After some time Tesla applied for a patent for “electromagnetic wiper”, the name sounded very high, which made me think that this would be the first N of MuskThe greatest invention of the century.”
After a search on the Internet, it turned out to be just a vertical wiper arm that moves horizontally on the windshield to provide almost the entire wiper range.
Well, that’s it.
As a heavy technology heavy-duty manufacturing industry, cars are most fascinated by patent applications. Even the Peugeot “X0X” models are patented, so that Porsche 901 had to be renamed today’s prestigious 911. .
The registration of a patent is the same as the registration of a domain name, and how big the brain hole is.
Therefore, in the wonderful archives of the patent offices of various countries, cars account for half of the country.
As long as I wear a luminescent tire, I am the brightest child on the street
In 1961, Goodyear proposed the concept of lighting tires, which are made of translucent synthetic rubber and embedded in the tire rim to create a colorful and colorful rubber tire. Although the design was eventually abandoned due to lack of practicality, the luminescent tires later became brilliant in the concept car, which is quite suitable.
“dog bag”
The car was a plaything for the rich in the early days of life, and many rich families would have pets, so there was a contradiction between “the dog is not in love” and “do not want to shovel in the car.”
The “dog bag” solved this historical contradiction well, but the dog on the “dog bag” is not far from the go die.
Of course, there is even more madness, hanging the children in the bag…
When the scenery is seen, I will grow up
In 1973, Ford invented a 5-pound “Span class=”text-remarks” label=”(Tot Guard)“, which is filled with plastic. Body protection can be considered an early child safety seat.
This small guard is fixed with a seat belt on the seat. The front high baffle is filled with a soft material. In addition to the cushioning protection, it is said to block the line of sight and prevent dizziness. If I can install the IPAD on the Little Guardian, then I believe that the children don’t despise it as if they are like a toilet.
You, do you fall into the sea with a left-handed BMW or a right-handed BMW?
In 1994, the British-French Cross-Harbour Tunnel was opened, and people could finally drive to and from the European continent and the British Isles. However, the roads in the two places are different in direction and the position of the steering wheel is different – France is the left rudder and the UK is the right rudder.
The BMW engineers then proposed a revolutionary solution. They invented the first “interactive steering wheel” in the history of the car. The operation requires only four steps: opening the glove box, flipping out the dashboard, and removing the lower steering wheel. , loaded on the co-driver. However, the illustration does not explain how the throttle and brake problems are solved.
The more familiar use of this steering wheel is the intelligent anti-theft system of the bean.
I am Batman, I speak for Ford
On October 18, 2017, the US Patent Office announced that Ford applied for a patent for a “automobile built-in motorcycle.” This built-in motorcycle can be separated from the car and driven alone. The principle is roughly like the motorcycle that was ejected from the Batmobile in Christopher Nolan’s “Batman” movie, but the Batmobile was replaced by the Ford C-Max. .
The motorcycle has also become electric. According to Ford’s wording, it may be more like a scooter (Like C-Max does not sound very good Cool), connected by the car’s internal rail system between the front seats, the scooter is actually the center console of the car, the seat can be used as an armrest or storage area.
Toyota: I have a logo with a logo and a tail behind the car
Toyota’s bullhead is well known, but if you put a long tail on Camry, you will not recognize it.
In 2016, TEMA, Toyota’s North American R&D department, proposed a unique patented telescopic device design to improve the aerodynamic efficiency of the vehicle. It describes a tapered, deployable air resistance reduction mechanism. It’s a bit like the aerospace components that heavy-duty trucks transport to NASA, but it’s for cars and looks even more stupid.
Toyota does not disclose how this device works. The only thing I know is that it looks big and round like this tail, just like this Camry it is long and wide, it looks like one is going backwards. Tunnel boring machine.
The attachment to the mystery of the “double-headed car”
In the 1920s, a family namedThe Mueller garage repaired itself with an advertising vehicle: the Ford double-headed T-car. Which direction do you want to push in the double-head mode?
In October 1953, a company called MAC Alamagny applied for a “double-headed car” patent. The patented car has a front-rear pivoting car that can be driven from both ends.
Afterwards, some people really made the two-headed car. I mean the “Salfa Rombo” of the Captain of the Captain in Top Gear (composed by Alfa Romeo 164 and Saab 9000 heads). No one can explain why humans can’t stop exploring the “double-headed dragon car”.
Car urinal: I am ugly, but I am very gentle
Don’t think that this complicated system is an RGB water-cooling device. In fact, it is just a patent map of a car-mounted male toilet.
So you can naively think that the picture below is just a car toilet?
Yes, it’s really true.
