  • Active front splitter for automobile
    Patent number: 11161556
    Abstract: An active front splitter for automobile is movably connected to a splitter support by a spindle support at each of its two ends. A driving mechanism being mounted to the splitter support at each of its two ends, an electric motor being mounted in the middle of the splitter support. The driving mechanism is driven by the electric motor and fixedly connected with the active front splitter so that the active front splitter is driven by the driving mechanism to rotate around a spindle fixed to the splitter support between a forwardly extended position and a retreated position. Thus, while ensuring the trafficability of the assembled automobile, it is possible to reduce wind drag so that the expected aerodynamic performance can be achieved.

  • DRIVING MECHANISM FOR AN ACTIVE FRONT SPLITTER
    Publication number: 20210070379
    Abstract: A driving mechanism for an active front splitter comprising a framework and an electric motor mounted in the middle of the framework. Each of the two ends of the framework is provided with a transmission mechanism which connects the electric motor and the active front splitter and is connected to the framework through a movable connection. The driving mechanism according to the invention is able to control the movement of the active front splitter, so as to achieve the expected aerodynamic performance of an assembled automobile while ensuring its trafficability.
