Abstract
An apparatus, system, and method for a driven loadable construct, the apparatus, system and method utilizing a construct, at least one rotatable wheel mounted for enabling the construct to roll along a surface, at least one motor and power source coupled to the construct to be used to impart rotational energy to the at least one rotatable wheel, and a controller to control the signals for operation of the at least one rotatable wheel which moves the construct.
Claims24
A device, comprising:
- a loadable construct having an upper surface and a lower surface, the upper surface being configured for carrying a load, wherein the construct further comprises:
- at least one drive wheel disposed on the construct;
- at least one motor operatively coupled to each of the at least one drive wheel;
- at least one power source electrically coupled to the at least one motor;
- and
- a controller operatively coupled to one of the at least one motor and the at least one power source, the controller being configured to control movement of the at least one drive wheel.

A method of retrofitting a construct to be a driven loadable construct, comprising the steps of:
- coupling at least one motor to the construct;
- coupling at least one drive wheel to the at least one motor;
- coupling at least one power source to the at least one motor;
- and
- coupling a controller to one of the at least one motor and the at least one power source, the controller configured to generate a signal to the at least one motor to rotate the at least one drive wheel and move the construct.
