AI Technical Summary
Existing drive systems suffer from significant slippage and inefficiencies due to changes in friction coefficients and icing, particularly in contact-based systems like rolling rubber wheels, leading to energy wastage and loss of control.
A drive system utilizing a rotatable disc with permanent magnets and a sword-shaped pole structure that generates propulsive force through magnetic reluctance and eddy currents, allowing slip-free movement and efficient energy use by switching between reluctance and eddy current principles based on speed.
Enables smooth, slip-free operation with high tractive force and precise angle control, reducing energy consumption and maintaining efficiency across varying conditions.
