ELECTROMAGNETIC LATCH FOR VEHICLE STORAGE ASSEMBLY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240218711 titled 'ELECTROMAGNETIC LATCH FOR VEHICLE STORAGE ASSEMBLY
The abstract describes a vehicle storage assembly with a static panel and a removal panel that can move between open and closed configurations to cover an opening. The assembly includes a ferromagnetic member and magnets that are magnetically coupled when the removal panel is closed. An electromagnetic coil may also be included in the assembly.
- The vehicle storage assembly includes a static panel and a removal panel.
- The removal panel can move between open and closed configurations.
- A ferromagnetic member and magnets are used to secure the removal panel in the closed configuration.
- An electromagnetic coil may be included in the assembly.
Potential Applications: - Vehicle storage systems in cars, trucks, or other vehicles. - Secure storage solutions for valuable items in vehicles.
Problems Solved: - Provides a secure way to cover and protect openings in vehicle storage systems. - Ensures that the removal panel stays in place when closed.
Benefits: - Enhanced security for stored items in vehicles. - Easy access to stored items when needed.
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Vehicle Storage Assembly for Enhanced Security This technology can be used in automotive industry for vehicle storage systems, providing a secure and convenient solution for storing items in vehicles. The market implications include increased demand for high-quality storage solutions in vehicles.
Questions about Vehicle Storage Assembly: 1. How does the ferromagnetic member contribute to the functionality of the vehicle storage assembly? The ferromagnetic member helps to securely hold the removal panel in place when it is in the closed configuration, providing added security for stored items. 2. What are the potential variations of this technology that could be applied in different types of vehicles or storage systems? The technology could be adapted for use in various types of vehicles, such as cars, trucks, or recreational vehicles, as well as in other storage systems where secure closure is needed.
Original Abstract Submitted
a vehicle storage assembly is provided that includes a static panel and a removal panel. the static panel has an opening with the removal panel being proximate to the opening. the removal panel moves between an open configuration and a closed configuration. the removal panel covers at least a portion of the opening when in the closed configuration. the vehicle storage system further includes a ferromagnetic member and one or more magnets magnetically coupled to the ferromagnetic member when the removal panel is in the closed configuration. the vehicle storage assembly can further include an electromagnetic coil.
