AIR-CUSHIONED SCREW-PROPELLED VEHICLE Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC B60V1/00 B60F3/00 

FIELD: mechanical engineering; air-cushioned screw-propelled vehicles.

SUBSTANCE: screw-propelled vehicle consists of a body and a traction power unit. A fan is installed in the forward part of the body. The fan is connected by an air duct to a ballonet. The ballonet is equipped with mounted segment nozzles. The traction power plant consists of two units, each of which consists of an engine connected by a switching transmission with a propeller in a ring and with a screw propeller. Each traction power unit is fixed on an air cushion using parallelogram mechanisms. Parallelogram mechanisms consist of lower and upper horizontal pylons. The pylons are hingedly connected at one end to the side of the air-cushioned screw-propelled vehicle, and at the other to vertical posts. Horizontal pylons of parallelogram mechanisms have the profile of an aerodynamic wing and are equipped with horizontal aerodynamic wings.

EFFECT: increased maneuverability.
