White Motorcycle Concepts (WMC) is causing a stir in the motorcycle industry with its innovative patents focused on extreme aerodynamics. Recently, the British company revealed details of its new patents, which present design solutions that promise to revolutionize the efficiency and performance of motorcycles.
At the center of these patents is the concept of “Ducted Fan Technology”, which involves the use of an air tunnel that passes through the body of the motorcycle, drastically reducing aerodynamic resistance. This tunnel, called V-Air, allows air to flow through the motorcycle rather than around it, reducing resistance and potentially increasing maximum speed. This unique design also contributes to greater stability at high speeds, a crucial feature for high-performance motorcycles.
In addition to the V-Air, WMC’s patents detail the integration of components such as aerodynamic wheels and adjustable fairings, which adapt to driving conditions to optimize efficiency. The company is also exploring the use of lightweight and high-strength materials to build its motorcycles, reducing weight without compromising durability.
Another patented innovation is the hybrid powertrain system. WMC plans to combine electric motors with combustion engines, maximizing energy efficiency and minimizing emissions. This hybrid system is designed to offer robust performance while simultaneously meeting the growing sustainability demands of the automotive industry.
Les brevets incluent également des détails sur le contrôle avancé de la traction et les systèmes de suspension active, qui ajustent automatiquement la rigidité et la hauteur de la moto en fonction des conditions de conduite. Cela promet une expérience de conduite plus sûre et plus confortable, quel que soit le terrain ou la vitesse.
La WMC est clairement axée sur la redéfinition des normes de design et de technologie des motos. La société a déjà démontré le potentiel de ses innovations avec le prototype WMC250EV, une moto électrique qui intègre bon nombre de ces technologies brevetées et qui vise à battre des records de vitesse.
