VISION MARINE TECHNOLOGIES FILES U.S. PATENT APPLICATION FOR DUAL-MODE ELECTRIC OUTBOARD TRIM CONTROL

Vision Marine Technologies Inc. has filed a new U.S. patent application relating to dual-mode trim-control technology for electric outboard propulsion systems. The filing is directed to supporting trim operation from both local outboard-side controls and compatible vessel-side electronic control systems.

The application addresses practical operating scenarios in which boat owners, manufacturers, dealers and service technicians may need to adjust the position of an outboard during trailering, launching, docking, storage, commissioning or maintenance, including under vessel power states in which full propulsion-system activation may not be desired. The disclosed technology is directed to improving the integration of trim functionality within an electric outboard architecture while supporting operator convenience, serviceability and power-management objectives.

The new filing expands Vision Marine's intellectual-property work surrounding the E-Motion high-voltage electric marine propulsion platform. The E-Motion platform was engineered specifically for marine applications and integrates the electric motor, high-voltage battery architecture, power electronics, cooling systems, controls, safety systems and digital helm interface required for high-performance electric boating. The proposed trim-control technology is intended to complement this system-level approach by incorporating a familiar outboard function within the broader electric propulsion and vessel-control architecture.

"Marine-specific electric propulsion requires that the full outboard system -- from high-voltage power and controls to practical ownership and service functions -- operate as an integrated architecture," said Alexandre Mongeon, chief executive officer of Vision Marine. "This application reflects our approach to developing trim-control technology that can support both local and vessel-side electronic control pathways while addressing the real operating conditions encountered at the trailer, dock and service bay. These practical functions are an important part of the engineering work required to support electric marine propulsion integration and the ownership experience."

The filing adds to Vision Marine's portfolio of patent applications and intellectual-property work relating to the E-Motion platform, including propulsion controls, outboard integration, power management, cooling systems, safety functions, fault detection, component authentication and secure vessel communications.

The patent application is pending and remains subject to examination by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. No assurance can be given regarding the scope, timing or outcome of any pending patent application.
