SYSTEMS FOR POD MOVERS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17878328 titled 'SYSTEMS FOR POD MOVERS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system consisting of a main vehicle and a secondary vehicle that can be coupled to the main vehicle. The secondary vehicle has a wheel for movement and a body connected to the wheel. The body includes a set of retractable bars that can extend into receivers of the main vehicle when in a deactivated state. The retractable bars can also be retracted into the body and extend into a pod to lift and attach the pod when in an attached state.

  • The system includes a main vehicle and a secondary vehicle that can be connected together.
  • The secondary vehicle has a wheel for movement and a body attached to the wheel.
  • The body of the secondary vehicle contains a set of retractable bars.
  • The retractable bars can extend into receivers of the main vehicle when not in use.
  • The retractable bars can be retracted into the body of the secondary vehicle.
  • The retractable bars can also extend into a pod and lift the pod when attached.

Potential Applications:

  • Transportation systems where a secondary vehicle can be attached to a main vehicle for additional functionality or carrying capacity.
  • Delivery systems where a secondary vehicle can be used to transport packages or goods and easily attach to a main delivery vehicle.
  • Emergency response systems where a secondary vehicle can be quickly connected to a main vehicle to provide additional equipment or resources.

Problems Solved:

  • Provides a convenient and efficient way to connect and disconnect a secondary vehicle to a main vehicle.
  • Allows for easy transportation of additional items or equipment without the need for separate vehicles.
  • Simplifies the process of attaching and detaching a pod or cargo container to a vehicle.

Benefits:

  • Increased flexibility and versatility in transportation systems.
  • Improved efficiency in delivery and logistics operations.
  • Enhanced emergency response capabilities with the ability to quickly attach additional resources.
