◉ Introduction and objectives:
In this article, we will briefly explain a new solution for reducing fuel and energy consumption in a variety of electric and gasoline vehicles using a "Gravity Suspension Chassis".
In all cars, the chassis design is of particular importance as the center of pressure and the location of other parts and it is considered one of the important parts of automotive engineering. In fact, the chassis acts as the backbone of the overall structure of the car and has the important task of bearing various weights and distributing forces while moving or stopping. This vital part plays an important role in protecting the aerodynamic balance and stability of all types of cars and it ensures the strength and long-term support of other parts mounted on the chassis. The engineering and principled design of the chassis makes the car have a uniform weight distribution, which makes it easier to control the car in different driving conditions.

Structurally, chassis are divided into six categories: Body-on-frame chassis, Unibody chassis, Space Frame chassis, Hybrid Chassis, Ladder chassis, and Backbone chassis. In the Body-on-frame chassis design, a separate frame is the connection point for the vehicle body and is often used in heavy-duty vehicles. Monocoque chassis are usually used in light vehicles which the body and chassis are designed and built as a single unit. In some expensive cars, aluminum and carbon fiber are usually used in the alloy structure of the Space Frame chassis tubes. Hybrid Chassis are used in vehicles that require equal performance on and off-road. Ladder chassis are for vehicles that require high strength, impact resistance, and bulky loads, and finally the low-production Backbone chassis, which consists of smaller diameter concrete columns and is manufactured in limited quantities for mining trucks.
Although each type of chassis plays a fundamental and basic role in protecting the balance of a car, but according to technical tests in harsh conditions, the Body-on-frame chassis usually has better dynamic and aerodynamic performance due to its high flexibility. In the performance of a chassis, the alloy of the chassis material also plays an important role, for example, a steel chassis has higher strength but is heavier and on the other hand, an aluminum chassis is lighter but more expensive. It is clear that a good and high-quality chassis can ensure increased safety and protection of passengers while protecting the balance of the vehicle and extending the life of the suspension system components, but with all these advantages and benefits of chassis, due to their complex design and high weight, they are considered one of the main factors in increasing fuel consumption in cars. This led me to design and create the idea of designing a different and specific chassis to reduce fuel consumption of all types of vehicles.

In designing this idea, I have tried to achieve a powerful physics of forward drag due to the pull of gravity while keeping the engineering strength and flexibility of this new chassis in the face of various special road or off-road conditions. With this idea, we will achieve about a 40 percent reduction in fuel consumption of all types of vehicles because excessive pressure on the engine to propel the vehicle forward is eliminated and the vehicle will be in a state of constant forward drag at all times. Depending on the total weight of the different parts of the vehicle, the forward drag in this new chassis will vary, meaning that the greater the total weight of the vehicle (excluding the weight of the chassis), the greater the forward drag and consequently the gravitational pull of the chassis will increase, as further details of this invention are mentioned in the technical description section.
One of my main goals in creating various and creative scientific ideas in the use of clean energies is to promote a culture of responsibility for keeping the environment clean and human health. It is clear that the interest and attention of only a small part of the global community to the use of clean energies has never been enough, and there is still a need for targeted programs for the comprehensive use of methods to reduce energy consumption. I hope that my idea will also be considered and developed as a creative and environmentally friendly effort to reduce fuel and energy consumption (especially in the automotive industry) by using the powerful and clean force of gravity.

◉ Technical description of the invention:
In the "Sciences Planet Car", we are faced with two drag forces. The first force is related to the effect of gravity on the suspended chassis, and the second drag force is related to the drag coefficient and the aerodynamic force that appears while the car is moving and its path is opposite to the movement of the car. In the "Sciences Planet" body concept, I used sharp lines with smooth surfaces and a voluminous theme to create a different grandeur and beauty in the design, while also helping the aerodynamic performance of the car while moving. When a car is moving, it actually cuts through the air it encounters and the amount of air resistance depends on the body design and the speed of the car. Due to this, the smooth aerodynamics along with the slope of the "Sciences Planet" body are at the lowest drag coefficient, which results in smooth movement without wasting electrical energy or fossil fuels.

As can be seen in the video at the end of the article and the images attached to this article, the "Sciences Planet Car" has a slope in its body design. This intentional slope is created by two factors, the first is the special and sloping design of the car's chassis and the second is the size of the rear wheel relative to the front wheel. Both of these factors are key to my idea for the "Gravity Suspension Chassis" because each of these factors complements the increase in forward drag of the car. The drag coefficient of the "Sciences Planet car" body is estimated to be between 0.30 and 0.40. Also, the lift and downforce force, due to the two air channels designed at the end of the body and the rear spoiler, create the required downforce for this car, which is at a standard level considering the body concept of the "Sciences Planet Car".

Overall, important aspects have been considered in the sloping design of the "Sciences Planet" body, such as; lower fuel consumption, higher acceleration and speed, stronger body, more energy-efficient electric generator system, much greater control and adhesion to the road at high speeds, better battery panel cooling system, unique and futuristic design, and less wear and tear on consumable parts due to much lower pressure in air collision. In explaining the engineering reason for the large rear wheel, I should point out that the larger radius of the rear rims leads to a higher height of the bridge between the car body and the rear wheels, which is called the rear axle of the car. The rear axle in this vehicle is connected to two chassis suspension rails, which allows us to achieve the proper slope for forward chassis drag in the "Sciences Planet Car" without adding additional weight structure to the chassis.
In addition to increasing the height of the rear axle and creating a slope in the chassis, the large rear wheel also creates an aerodynamic balance on the specific body of this car because by creating a slope, the air flow moves and rolls better on the flat surfaces of the body. On the other hand, the large rear wheels also help to create greater resistance to impacts on the base, bushings and bearings, and ultimately contribute to a smoother, more grippy and safer ride. The large rear wheels not only stabilize the car's grip on the road at high speeds, but also add to the aesthetics of the "Sciences Planet" concept. It should be noted that without creating more height in the rear axle of this car by using larger wheels, the efficiency and proper functioning of the physics of the "gravity chassis" is not possible, which I will discuss in more detail below how it works.

As can be seen in the video at the end of this article, the "Sciences Planet" has two chassis consisting of; a fixed chassis connected to the wheels and a suspension chassis connected to the engine, cabin and body. The fixed chassis has two parallel rails with a total of 24 rollers, 12 of which are mounted in the groove of one rail. The fixed chassis also has two large and sturdy support arms at the front of each rail, two sturdy support arms at the rear of each rail, and six automatic hydraulic locks on the two outer sides for connection to the suspension chassis. In the design of the "Sciences Planet", due to the electric nature of the vehicle, the rear axle and the front axle are mounted and stabilized on a fixed chassis.

The support arms at the rear and front of the two suspension rails are responsible for stabilizing the fixed chassis. In this way, the suspension chassis, which is located on top of the fixed chassis, rolls forward and moves after being placed on it, which is caused by the slope of the rear axle height and the drag of the earth's gravity but when it hits and is placed in the chamber of the holding arm, it stops moving. The powerful gravitational drag force caused by the suspension system and the rolling of the upper chassis (suspended chassis) on the lower chassis (fixed chassis) continues continuously. In the absence of an obstacle (automatic intelligent brake), both chassis are pulled forward and make the car move because both chassis are on the wheels of the car.

As can be seen in the video at the end of this article, the suspension chassis is where the battery panel, two rear and front electric motors, the aids and the steering box are located, which are much heavier in terms of weight than the lower chassis (fixed chassis). This weight difference results in a stronger and more powerful drag of the suspended chassis on the slope of the fixed chassis. The weight required for drag and gravity pull on a fixed chassis slope increases significantly with the addition of the weight of the internal body structure and the external body structure. In other words, based on the inherent laws of physics, we need this weight difference between the two fixed chassis and the suspended chassis to use the law of drag and slope to pull the car forward without using the engine or any auxiliary propulsion.
The interior equipment of the passenger cabin as well as all the accessories of the car body are located on the suspension chassis. We achieve a weight difference between the upper chassis (suspended chassis) and the lower chassis (fixed chassis) by adding the weight of the passenger cabin and the car body to the weight of other equipment such as battery panels and car engines that are all located on the suspended chassis. This means that the suspended chassis will have a much greater weight than the fixed chassis, which is actually the key to using gravity to drag and pull the heavier mass. Since all equipment fixed on the suspended chassis has a similar center of gravity on the two rails of the suspended chassis, due to the very heavy weight of the contents of the suspended chassis, the upper (suspended) chassis rolls on the rollers of the lower chassis rails (fixed chassis) towards the drag of gravity to reach the lower level.

In this situation, if there is no obstacle in the rolling path, the suspended chassis with its contents will pass over the fixed chassis and hit the ground but as mentioned earlier, to use this law of physics and create a forward driving force, two holders (chassis holding obstacles) are mounted in the front of the fixed chassis to prevent the suspended chassis from slipping and falling by being placed in its chamber. With this system, the vehicle will be permanently pulled forward due to the mass pull of the contents of the suspension chassis. This forward pull and constant movement towards gravity reduces the strain on the engine's torque output, allowing the vehicle to move forward without using more energy or fuel. The forward gravitational drag of the vehicle increases at high speeds, which results in a significantly reduced engine energy consumption.
In the stationary state, a separate brake system is mounted on the wheels, which is similar to the handbrake system plus the P gear in automatic cars. With this system, when the vehicle is stationary, an automatic sensor activates the "gravity brake" to lock the wheel shafts and prevent the vehicle from dragging due to gravity. In this way, the weight of the vehicle is controlled and stopped by a "gravity brake" attached to the wheel shafts, instead of forcing the weight of the vehicle onto the transmission lock system. The activation of the "gravity brake" system is combined simultaneously with the brake pedal system so that during long stops, as soon as the brake pedal is released, the "gravity brake" system is also released and the car moves forward. When the driver exits the vehicle and the vehicle is turned off, the "gravity brake" system is automatically activated to bring the vehicle to a standstill.

Like other inventions, this invention also has the potential for further development and optimization in the use of free and clean energy, and by commercializing it, we can make a significant contribution to reducing energy consumption and, consequently, reducing the concentration of carbon dioxide in the Earth's stratosphere.
