Mobility for Delivery - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17834034 titled 'Mobility for Delivery
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a mobility device for delivering articles, consisting of a frame, a chain member, a tray member, a wheel, and a driver. The chain member is movable relative to the frame and has a closed curve shape. It includes a standby section that remains fixed with respect to the frame. The tray member is coupled to the chain member and moves along with it. The wheel is attached to the lower portion of the frame, and the driver provides the driving force to the chain member.
- The mobility device has a frame with a chain member that can move up and down.
- The chain member has a closed curve shape and includes a standby section that remains fixed.
- A tray member is attached to the chain member and moves along with it.
- The device has a wheel attached to the frame for mobility.
- A driver provides the driving force to the chain member.
Potential Applications
- Delivery services: The mobility device can be used for efficient and automated delivery of articles in various industries, such as e-commerce, food delivery, and logistics.
- Warehousing: The device can be utilized in warehouses to transport items between different locations, improving efficiency and reducing manual labor.
- Hospital settings: The mobility device can be employed in hospitals to transport medical supplies, equipment, and patient records, enhancing workflow and reducing the strain on healthcare staff.
Problems Solved
- Manual labor reduction: The mobility device eliminates the need for manual transportation of articles, reducing physical strain and improving productivity.
- Efficiency improvement: By automating the delivery process, the device streamlines operations, reduces errors, and increases overall efficiency.
- Flexibility: The closed curve shape of the chain member allows the device to navigate through tight spaces and obstacles, making it suitable for various environments.
