The Propulsion Plate of the Aeromovel

The Propulsion Plate of the Aeromovel

The Aeromovel utilizes innovative technology that emphasizes efficiency and sustainability in urban and airport environments. At the core of this system is the propulsion plate, which plays a crucial role. Fixed to the vehicle by a mast extending from the bottom of the car into the duct, this plate not only ensures the vehicle’s movement but also integrates essential safety functions.

Functioning of the Propulsion Plate

When external fans activate the airflow within the duct, this pressure exerts force on the propulsion plate. The pressurized air pushes the plate, directly transferring motion to the vehicle. This exclusive operating principle eliminates the need for onboard motors or batteries, resulting in a lighter and more efficient vehicle. The absence of heavy components not only facilitates the Aeromovel’s movement but also minimizes energy consumption, contributing to an economical and eco-friendly operation.

Safety and Stability

In addition to its propulsion function, the propulsion plate also serves as an anchoring mechanism for the vehicle on the track. This anchoring feature is vital for preventing derailment or tipping, ensuring operational safety. The duct’s structure, formed by the elevated track’s beam, provides robust support even in strong winds.

As cities seek cleaner and more effective alternatives for passenger transport, the Aeromovel stands out as a viable option, aligning with the current demands of urban mobility and environmental requirements.
