Chery's "ejection seat" patent exposure: can ejected people into the air during a car accident!Netizen: You have to be a convertible

Daily Economic News, in the classic "007" series, the protagonist James Bond's modified car Aston Martin DB5 has a cool function: under emergencies, the seat can be ejected, in the movie, in the movie, This function has repeatedly helped James Bond to stay away from the deep waters.

Although this design is cool, it is more for the needs of movie plots. In real life, there is no mass production car to carry this technology. However, recently, Qixinbao showed that Chery Automobile Co., Ltd. applied for the patent of "car separation of ejection seats and vehicles".

According to patented abstracts, automotive separate ejection seats include seat body, connection mechanism, ejection mechanism and controller. Among them, the controller is used to control the connection mechanism separately when the collision signal exceeds the setting value, and at the same time control the ejection mechanism to ejected the upper seat up into the air. The present invention allows the people in the car to leave the collision vehicles in a timely manner to avoid or reduce the casualties of the vehicle when they are hit by huge impact.

However, some people say that we must put their eyes in the long run, and the future is the world of flying cars. Some netizens directly called the Internet buzzword: "Wuhu takes off!"

Generally speaking, seat ejection technology is mainly used on fighter jets. When the plane is killed, the pilot pops up the cabin by relying on the power device under the seat, and then opens the parachute to land safely.

For cars, there are many complicated factors that have not been mass -produced. For example, can you ejection in the underground parking lot? What should I do if I pop up when I encounter a high -pressure line? How to land safely after ejection and collide again? As well as the cost of the ejection seat and the cost of vehicle maintenance after the ejection.

In fact, the patent opened by the brain is not just Chery. In 2016, Google applied for a car patent similar to protecting pedestrians that are similar to "sticking people on the hood". The principle is that once the car hit the pedestrian, the front of the car will firmly stick the pedestrian to the hood through adhesive coating to avoid secondary damage such as crushing by pedestrians. The patent introduction says that its principle is a bit like a flying paper, and it is a bit like a double -sided tape.

For car companies, these patents can be regarded as the technical reserves of enterprises in research and development, and they may not necessarily be applied to mass production cars. But I have to say that aside from the "gimmicks" and hotspots brought by some patents, many practical patent reserves may drive the sales of car companies to a certain extent.

Taking Chery as an example, its cumulative patent is about 23,000, of which nearly 1/3 of the invention patents are at the forefront of the automotive industry. In the past August, Chery Holding Group's sales were about 142,000 units, an increase of 111%year -on -year; in the first eight months of this year, the cumulative sales of Chery Holdings Group were about 749,000 units, an increase of 30%year -on -year. The sales target of Chery Holdings Group this year is to ensure 1.5 million vehicles and impact 2 million units. Last year, Chery Holding Group's sales of about 960,000 units throughout the year have not yet entered the "Million Club".

In order to achieve sales targets, Chery's Jetta, Chery and Starway brands are accelerating the launch rhythm of the product.

"Jetu is expected to achieve sales of more than 200,000 vehicles this year. Next year we must exceed 500,000 units. Chery will provide the best resource guarantee for Jettu. The challenge is that the production capacity of Jetu is insufficient. Consider how to tilt the production capacity towards the Great Saint of Jetu. "Yin Tongyue, chairman of Chery Holding Group, said at the press conference of the Great Saint.

On the same day of the listing of Jetta Dasheng, the Chery brand launched the Erizer 5 GT model. The new car launched a total of 3 models with a price range of 99,900 to 108,900 yuan. Productr.

It is worth mentioning that the launching rhythm of the new products of Chery high -end brand stars is also accelerating. Recently, 2023 Star Tu Lingyun was officially launched, and the price range of the new car was 147,900 to 182,900 yuan. At the same time, Starway Cars also announced the price of the Star Lingyun S CCPC champion version, which launched a total of two models, priced at 152,900 yuan and 172,900 yuan. According to the plan, Starway Cars will form a "4+3+2" product matrix through new products this year and next, namely 4 fuel vehicles, 3 hybrid models and 2 pure trains.

Driven by the three major brands of new car effects, Yin Tongyue publicly set a goal: "In September, the sales plan of Chery Holdings Group impacted 180,000 units." So can Chery's application of the patent of the ejection seats help its sales? The industry will wait and see.
