  • Link mechanism type variable wheel deflector and vehicle having the same
    Patent number: 12091100
    Abstract: According to a link mechanism type variable wheel deflector applied to a vehicle, a deflector coupled to a cover plate using a hinge boss as a rotation center can be operated using traveling resistant wind as a driving source, a piston receiving the linear movement of a link shaft by a moment arm rotated with the deflector can unfold the deflector while compressing an elastic member, and an elastic restoring force of the elastic member can be applied to the piston to return the link shaft and the moment arm to fold the deflector, thereby strengthening the repeated durability of the elastic member compared to the rotating motion of the spring, and in particular, the rotating motion and the linear motion can be implemented by the link motion mechanism apparatus connected to the deflector, thereby implementing the high durability performance with the low-cost mechanical structure.
