrically connected to the power system. Therefore, in various media environments such as water, deserts, swamps, and extraterrestrial surfaces, by selecting and installing appropriate centrifugal wheel assemblies, dynamic levitation and propulsion can be achieved by utilizing differences in centrifugal force.

[0016] This invention utilizes the centrifugal force generated by rotating blades to interact with supporting media such as water, sand, and mud to form a dynamic suspended transport device, which is particularly suitable for transportation in multi-media environments such as water bodies, deserts, swamps, and extraterrestrial surfaces.

[0017] The centrifugal wheel assembly is the core feature of this invention. Its principle is that the centrifugal wheel assembly rotates at high speed, and the blades generate a strong centrifugal force. After the blades come into contact with the environmental medium such as water or sand, the blades will skip on the surface of the soft medium, thereby lifting the blades and offsetting part of the centrifugal force of the blades. Through mechanical coupling, the centrifugal wheel assembly as a whole generates an upward lifting force, thereby realizing the dynamic levitation of the vehicle of this invention.

[0024] It should be understood that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc., illustrated in the accompanying drawings of this specification are merely for illustrative purposes to aid those skilled in the art and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Therefore, they have no substantial technical significance. Any modifications to the structure, changes in proportions, or adjustments to size, without affecting the effectiveness and purpose of the invention, should still fall within the scope of the technical content disclosed in this invention. Furthermore, the terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "middle," and "one" used in this specification are merely for clarity and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Changes or adjustments to their relative relationships, without substantially altering the technical content, should also be considered within the scope of the invention.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, Embodiment 1 of a centrifugal wheel assembly for a vehicle according to the present invention comprises a first impeller 1 and first blades 2. The first impeller 1 is a conventional impeller, including a rotor and a fluid guide groove or guide plate, and is detachably mounted on both sides or the bottom of the carrier. The first blades 2 consist of four blades, one end of which is symmetrically fixed to the edge of the first impeller 1 by pins, and the other end extends freely, allowing the first blades 2 to rotate freely on the impeller with the pins. The first blades 2 are arc-shaped rigid blades with a curved surface of a certain curvature, the curvature of which is determined according to the vehicle's design load and speed. The material is a metal alloy, high-strength carbon fiber, or organic materials such as nylon. By having the first blades 2 skim across the water surface 3, the water surface 3 supports the first blades 2. Then, through overall rotation, the centrifugal force of the first blades 2 is counteracted, thereby generating an upward centrifugal force, achieving the suspension of the carrier on the water surface 3.

[0026] In bodies of water such as rivers, lakes, and oceans, the first impeller 1 rotates at high speed, driving the first blade 2 to move in a circular motion in a freely extended state. The first blade 2 exerts a centrifugal force on the first impeller 1. When the first blade 2 contacts the water surface 3, it causes the water surface 3 to deform. At this time, the first blade 2 will be lifted by the water surface 3 like skipping a stone, thus offsetting part of the centrifugal force exerted by the first blade 2 on the first impeller 1. At this time, in the dynamic state, the centrifugal force on the left and right sides of the first impeller 1 is basically the same, but the centrifugal force on the top and bottom will be different. The centrifugal force on the top of the first impeller 1 is still there, while the centrifugal force on the bottom is greatly reduced, so the whole system will generate an upward centrifugal force. At the same time, because the first impeller 1 is driven by power, the friction between the first blade 2 and the water surface and the deformation of the water surface 3 can give the first impeller 1 a forward thrust, ensuring the overall forward movement.

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, Embodiment 2 of the centrifugal wheel assembly for a vehicle according to the present invention comprises a second impeller 4 and second blades 5. The second impeller 4 is identical to the first impeller 1 and is detachably mounted on both sides or the bottom of the carrier. There are three second blades 5, which are curved metal sheets with a certain curvature. Their orthographic projection is a circular arc-shaped rigid blade with a curved surface of a certain curvature, the curvature of which is determined according to the vehicle's design load and speed. The material is a metal alloy, high-strength carbon fiber, or organic materials such as nylon. The three second blades 5 are symmetrically welded to the same side, forming a curved surface for the entire centrifugal wheel assembly. The second impeller 4 drives the second blades 5 to rotate together. After the curved surface of the second blade 5 contacts the water surface, the second blade 5 will skip across the water, causing deformation of the water surface. Simultaneously, the water surface exerts a reaction force on the second blade 5, counteracting the centrifugal force and gravity of the second blade 5, thus generating an upward centrifugal force for the entire system. Meanwhile, as the second impeller 4 is driven by power, the friction between the second blade 5 and the water surface, as well as the deformation of the water surface, can give the impeller a forward thrust, ensuring the overall forward movement.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, embodiment 3 of the centrifugal wheel assembly for a vehicle according to the present invention comprises a third impeller 6 and a third blade 7. The third impeller 6 is identical to the first impeller 1 and is detachably mounted on both sides or the bottom of the carrier. The third blade 7 is made of high-strength material rope. The third blade 7 can also be made of other soft blades or rigid deformable blades; soft blades are like hinges, and rigid deformable blades are like plate-shaped metal hinges, each suitable for different terrains. When the third impeller 6 rotates, the third blade 7 generates centrifugal force. When the third blade 7 contacts the desert surface 8, it deforms, resulting in different centrifugal forces in the vertical direction, thus generating an upward lifting force.

[0029] like Figure 2 , Figure 4As shown, Embodiment 1 of the present invention discloses a transportation vehicle comprising a carrier, centrifugal wheel sets, a power system, and a control system, which is a transportation vehicle with a dynamic suspension system. The carrier is a boat carrier 9, which has a passenger compartment 10. Four centrifugal wheel sets are symmetrically installed on both sides of the boat carrier 9 and are detachably mounted. Each centrifugal wheel set consists of a second impeller 4 and a second blade 5. The power system, including a general-purpose electric motor and its drive mechanism or an internal combustion engine and its drive mechanism, provides power for the continuous rotation of the centrifugal wheel sets. It is located within the boat carrier 9 and is connected to the four centrifugal wheel sets. The control system is a conventional control system, including an internal combustion engine control module and steering mechanism or an electric motor control module and steering mechanism, connected to the power system, primarily controlling power output and steering. Controlling power output means controlling the wheel set speed. Because different wheel set speeds result in different coupling centrifugal forces and different thrust generated by tackling the water surface, this is used to control the vehicle's speed and energy consumption. Each of the four centrifugal wheel sets is independently powered. The output power is controlled by adjusting the throttle, thus controlling the speed of each centrifugal wheel set. Alternatively, the motor speed and output power can be controlled by adjusting the ignition switch, thereby controlling the speed of each centrifugal wheel set and ensuring stable operation of the vehicle. Speed ​​control is automatic but can be manually adjusted. Based on actual test results of the speed versus coupling lift force curve and the speed versus forward thrust curve, the automatic control module automatically adjusts the speed of each centrifugal wheel set under specific speed and load conditions to achieve smooth vehicle operation. The steering mechanism is a conventional steering mechanism, including a steering wheel. The direction of the centrifugal wheel sets, i.e., the steering of the vehicle, is controlled by gripping the steering wheel. The lower side and bottom of the boat carrier 9 are sealed structures, and the connection points between the power system and the centrifugal wheel sets and the boat carrier 9 are equipped with rotary sealing structures. The second blade 5, with a certain curvature metal sheet, is adapted to the water surface 3.

[0030] Calculations show that when the second impeller 4 rotates at 3000 rpm, the centrifugal force is extremely large. Assuming the second blade 5 weighs 1 kg and has a rotation radius of 0.5 meters, according to the centrifugal force formula F=m⋅r⋅ω 2The centrifugal force generated can reach approximately 5 tons. Considering the skipping motion of the second blade 5, the lifting force exerted by the water surface on it is considerable. At a speed of 3000 rpm, with one second impeller 4 carrying three second blades 5, and each blade 5 in contact with the water surface for approximately 0.006 seconds, and assuming a blade area of ​​0.1 square meters and a submerged pressure of 8 cm, the lifting force generated by the water as this blade skips across the surface is approximately 1.7 tons. Taking into account various losses, calculations show that the total outer diameter of the centrifugal wheel assembly, including the second impeller 4 and the second blades 5, is 1.1 meters. At a speed of 3000 rpm, a single centrifugal wheel assembly, moving rapidly across the water, can generate an upward lifting force of no less than 1.5 tons. A small passenger ship with a gross vehicle weight of 5 tons can be equipped with four of these centrifugal wheel assemblies. For cargo ships, eight or more of this size can be installed, or even larger centrifugal wheel assemblies can be used.

[0031] like Figure 5 As shown, Embodiment 2 of the present invention discloses a vehicle comprising a carrier, centrifugal wheel sets, a power system, and a control system, constituting a vehicle with a dynamic suspension system. The carrier is a lunar rover carrier 11. Four centrifugal wheel sets are symmetrically installed on both sides of the lunar rover carrier 11, and are detachably mounted. Each centrifugal wheel set consists of a third impeller 6 and a third blade 7. The power system employs a conventional electric power system, including a motor and a battery, housed within the lunar rover carrier 11. The motor is connected to the four centrifugal wheel sets, and the battery drives the motor to rotate the centrifugal wheel sets. The control system employs a conventional control system, including a motor control module and a steering mechanism, connected to the power system, primarily controlling power output and steering. Controlling power output means controlling the wheel set speed, as different wheel set speeds generate different coupling centrifugal forces, which are used to control the vehicle's speed and energy consumption. Each of the four centrifugal wheel sets has an independent power source. Controlling the motor speed and output power via a control switch controls the speed of each centrifugal wheel set, achieving stable operation of the vehicle. The speed is automatically controlled but can be manually adjusted. Based on the actual test results of the rotational speed and coupling lifting force curves, and the relationship between rotational speed and forward thrust curves, the automatic control module automatically adjusts the rotational speed of each centrifugal wheel assembly under specific speed and load conditions to achieve smooth operation of the vehicle. The steering mechanism is a conventional one, including a steering wheel. By gripping the steering wheel, the direction of the centrifugal wheel assembly is controlled, thus controlling the vehicle's steering. The third blade 7 uses high-strength carbon fiber rope, suitable for lunar rovers due to its lack of air resistance and compatibility with the lunar surface. The third blade 7 is also compatible with desert and swamp surfaces.

[0032] Any device that uses the principle of dynamic coupling between centrifugal force difference and contact surface to achieve the suspension of the main body is within the scope of this invention.

[0033] This invention utilizes the difference in centrifugal force to achieve dynamic levitation and propulsion in a vehicle, which is particularly suitable for multi-media environments such as water, desert, swamp and extraterrestrial surfaces. It achieves efficient and high-speed transportation and movement through the dynamic coupling of centrifugal force with fluid / particle media via a specific device.
