Integrated Operating Apparatus for Different Type Gates - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18354814 titled 'Integrated Operating Apparatus for Different Type Gates

Simplified Explanation

The integrated operating apparatus for different types of gates described in the abstract consists of a driving motor, a main shaft, a first clutch portion, and a second clutch portion. The first clutch portion is located at one side of the main shaft and is responsible for transmitting power to the first gate of a vehicle, while the second clutch portion is located at the other side of the main shaft and transmits power to the second gate of the vehicle. The first and second gates can be independently operated based on the engagement state of the first and second clutch portions.

  • Driving motor
  • Main shaft
  • First clutch portion with first clutch and first gear
  • Second clutch portion with second clutch and second gear
  • Independent operation of first and second gates based on clutch engagement state

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in various types of vehicles such as cars, trucks, and buses to control different types of gates independently.

Problems Solved

This technology solves the problem of efficiently operating multiple gates of a vehicle using a single integrated apparatus.

Benefits

The integrated operating apparatus simplifies the control of different gates in a vehicle, providing convenience and ease of use for the operator.

Potential Commercial Applications

"Integrated Operating Apparatus for Different Types of Gates in Vehicles" - Optimizing Gate Control for Vehicles

Possible Prior Art

There may be existing patents related to integrated gate control systems in vehicles, but specific prior art is not provided in the abstract.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology improve vehicle safety?

This technology can prevent accidents by allowing the operator to control different gates independently, ensuring safe entry and exit of passengers or cargo.

What is the expected maintenance schedule for this integrated operating apparatus?

Regular maintenance of the driving motor, clutches, and gears may be required to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the apparatus.


Original Abstract Submitted

An embodiment integrated operating apparatus for different types of gates includes a driving motor, a main shaft rotatable by the driving motor, a first clutch portion at a first side of the main shaft and configured to selectively transmit power to a first gate of a vehicle, the first clutch portion including a first clutch and a first gear selectively engaged with each other, and a second clutch portion at a second side of the main shaft and configured to selectively transmit power to a second gate of the vehicle, the second clutch portion including a second clutch and a second gear selectively engaged with each other, wherein the first and second gates are configured to be independently operated based on the first clutch portion being in an engaged state or a released state and the second clutch portion being in the engaged state or the released state.
