Modular vehicle system

Abstract

A vehicle system having a driving module, at least one mission module and at least one container. The driving module has a receptacle which can receive at least one aforementioned mission module. As a result of the receiving possibility, various mission modules can be received, depending on requirement. Thus, the mission is built up modularly in the same driving module. The container is configured to be box-shaped and closed on all sides by walls, with the exception of the top. Furthermore, the mission module is configured to be open on all sides, with the exception of the top, and the top of the mission module is designed to be closed by a wall. As a result, a modular mission module is produced, which can optionally be received in a container or in the receptacle in the driving module.

Description

[0001]This nonprovisional application is a continuation of International Application No. PCT / EP2019 / 063609, which was filed on May 27, 2019, and which claims priority to German Patent Application No. 20 2018 103 225.9, which was filed in Germany on Jun. 8, 2018, and which are both herein incorporated by referenceBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONField of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a vehicle system having a driving module and a mission module. Such modularly built-up vehicle systems are then used when different vehicles having different equipment are built up on the same vehicle chassis. In this case, a corresponding mission-specific mission module is placed on a driving module in order to complete the vehicle.[0003]By virtue of this modular design, there is no need for the vehicle to be specially built up from the bottom up, but a common driving module and various mission modules can be produced. The vehicle is then completed only by placing the mission module on t...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a vehicle system with interchangeable, mission-specific mission modules that can be easily fitted onto or into containers. The containers are designed to have at least one access possibility, allowing for easy access to the modules. The mission module is fitted with a transporter to ensure a simple mounting path between the receptacle in the driving module and the container. The containers can be known standard containers that can be stacked and / or have facilities expanded by facilities in the container. The introduction of the mission module creates more action space by creating more space in the container and expanding the facilities of the mission module.

Problems solved by technology

The problem that results is that unused mission modules are intended to be stored in a protected manner until use.

However, the introduction of a mission module into a container represents a certain challenge, since conventional containers are closed, and the introduction of the mission modules into the container is thus not possible without conversion measures.
