Embodiment Construction

[0021] In order to be able to meet the different vehicle needs of customers in a flexible and cost-effective manner, a method for realizing modular vehicles has been developed. A modular vehicle according to the present disclosure is typically assembled at the customer's premises, and the customer may thus purchase a set of modules from the manufacturer. The present disclosure is applicable to all kinds of road vehicles. However, the present disclosure may relate to heavy vehicles such as buses, trucks and the like. In particular, the present disclosure may relate to vehicles used on public roads.

[0022] According to an aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a method for controlling assembly of a vehicle from a set of modules performed by a first control device, the set of modules including: at least one driving module; and at least one functional module, wherein the at least one driving The module includes a pair of wheels and is configured to be operated aut...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method performed by a first control device (100) for controlling assembly of a vehicle (1) from a set of modules (20), the set of modules (20) comprising: at least one drivemodule (30); and at least one functional module (40), wherein the at least one drive module (30) comprises a pair of wheels (32) and is configured to be autonomously operated, and wherein each module(30; 40) in the set of modules (20) comprises at least one interface (50) releasably connectable to a corresponding interface (50) on another module, the method comprising: commanding (s101) a secondcontrol device (200) of the at least one drive module (30) to physically connect the at least one drive module (30) with the at least one functional module (40) to assemble a vehicle (1); and receiving (s102), from at least one of the modules (30; 40) of the assembled vehicle (1), a verification of the connection between the modules (30; 40).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for controlling the assembly of a vehicle from a set of modules. The invention also relates to a first control device for controlling the assembly of a vehicle, a second control device for controlling the assembly of a vehicle, a system for controlling the assembly of a vehicle, an assembly by means of the method vehicle, a computer program and a computer readable medium. Background technique [0002] Today's vehicles are often built for a specific purpose, for example, buses are built to transport people and trucks are built to transport goods. Such vehicles are typically built and fully assembled at the factory, or they may be partially assembled at the factory and finished at the coachbuilder. Once a vehicle is assembled, the vehicle can only be used for a specific purpose. So buses will only be used as buses and garbage trucks will only be used as garbage trucks. Different vehicles are therefore required for di...
