AIRCRAFT CATERING SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240051588 titled 'AIRCRAFT CATERING SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND DEVICES
Simplified Explanation
The disclosed invention is a trolley that includes a housing with a cavity, a handle coupled to the housing, a sensor coupled to the handle, a plurality of wheels coupled to the housing, and a brake system. The brake system is designed to lock a wheel in response to the hand being released from the handle, based on sensor data from the sensor. The trolley may also include a control system and/or a sanitization system.
- The trolley has a housing with a cavity, providing storage space.
- It has a handle for easy maneuverability.
- A sensor is connected to the handle, possibly for detecting the presence of a hand.
- The trolley has multiple wheels for smooth movement.
- A brake system is included to lock a wheel when the hand is released from the handle, based on sensor data.
- The trolley may have a control system for additional functionalities.
- It may also feature a sanitization system for maintaining cleanliness.
Potential Applications
- Supermarkets and retail stores can use this trolley for efficient shopping experiences.
- Airports and train stations can utilize this trolley for luggage transportation.
- Warehouses and factories can benefit from this trolley for moving goods.
- Hospitals and healthcare facilities can use this trolley for transporting medical equipment.
Problems Solved
- The brake system prevents the trolley from rolling away when the hand is released, ensuring safety and preventing accidents.
- The sensor provides an automated mechanism for activating the brake system, eliminating the need for manual intervention.
- The control system and sanitization system enhance the functionality and hygiene of the trolley.
Benefits
- Improved safety by preventing the trolley from rolling away.
- Increased convenience and ease of use with the handle and sensor mechanism.
- Enhanced control and additional features with the control system.
- Improved cleanliness and hygiene with the sanitization system.
