SCREW PROPELLED VEHICLESSCREW- PROPELLED VEHICLESA focus of off- road locomotion since the beginning of automobile is formed by Archimedes screw propelled vehicles. They exchange their wheels for wide pontoons, which wrap around a helical surface, invented by Archimedes, Greek mathematician who lived from 2. BC. Generally, these vehicles, excellent in mud, snow and water prove otherwise slow, fuel- efficient and important traces appear behind them. Hard surfaces such as roads are closed to them. They can still move sideways, but their steering is no more assured, unless the . Anyway, these machines are part of a bygone era, though some are still trying to perfect them or use them for processing ore residue. We can go back to 1. U. S.

Amfirol steering system : as many of these devices, they can also move sideways when riding on hard surfaces by rotating the pontoons in the same direction. The interesting idea is this : the pontoons, usuallyparallel, can change their angle, which allows steer the vehicle in the right direction, although the curves are quite large. However Amfirol is not allowed on roads. J M M collection. They can see the significant traces left after the passage of an Amfirol.

Founder of ISTV, International Society for Terrain- Vehicle System, always active, he took several patents including a vehicle propelled byscrews, in collaboration with Howard A. Wilcox in 1. 96. 7. The vehicle shown on the patent is semi- articulated in pitch and roll. Each body receives two screw pontoons which can entirerotate to steer the vehicle (wagon steer) but also switch from a screw locomotion in mud or snow to a wheeled locomotion on hard surfaces if the pontoons are pivoted at 9. The sand should be crossed in anintermediate position. Probably quite expensive and without elastic suspension for high speed, no prototype was built despite a quite appealing theoretical idea. US3. 35. 48. 61 patent. M. G. Bekker led the 'Defense Research Laboratories of General Motors in Santa Barbara, CA, from 1. He worked at the completion of the rover that landed on the moon, and calculated itself the lattice of the tires and elastic chassis of lunar rover. But before arriving at the conclusion of a vehicle with 4 wheels, he reviewed manytypes of locomotion may respond to movement on the moon (tracked vehicles or wheeled articulated vehicles, crawling or jumping) and he achieve among others a workingmodel of an articulated screw propelled vehicle.

Screw Machine' fitted with a set of little wheels arranged on the top of the two propulsion screws toreduce friction on hard ground. The vehicle worked well on hard (and clean enough) surfaces but it got stuck in snow. It appears that the diameter of the pontoons was too small to provide good support on soft ground. N0. 6/2. 49. 64. 79. SRL Screw Machine. Today, some specialized tasks are assigned to screw vehicles, such as compaction and dewatering of ore residue, especially bauxite. The repeated passage of the machine turns an inconsistent ground into a hard surface suitable for equipment that is more conventional.
