The Square Wheel Runs Faster Than The Round Wheel, So It's True!

Must the wheel be round? Do round wheels always run the fastest? A few years ago, when we are still the "Round wheel is the ultimate design" For the truth, an inventor named david patrick broke the routine, invented a strange-looking "Shark wheel. And it has been proven that on the ground with friction, "Shark wheel" Than the traditional round wheel rolling faster.

 

Soon, the "Shark wheel" Team, based on david's research, applied the design of the shark wheel to many fields, including sports equipment and material handling, and created many world-class products. Among them, the influence of the shark wheel on skateboarding is extraordinary.

 

For me, a non-technical person, it is a little difficult to describe the shape of the shark wheel. It looks like a mixture of a sphere and a cube, and the whole product consists of three main layers of structure. As it rolls, the wheel takes on two shape characteristics, with each layer creating a spiral shape. When the ground and the wheel are in contact and an external force is applied to the wheel, it can easily move forward.

In the first time to see this "Crooked" Wheel, many people do not avoid doubt. Can such a wheel really maintain balance? The answer is no. The pulley rolls as smoothly as a conventional wheel, and its single or multiple interlocking rings are based on a sine wave pattern. Compared to a conventional wheel of the same width, the sine wave pattern allows the wheel to have a thinner contact surface with the road, and the less unwanted drag it receives. This is why it runs faster.

So how is it really stable? Hearing is believing, seeing is believing, we can feel it through the motion picture.

The skateboard is able to walk on the gravel covered ground as if it were smooth, not only because of the high level of the little brother's skateboard, but also because the sine wave of the shark wheel can improve the "Grip" Of the side of the wheel on the ground. This allows it to run more smoothly and faster on rough and wet ground. Simply put, it allows us to fall on our heels less.

 

 

Even in the snow, the shark wheel can also run better, which gives skateboarders a good opportunity to try new ways to play.

When watching the video above, you can really guess the beginning but not the end. The high-speed skateboard, when suddenly encountered mud "Obstruction", through the player can simply adjust to resume operation, and not because of the binding wheel and let the skateboard lose control.

 

In order to make the player have a more wonderful experience, the company also designed for this wheel different hardness, each wheel hardness is mainly measured by hardness tester. Players can customize the finished product with different hardnesses according to their needs, and have a set of "Custom" Shark wheels just for themselves.

Whether it is the courage of the inventor to break the rules, or the real strength of the shark wheel, are worth our heartfelt admiration. If the circle is the most perfect figure in the world, then the shark wheel is the most perfect cube.

How nice, just a small wheel tells us: There is no most right truth in the world.
