Active tire spoiler system and method

1. An active tire spoiler system, comprising:

a first tire spoiler;

a second tire spoiler; and

a control module including a controller configured to displace said first tire spoiler and said second tire spoiler between a stowed position and a deployed position, wherein said control module includes a first actuator connected to said first tire spoiler and a second actuator connected to said second tire spoiler, wherein said first actuator includes a first rotary drive motor, a first jack screw rotated by said first rotary drive motor and a first nut engaged with said first jack screw and fixed to said first tire spoiler, and wherein said second actuator includes a second rotary drive motor, a second jack screw rotated by said second rotary drive motor and a second nut engaged with said second jack screw and fixed to said second tire spoiler.

2. The active tire spoiler system of claim 1 , further including a first support for said first tire spoiler and a second support for said second tire spoiler.

3. The active tire spoiler system of claim 2 , wherein said first support includes a first guide track and said second support includes a second guide track.

4. The active tire spoiler system of claim 3 , further including a first follower on said first tire spoiler and a second follower on said second tire spoiler.

5. The active tire spoiler system of claim 4 , wherein said first rotary drive motor is carried on said first support and said second rotary drive motor is carried on said second support.

6. The active tire spoiler system of claim 5 , wherein said first guide track is a first elongated channel having a first T-shaped cross section and said second guide track is a second elongated channel having a second T-shaped cross section.

7. The active tire spoiler system of claim 4 , wherein said controller is configured to (a) include a first data input for motor vehicle speed data and (b) displace said first tire spoiler and said second tire spoiler into said deployed position when said motor vehicle speed data exceeds a predetermined speed.

8. The active tire spoiler system of claim 7 , wherein said controller is configured to (a) include a second data input for ambient temperature data and (b) disable displacement of said first tire spoiler and said second tire spoiler to said deployed position when said ambient temperature data falls within a predetermined temperature range.

9. The active tire spoiler system of claim 8 , wherein said controller is configured to include a third data input for drive train mode status data.
