Assignee: SHIFT WINGS LIMITED
Field: Transport (Mechanical engineering)
Classification: CPC B  Y | IPC B

Claim 0:
1. A movable wing/aerofoil assembly for shifting where and how much downforce is exerted on a moving vehicle, the moveable wing/aerofoil assembly includes:
a) a wing/aerofoil;
b) a carriage connected to and supporting the wing/aerofoil; and
c) a carriage support adapted to allow the carriage to move along the carriage support, the carriage support is mounted and positioned on a vehicle such that the carriage is able to move laterally relative to the longitudinal extent of the vehicle,, wherein the movable wing/aerofoil assembly allows the wing/aerofoil to move laterally relative to the vehicle as the vehicle is being driven such that the lateral movement and positioning of the wing/aerofoil on the vehicle corresponds to the optimum or desired aerodynamic downforce required by the moving vehicle and allows for the dynamic adjustment of the position and magnitude of aerodynamic downforce applied to the vehicle relative to the direction the vehicle is moving.
