Marine Propulsion > Self-propelled Vehicle Having Land And Water Propulsion Means (e.g., Amphibious Vehicle) Self-propelled Vehicle Having Land And Water Propulsion Means (e.g., Amphibious Vehicle)Self-propelled Vehicle Having Land And Water Propulsion Means (e.g., Amphibious Vehicle) patent applications listed are from June 2005 to current and include Date, Patent Application Number, Patent Title, Patent Abstract summary and are linked to the corresponding patent application page.11/23/06 - 20060264126 - Jet drive for an amphibious vehicle Amphibious vehicle (50), with reference to FIG. 4, has jet drive (30) packaged behind power train (20, 22), but also configured to produce sufficient thrust for planing, despite drag created by open arches around retractable wheels (52). The ratio of thrust to jet intake length is at least 18 kN/m. ... 10/26/06 - 20060240721 - Water-running device for automobile A water-running device has right-and-left floats attached to an automobile. Rotary joint sections and rotary screws of the floats have free joints and blades respectively. The rotary joint sections are linked with wheels of the automobile. ... 10/19/06 - 20060234567 - Wheel suspension and retraction system A mechanism is provided by which the wheels of an amphibious vehicle are simultaneously retracted or protracted for switching between a land mode and a marine mode of operation. Each of a transversely spaced pair of wheels is supported by a horizontally arranged spring and damper combination acting on at ... 09/07/06 - 20060199449 - Amphibious vehicle A sit-stride amphibious vehicle configuration which supports a high performance envelope both on land as well as in water. The vehicle has a planing hull and four retractable wheels. Handlebars provide for directional control in both modes of operation. Each road wheel is retractable by pivoting through at least 45° ... 08/24/06 - 20060189224 - Amphibious vehicles with retractable wheels Amphibious vehicle having road wheels which are retractable to allow planing. Each wheel suspension is protractable through a gap in the planing surface of the hull. To reduce hydrodynamics drag and improve marine handling, covers are provided which cover such gaps when the wheels are retracted. These covers may be ... 08/17/06 - 20060183384 - Amphibious vehicle suspension A retractable suspension for an amphibious vehicle, the configuration of which allows the size of an opening in the hull necessary for accommodating the protraction of each wheel to be kept to a minimum. The suspension is configured such that the only component that comes to extend beyond the hull ... 08/03/06 - 20060172628 - Amphibious vehicle transmission An amphibious vehicle has retractable road wheels to allow planing over water. Power to the road wheels is disconnected automatically as the wheels are retracted. This may be achieved through a cable attached to a suspension rocker arm to disconnect a dog clutch attached to the input shaft of a ... 08/03/06 - 20060172627 - Amphibious vehicle A planing amphibious vehicle with retractable wheels and a sit-astride seat having dimensions that impart enhanced capability in both land as well as water modes of operation. The beam, track, dead rise angle and the location of the handlebars cooperate to enhance freeboard and ground clearance without sacrificing manoeuvrability. The ... 08/03/06 - 20060172626 - Amphibious vehicle speed change transmission arrangement A power train configuration for an amphibious vehicle especially well suited for sit-astride applications. A prime mover drives a marine propulsion unit and/or at least one road wheel wherein the such road wheel is driven through a speed-change transmission. The speed-transmission is positioned above or below the axis of the ... 06/08/06 - 20060121802 - Apparatus to convert an all terrain vehicle into a boat, and methods of constructing and utilizing same Apparatus to convert an all terrain vehicle into an amphibious off-road vehicle. A buoyant unitary structure is fitted to the all terrain vehicle with releasable fasteners. The buoyant unitary structure includes one or more internal air pockets, and a hollow compartment to accommodate the legs and feet of a user ... 06/01/06 - 20060116032 - Amphibious recreation vehicle An amphibious passenger vehicle having several open or covered holes and a surrounding cover to accommodate fishing and hunting. An aft mounted engine, forward/reverse transmission, drive linkage and disk/caliper brake assembly controls a pair of rear wheels. Electric, screw actuated cylinders and pistons or manual linkage control the steering of ... 03/23/06 - 20060063439 - All-terrain vehicle floats A floatation device adapted to convert between a boat-like system and floats for an all-terrain vehicle (hereinafter referred to as ATV). Two pontoons are slidably attached to each other using tubular telescopic motion therebetween so as to allow widening the distance between said pontoons when so desired. Yet an extendable ... 12/15/05 - 20050277342 - Amphibious vehicle An amphibious vehicle has a power train including an engine having an oil sump connected to a lower portion of the engine an in-line transmission and a power take off. The power take off is located between the engine and the transmission thereby separating the engine and the transmission, is ... 10/06/05 - 20050221693 - Conversion kit for all terrain vehicle The invention offers a conversion kit for all terrain vehicle, which is adjusted for driving both on the terrain and in the water. For that purpose, pontoons to lengthen the front and rear side of the all terrain vehicle have been constructed, the height whereof in respect of the vehicle ... ### FreshPatents.com Support |
