==LOGISTICS SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18536161 titled 'LOGISTICS SYSTEM

'''Simplified Explanation:'''
The patent application describes a logistics system with a large vehicle, a small vehicle, and a container that can be used on both vehicles by adjusting its legs.

* The container can be received on the large vehicle with its long side along a transverse direction and moved longitudinally using a first movement arrangement.
* The container can also be received on the small vehicle with its long side along a longitudinal direction and moved longitudinally using a second movement arrangement.
* The container has adjustable legs that can be deployed or retracted to facilitate its placement on different vehicles.

'''Key Features and Innovation:'''
* Versatile container design for use on both large and small vehicles.
* Adjustable legs for easy transition between vehicles.
* Efficient movement arrangements for longitudinal transport.

'''Potential Applications:'''
The technology can be applied in various logistics and transportation systems where containers need to be transferred between different types of vehicles.

'''Problems Solved:'''
The innovation addresses the challenge of using containers on multiple vehicles by providing a flexible and adjustable solution.

'''Benefits:'''
* Increased efficiency in logistics operations.
* Versatility in container usage across different vehicles.
* Simplified handling and transportation processes.

'''Commercial Applications:'''
The technology can be utilized in industries such as shipping, warehousing, and distribution to streamline container transport and improve overall operational efficiency.

'''Prior Art:'''
Readers can explore prior patents related to container transportation systems and logistics solutions to understand the evolution of similar technologies.

'''Frequently Updated Research:'''
Stay informed about advancements in container handling technologies and logistics systems to enhance operational capabilities and efficiency.

'''Questions about the Technology:'''
1. How does the adjustable leg feature of the container improve its usability across different vehicles?
2. What are the potential cost-saving benefits of using this innovative logistics system?


==Original Abstract Submitted==

The invention relates to a logistics system having a large vehicle, a small vehicle and a container. According to the invention, in order to allow containers to be used on different vehicles in an improved manner, the container can be received, with a long side oriented along a transverse direction of the large vehicle, on said large vehicle and, interacting with same via a first movement arrangement, can be moved along a longitudinal direction of the large vehicle, said container can furthermore be received, with the long side oriented along a longitudinal direction of the small vehicle, on said small vehicle and, interacting with same via a second movement arrangement, can be moved along the longitudinal direction of the small vehicle, and said container has multiple legs which, in order for the container to be received on a vehicle, are adjustable from a deployed position into a retracted position.
