A recovery and towing vehicle which has been specifically designed for transport in a freighter aircraft and must necessarily therefore be of low profile to fit within the cargo space of an air-transport vehicle comprising a main chassis (1) on which is mounted a cab (3) with a removable upper part (5) and a slewing crane (7) having an extendable boom (11), a winch (10) and spades (23) mounted in slideways (29). The vehicle also is provided with a traditional supported lift towing boom (25) but instead of being mounted for pivoting movement on the chassis (1), the boom (25) is mounted for generally vertical sliding movement. For this purpose, slideways (29) are provided on the inside of housing (31) for the spades and vertical movement of the boom (25) is under the control of the main crane boom (11) which can be connected to the boom (25) by a lift strop (41). By providing for the boom (25) to be movable vertically in slideways rather than being pivotally mounted on the chassis, a low profile chassis can be provided and the vertical dimensions of the vehicle can be kept compact.The slideways (29) may be straight or arcuate, arcuate slideways having the advantage of providing increased lift. Such increased lift can also be achieved by inserting a spacer wedge (61) between an anvil (55) at the base of the mast (27) and an abutment surface (59) on the folding boom (33). |

A vehicle capable of multiple varieties of locomotion having a main body; a plurality of motors and blades providing flying capability; each motor being associated with and powering a blade assembly; two legs extending from opposing sides of the main body creating a ground propulsion system. The ground propulsion system having two legs; each leg connected to a track body at the opposing leg end; each track body comprised of a plurality of drive gears; each track body connected to and retaining a track providing ground propulsion. The vehicle can either drive or fly based on its base structure, in additional to carrying a payload. The payload is carried below the main body of the vehicle and between the tracks or running gear. When the vehicle is in flight, the tracks are able to rotate up into a fly/flight mode to protect the blades during flight. |

Transformation method of hybrid transportation vehicle for ground and air includes the following transformation and reciprocal steps: Tilting the compensation cover (7) on. Expansion of both whole wings (1) from the transportation vehicle longitudinal position around two vertical axes (2) into the flying position. Expansion of rear parts of wings (1) from the top front parts of wings (1) into the spread flying position by tilting the rear of each wing (1) around a horizontal axis (3). The take-off and landing tilting of wings (1) by an angle of attack alpha=0 to 40° of the wings onset. Front wheels track (5) is reduced by axially shifting the front wheels (5) towards the fuselage. Furthermore, a corresponding hybrid transportation vehicle for ground and air is described which contains reciprocal transformation mechanisms for transformation from a sterling double or four-track automobile into a sterling aircraft for take-off and landing on the ground or water, and vice versa. |

Disclosed is an air-transportable and highly autonomous vehicle of the type comprising a single-unit chassis supported in the front by a set of driving and steering wheels and at the rear by two axles to which suspension leaf-springs are coupled. The leaf-springs may slide longitudinally relative to the axles. The stack of leaves is carried in its transverse median plane by an equalizer mechanism which is angularly movable on the end of a pivotal shaft. In this vehicle, each end of a pivotal arm (17) is carried in a fixed sleeve (18) with which it is rendered rigid, the sleeve being extended downwardly by a member (20) for fixing one of the ends (21.sub.1) of a part (21)of the reaction links. This sleeve is surmounted by an equalizer support (22) which is also fixed and receives the ends (23.sub.1) of the other part (23) of the links, the free ends (21.sub.2 -23.sub.2) of all of the links (21-23) being assembled with supports which are fixed against rotation and clamped to the two axles (16). The suspension leaf-springs (15) are fixed to a base (31) which is mounted to be angularly movable on rolling bearings (32) carried by the two ends of the pivotal shaft (16). |

The invention relates to amphibious and “ground affect” vehicles. The invention incorporates a special wheel consisting of a box portion affixed to a disc or wheel portion. A vehicle with such wheels can roll on most surfaces with easy transition from one medium to another. For example, it can roll from the terrain, onto the water and then back to the land. Such wheels enable vehicles to roll on top of the snow and other surfaces where conventional wheels cannot. |
