Patent number: 11866150Abstract: A propeller safety device is provided. The propeller safety device is configured to insert a moving part of a propeller into a fixed part during a crash of an air mobility to allow a reduction in the total length of the propeller, thereby preventing the propeller from hitting the ground. Accordingly, a secondary accident due to fragments formed when the rotating propeller hits the ground is prevented.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2021Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignees: Hyundai Motor Company, Kia CorporationInventors: Ji Woo Yoo, Youn Sic Nam, Keon Woo Kim, Kwan Ho Moh, Young Heon Kim

Patent number: 11845533Abstract: A propeller control system of an air mobility is configured to insert a movable part forming a propeller into a fixed part in a situation where the air mobility is stored and crashes, thereby reducing an entire length of the propeller. As a result, an entire size of the air mobility is reduced when the air mobility is stored, which may prevent secondary accidents caused by fragments generated by contact of the rotated propeller with the ground in the situation where the air mobility crashes.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2022Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignees: Hyundai Motor Company, Kia CorporationInventors: Ji Woo Yoo, Keon Woo Kim, Kwan Ho Moh, Youn Sic Nam

Patent number: 11787530Abstract: A fail safety apparatus of the air mobility is provided. Locations of propeller modules are adjusted by rotation parts and length adjustment units to evenly distribute thrust of the re-located propeller modules so that the attitude of the air mobility is stabilized. In particular, when one propeller module among a plurality of propeller modules fails, the attitude of the air mobility is normalized by adjusting a location of the failed propeller module and locations of remaining normal propeller modules so that flight safety of the air mobility is secured.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2021Date of Patent: October 17, 2023Assignees: Hyundai Motor Company, Kia CorporationInventors: Youn Sic Nam, Ui Jin Jung, Young Tae Kim, Young Heon Kim
