Abstract

An innovative hexagonet provides a unique surface structure to achieve optimal tribological performance of any solid objects. The hexagonet comprises fractal hexagons and each fractal hexagon include regular hexagons in fractal form that can reduce friction and improve interactions of an object with any other objects and environment, thereby increasing the performance and reliability of the object by increasing balance and consistency in motion and at rest. Once integrated to the object, the hexagonet can form a protective surface which is repellent to other matter, thus, providing slippery, anti-fouling and anti-bacterial properties. Additionally, the protective surface creates a tribological effect which significantly reduces heat and disturbance, contamination and wear and tear resulting in reduction of energy consumption of the object. Further, the versatile and effective hexagonet can provide various applications to the object in solid-to-solid, solid-to-liquid, solid-to-air interactions, etc.

Claims (20)

1 . A hexagonet for providing optimal surface tribology comprising:

at least one fractal hexagon;

a solid object;

each fractal hexagon being exteriorly positioned on the solid object; and

each fractal hexagon comprising a plurality of hexagons.

2 . The hexagonet for providing optimal surface tribology comprising as claimed in claim 1 comprising:

the plurality of hexagons comprising concentric hexagons.

3 . The hexagonet for providing optimal surface tribology comprising as claimed in claim 1 comprising:

the plurality of hexagons comprising nonconcentric hexagons.

4 . The hexagonet for providing optimal surface tribology comprising as claimed in claim 1 comprising:

the each of the plurality of hexagons comprising an outermost hexagon and an innermost hexagon;

the outermost hexagon of the plurality of hexagons being positioned flush with exterior surface of the solid object; and

the innermost hexagon of the plurality of hexagons being interiorly positioned in the solid object.

5 . The hexagonet for providing optimal surface tribology comprising as claimed in claim 1 comprising:

the at least one fractal hexagon being exteriorly attached to the solid object.

6 . The hexagonet for providing optimal surface tribology comprising as claimed in claim 1 comprising:

the at least one fractal hexagon comprising at least one partial fractal hexagon; and

each partial fractal hexagon comprising a plurality of partial hexagons.

7 . The hexagonet for providing optimal surface tribology comprising as claimed in claim 6 comprising:

the at least one fractal hexagon being terminally positioned on the solid object.
