KNOW THE AMFIBI VEHICLE TECHNOLOGY: HISTORY, TYPE AND DEVELOPMENT (English Version)


KNOW THE AMFIBI VEHICLE TECHNOLOGY: HISTORY, TYPE AND DEVELOPMENT

           Maybe you've imagined to have a car that is agile on the ground and fast in the water, but can there be a car that can run on water? With this rapid technological advancement, all things can be realized, right? One of the car companies in California has created a new invention that changes the world of automotive view. They created a Panther that is an agile car on a highway, but it is also very fast in water, is that right?

Phanter Amphibious Car

History of Water Car
The amphibious vehicle allegedly appeared in the mid 1800s, when an American named Oliver Evans created a steam-powered device that was successfully operated for more than a mile on the streets of Philadelphia and sailed in the Delaware River. The vehicle was called the Amphibolus Orukter and was the first amphibian of a steam engine ever made, but it was used as a cleaning dock by people of that era. And in mid-1910 William Mazzei used a Hydromotor or hydrometer engine which was driven by a continental engine that could cover distances of up to 60 mph on land and 25 mph on water and the idea of ​​William Mazzei was continued by George Monnot who finally created Hydrocar that combines boats, cars and trucks and this happened just before the first world war and finally the progress that occurred at that time was stopped because this vehicle was used as a military combat vehicle

Water car

The discovery of a water car or commonly called an amphibious car is actually nothing new in the automotive world. In the 1961 era there was a car company that managed to create an amphibious car that could be used for land and sea travel. The car is named the amphicar from a German company, but did you know that this car was successful and sold in the market that year, and according to the data, amphicar had sold around 3,872 units.

Cars like the amphicar are indeed unique and able to attract the attention of automotive enthusiasts, but the amphibious car has many disadvantages so in 1999 a man named Dave March planned to make a water car that was faster and more agile. He carried out several developments for development for 11 years, until in 2010 he succeeded in creating a new discovery named Python.

TYPES OF AMFIBI VEHICLES:

Schwimmwagen
Schwimmwagen Is a gem amphibious vehicle that was mass produced by Ferdinand Porsche, and during the war Porsche created the Kubelwagen which was grounded in mobility and the severity of the war that was changed and made capable of wading through water and in the end the caramel was converted into Schimmimmagen.

Amphicar
Amphicar Is an amphibious vehicle that has two four-seat convertible doors equipped with folded fabric above and has a speed of up to 7 knots above water and 70 mph (110 km / h) on land, which has a 1.21 four-cylinder overhead camshaft engine sourced from triumph . And the engine is placed on the back of the car and easily two nylon propellers are mounted under the car, the power generated is 43hp at 4,750 rpm.

Aquada
Aquada is an amphibious vehicle that has been through research for seven years and unlike amphicar, Aquada uses a jet system that produces a speed of around 175 hp using a V6 system paired with five-speed automatic transmission with reverse, and power steering helps handle the two worlds.

Humdinga
Humdinga Is an open-air amphibious type SUV that is designed and manufactured by gibbs technology that was created specifically to access remote areas that pass land or water and when operating in humdinga land can travel 100mil / hour (160km / h) and above humdinga water can operate using jet boat propulsion systems with speeds of 40 miles / h (64 km / h) and humdinga weigh around 200 kg which have two independent air suspension wheels that use gasoline and have a length of 5,400 mm, height 1,850 mm and width 200 mm, and while humdinga can carry as many as five passengers and have luggage that is capable of carrying goods, in its making humdinga takes eight years and more than ten million human hours to develop its technology.

Therinspeed Splash
Therinspeed Splash Is an amphibious vehicle capable of accessing three realms, namely land, water, and air where therinspeed is inspired by a sports toy created by M. cylinderknecht which has sophisticated sensors in its use and in operating water can reach a top speed of 80 km per jam (about 45 knots), air can float as high as 60 cm above water and land to reach a maximum speed of around 200 km / hr. And this vehicle is classified into an environmentally friendly vehicle because it uses fuel that contains almost all methane and is almost close to zero sulfur content and can be said to be the first amphibious vehicle to be equipped with future-oriented engine technology.

Amphibious Bus

Amphibious Bus

Traveling on a bus / bus is certainly something we have done, at least we have taken a bus. What if the city tour uses an amphibious bus? One of the sensations offered by the city of Rotterdam is to travel around the city while crossing the water using amphibious buses.

The tour is called Splashtour Rotterdam, where you will be invited to travel around the city for 75 minutes and navigate the river Meuse for one hour by Amphibious bus. Splashtour Rotterdam provides a memorable and unforgettable travel experience.

Squba
Swiss company Rinspeed has developed a new concept car called "sQuba", which is the first eco-friendly dive car in the world. This emission-free electric vehicle is capable of driving on the road like a normal car, but can also be used as an amphibious vehicle capable of diving, reaching a depth of 10 meters.

sQuba

This car has three separate electric motors. One motorbike moves the car while on land, and two other motors are used for driving underwater. Because "sQuba" uses an electric engine, it will not pollute the sea while diving

sQuba

sQuba Is a type of amphibious vehicle that is capable of operating in two realms, namely land and waters and is able to operate under water (sink) as deep as 10m. This vehicle was inspired by the James Bond film "the spy who loved me" in 1977 and at that time scene after scene that used the vehicle was only animated but after thirty (30) years after the film was made the fact that this vehicle was right true and created by Frank M. Rinderknecht. In the altered engine parts all become electric-powered motors, and driven by two jet drives in front of the breathing vehicle through a special rotating grid of HS genion (to open and close water intakes), the outlet rotating jet is designed to be very light but twist resistant using high nano material technology so that it is called nano tubes. And while in the water the vehicle is able to provide air for the driver so that the driver can breathe air easily because the vehicle is equipped with an integrated compression tank, as the security of this car is intentionally made with a roof that can be opened so that something happens or in an emergency the driver left the vehicle. And this vehicle is also included in a vehicle that is environmentally friendly because the vehicle is zero emissions or does not produce exhaust emissions.

Python
Python is the latest generation of amphibious vehicles, made by Dave March which is produced by the California watercar automotive company which has a speed of about 96 km / hr faster than the speedboat and how it operates before driving over the python driver must neutralize gear gears and then activate the steering wheel water jet and enter the wheel and if you want to operate, just carry out the reverse step. The 1.7-kilogram machine can produce 640 horsepower and while the engine to operate on water is produced by a Dominator jet and the power produced is around 500 hp, this vehicle is also equipped with a jet engine that makes it capable of crashing waves.

Development of Python Water Car

Python

The water car Python is the fastest amphibious car in the world. Maybe you ask how fast is this car? This car can run on water with a speed of 100 Km / h, but you know what is even more impressive than this car is when he drove on land. After testing it turned out that this water car was able to travel at speeds of 200 Km / h in the time of accessibility for 4 seconds, great isn't it? So it is not surprising that at this time the gueness world record presents Python as the fastest water car in the world.

Python has specifications as follows:
• Has a passenger capacity of 5 people
• This car uses a rear engine named Corvette LS1-LS9
• Using a standard 4-speed transmission system
• This water car can go fast because it uses a Jet engine
• For braking problems this car uses disc brakes for all four wheels
• For steering problems this car also uses the power stearing to be very driven
• This car also uses retrack wheels with a pneumatic system
• For fuel consumption, he uses BBM which has 91 octane injection
• This car uses a Closed Cooling System
• Has 2 doors
• This car can travel in water at a speed of 100 Km / h
• For on land this car can drive at speeds of 200 Km / h

Although this car weighs more than 1 ton, but with a body made of hull or husk, this powerful car is able to float and speed up on the water. But with the discovery of a sophisticated water car that still makes Dave March still worried and wants to make a water car that is friendly and can be enjoyed by everyone. Until he made the second generation Python named Panther.

Panther Development

Phanter

Phanter is a water car that uses a simpler and smaller jeep concept, if compared to the first generation this car is very different for size problems. But for engine problems and the others this car is not inferior to Python. This car is sold at a price of USD 135,000 per unit and has been purchased by several world millionaires such as Prince Dubai, Taipan from Silicon Valley, and several other millionaires.

Phanter

The specifications of this water car are:

  • Using a Honda V6 V-Tec engine
  • Has the ability of 250 Horse Power
  • Using a machine with a 24 Valve SOHC system
  • Using a Variable Valve Timing & Lift Electronic Control system
  • Using a 4-speed transmission system
  • Using the Real Wheel Drive system
  • Able to walk at a speed of 45 Km / h 
  • And able to drive on land with a speed of 80 Km / h
  • This car uses a chassis made of Fiberglass hull with epoxy-coated tubular chromoly steel frame.
  •  Has a capacity of 4 passengers


The young water car Panter car is very suitable to be used to relax with family, relatives, and friends. Then how do you choose Python or Panther as your water car? The choice is yours, but what is clear is that both Python and Panther are both great inventions in the automotive world.

PMI Amphibious Vehicle
It is an amphibious vehicle used by the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) to facilitate providing assistance to victims who have experienced natural disasters or disasters such as those used in Merapi disasters that have not happened recently. And this vehicle can pass through terrain that is difficult to pass by ordinary vehicles because these vehicles do not use tires to run but are similar to war-specific vehicles such as tanks that use steel chains to walk, so this vehicle is able to pass steep terrain and waters / river.

Squadski / Quadski
Squadski / Quadski is a vehicle that combines between jetski and atv where this vehicle is used for naturalists who have land area and waters and this squadski is made by gibbstech.

Quadski

This one vehicle was also issued by the same manufacturer as Biski, the Gibbs company. The difference from Biski is that this vehicle is atv type (has four wheels) and can be used on rough terrain. In addition, this vehicle is very fast, both on land and in water because it has a 1.3-liter BMW Motorrad engine.
Quadski

Quadski provides a pleasant experience, where these vehicles can be used off road, through sandy areas, and also speeding in the water. And also like Biski, the vehicle's wheels also enter the body when entering the water, by pressing the button. The speed is 72 km / h both on land or in water.

Sherp ATV (Mini Monster truck)
This box truck that resembles a toy design has the definition of a real monster vehicle, because it is capable of crashing in almost any condition, has two seats and a wide cargo area, can climb obstacles more than half a meter high, and can swim easily thanks to the size of the tires very large. So as to make this Russian-made vehicle able to float above the water surface.

Sherp ATV

Even the vehicle's tires are able to fill themselves when they are short of wind / leak. The Sherp ATV also has a durable polymer coating on the outside to add toughness, a 15.3 gallon fuel tank, and optional additions such as another 15 gallon tank on wheels, generators, independent heaters and high-powered lights.

Biski

Biski

Biski is a motor that can be used to drive on the road normally and can also function as a jet sky. By pressing a button, Biski can change from a motorcycle used on the road to a vehicle that can move in water in less than five seconds. At that time, the rear wheel was pulled into the vehicle body and the dual-jet water booster instantly ignited and moved the Biski through the water field.

Biski

From the design of this vehicle it is indeed impressed, especially in the middle to rear body. So if you use it on the road it will take up a lot of space. And also the tire size is relatively small when compared to the large motor body. Seen on the promo video, the bottom is about the ground when it comes out of the water and towards the mainland.

UHAC (Ultra Heavy-Lift Amphibious Connector)

US Marine amphibious truck

This savage monster scale vehicle is an embodiment of the ambition to perfect war vehicle technology. As in the Korean war, American soldiers were forced to leave their amphibious vehicles to cross muddy areas. With UHAC all terrain will be easily passed, with a design like a tank that can hit obstacles, even able to pass obstacles as high as 3 meters.

UHAC will later have the function of transporting several tanks through the sea to land, and also bringing the tank back to the aircraft carrier. Equipped with a high capacity engine to be able to hit 3 meters more waves. Uhac full scale will be able to carry the equivalent of three M1A1 tanks, or cargo that weighs 200 tons, at speeds of 40 kilometers / hour. Its length will reach 25 meters, its height is 10 meters and has a distance of 320 kilometers.
