DEAR FRIENDS! We are happy to offer you a brand new, unique invention, a great achievement of the Russian designers, a fully amphibian system of support-running elements called TESH transformable worms. Exploration of unknown areas and out-of-the-way places has always been an attractive challenge for man. In Russia, with its multitude of immense woods and bogs, tundras and steppes, rivers and mountains, and a shortage of highly developed transport infrastructures, the problem of access to many of its territories is pressing as never before. This is particularly the case with prospecting and developing new mineral reserves, the geological survey and the mining industry. The new invention made by the Russian designers, the TESH support-running gear for vehicles, will let you overcome natural obstacles on your way and easily access any place on the ground and on the water, no matter how nasty the weather may be! TESH will facilitate work of construction and special equipment, and greatly reduce your fuel and maintenance expenses. TESH is a result of conversion of the worm. It combines functions of a drive wheel, track mover, paddle wheel and water jet propeller. While taking on a controllable torque, it imparts proper thrust to the vehicle on various surfaces and at different speeds. TESH helps a vehicle to move from one medium to another without any preparation or selection of a right place for it. Besides, it has a shock-absorption and suspension system that protects TESH from damages and losing contact with the surface. Among other TESH's features are maneuverability, fully amphibian type, outstanding durability and easy maintenance. The operation range of TESH gear is very wide, including radio-controlled toys, kinematic systems for playing machines, new generations of military vehicles, and so on. The possible fields of application of TESH are described below in greater detail. This Website was created to popularize and sell the new experimental all-terrain concept. First, we are going to set up limited production of radio-controlled models, where possible kinematic schemes of control over TESH transformations should be determined, and advantages and disadvantages of the whole concept should be identified. For this purpose we have prepared a set of assembly drawings of the very first model, and a dummy of the protection cover with some military style features. Why not get the FIRST EVER prototype of the All-Terrain Vehicle of the Future? If sufficient investment is made, we are going to design and manufacture a sample of a real-scale all-terrain vehicle. All rights to the intellectual property presented in this site are reserved by the Russian patents. Also, a relevant international claim to facilitate application of patent claims in western countries has been sent. There are negotiations with British company at the moment that produces Amalgam models. We plan to put on market the first prototype by the spring of 2006.
