WORK VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18250624 titled 'WORK VEHICLE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a work vehicle with an electric drive source and a vehicle main body part that includes a loading part and a removable battery storage unit. The loading part can operate with respect to the vehicle main body part and is used to load objects. The removable battery storage unit extends in the opposite direction of the loading part and includes a storage section capable of storing a removable battery. The storage section has an opening in its upper part, which is oriented upward. The axis line along the battery attachment/removal direction of the storage section is inclined in either the first or second direction.
- The work vehicle has an electric drive source and a vehicle main body part.
- The vehicle main body part includes a loading part and a removable battery storage unit.
- The loading part extends in one direction and is used to load objects.
- The removable battery storage unit extends in the opposite direction and has a storage section for removable batteries.
- The storage section has an upward-oriented opening in its upper part.
- The axis line along the battery attachment/removal direction of the storage section is inclined in either the first or second direction.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Work vehicles used in industries such as construction, logistics, and agriculture.
- Electric vehicles that require removable batteries for extended operation.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Simplifies the process of attaching and removing batteries in work vehicles.
- Provides a convenient and efficient way to store and replace batteries during operation.
Benefits of this technology:
- Increases the flexibility and versatility of work vehicles by allowing easy battery replacement.

Original Abstract Submitted
A work vehicle includes an electric drive source, and a vehicle main body part to which a traveling part is provided. The vehicle main body part includes: a loading part that extends in a first direction and that can operate with respect to the vehicle main body part; and a removable battery storage unit that extends in a second direction which is the reverse direction of the first direction. The loading part loads an object to be loaded. The removable battery storage unit includes a storage section capable of storing a removable battery. An opening is formed in an upper part of the storage section. The opening is oriented upward, and an axis line along a battery attachment/removal direction of the storage section is inclined so as to be oriented in the first direction or the second direction.
