Фабио Тальони (англ. Fabio Taglioni) — итальянский инженер, с чьей деятельностью в основном связана популярность итальянского производителя мотоциклов Ducati.

Краткая биография

Фабио Тальони родился 10 сентября 1920 года в городке Луго[1]. После Второй мировой войны Тальони разрабатывал двигатели для мотоциклов Ceccato и Mondial[2][3]. В 1954 году он стал главным инженером компании Ducati. Его разработки в Ducati всегда опережали конкурентов. Десмодромный привод клапанов (жесткие связи сопряженных движущихся объектов) с механизмом принудительного открывания и закрывания клапанов созданный еще в 1956 году, до сих пор используется при производстве мототехники. Именно это нововведение позволило двигателям Ducati превосходить конкурентов и по мощности и по скорости. Автором этого привода клапанов считают как раз Фабио Тальони. Первый его мотоцикл с десмодромным приводом клапанов вышел в 1956 году. Однако есть упоминания, что еще в 1954 году на гоночном Mercedes-Benz-В196 был установлен двигатель с подобным приводом.

Ушел из Ducati в 1989 году. 18 июля 2001 года умер в Болонье из-за остановки сердца[1].

I designed a 75 twin camshaft, which was then adjusted for the Giro d’Italia (a twin camshaft was a bit too heavy). So it was turned into a single camshaft and was used in the Giro d’Italia on several occasions, in the Milan – Taranto and lots of other races, under the Ceccato brand. That engine acted as my business card when I was introduced to Count Borselli, on his request. He was looking for a young engineer, with a certain level of experience. I told him that I didn’t have much experience but I showed him the finished engine and said that was what I could do. He said to me: “I’m not interested in the engine but I’m interested in you because I work with 125s and up. I can help you to sell it if that’s what you want to do but I’m not interested in it”. And in fact he did help me sell it to Ceccato. He let me go to Ceccato for the tuning and then I worked at Mondial for two years, until 1954, when I joined Ducati. At Mondial I tuned engines for the Giro d’Italia, 125s and 175s, and then I started work on what was then known as the “Bilancerino”, the 125 with exposed springs and a head similar to the one on the Ceccato. Then I produced the twin camshaft, which was the same as the Ceccato twin camshaft, on a Mondial, and then because of staffing problems I left Mondial and went to Ducati, where I still am today.».
