Means and methods for reducing oncoming air resistance and angle wind effects to a moving vehicle

摘要

The effects of oncoming air resistance and angle winds on a moving vehicle are minimized by forcing air at relatively high velocity up through a transverse nozzle system extending across the vehicle's front and providing a means for directing a portion of said air through a vented duct along the vehicle's roof. Air from the nozzle system follows the front contour of the vehicle up and across the windshield and further tends to flow back along the vehicle's roof. Oncoming air in front of the vehicle also follows this air stream along the contour of the vehicle. A low pressure region is thereby created to the vehicle's front. A portion of the front air enters the duct that extends along the vehicle's roof. Air entering and exiting through top vents in the duct tends to control boundary air across and along the vehicle's roof and assist in filling the void to the vehicle's rear.
