Abstract
The workshop and servicing van is adapted to be included in an autonomous motorized unit travelling in desert regions or regions little equipped with fixed stations for servicing and repairing automobile vehicles. The van comprises an electric generating set interposed between the driving cab and the front end side of the body of the vehicle. The generating set supplies power to servicing and repairing equipment fixed inside the body. The front side of the body has openings for the passage of energy transfer lines and pipes.
Claims8
A highly autonomous cross-country workshop and servicing van intended to travel in regions devoid of service and repairing stations for automobile vehicles, said van comprising:
- (a) chassis means;
- (b) a driving cab and body mounted upon and interconnected by said chassis, said body comprising a front end wall adjacent said cab but spaced therefrom and having passage openings formed therein;
- (c) an electric generating set removably mounted on said vehicle between said cab and said front wall by means of skis, releasable fixing means connecting said skis to said generating set, said set being thereby capable of being used on the ground in an autonomous manner;
- (d) equipment fixed inside said body;
- and
- (e) power transfer lines and pipes connecting said generating set to said equipment, said power transfer lines and pipes passing through said passage openings in said front end wall.
A highly autonomous cross-country workshop and servicing van intended to travel in regions devoid of service and repairing stations for automobile vehicles, said van comprising:
- (a) chassis means;
- (b) a driving cab and body interconnected by said chassis means, said body comprising a front end wall having passage openings therein, adjacent to and spaced from said cab, and lateral walls having openings therein;
- (c) an electric generating set interposed between said cab and said front end wall;
- (d) equipment fixed inside said body comprising at least one reel of hose with a gun, disposed in front of an opening in said lateral walls, a brake bleeder, a press for scrapping tire inner tubes, a vulcanizier, a battery charger and two benches symmetrically disposed alongside the lateral walls of said body, said benches having disposed thereon a vise and driller support, a grease tank and a oil cistern being disposed under said benches, and pumps coupling said grease tank and oil cistern to said hose;
- and
- (e) power transfer lines and pipes connecting said generating set to said equipment and supplying power to said vise and driller support.
A highly autonomous cross-country workshop and servicing van intended to travel in regions devoid of service and repairing stations for automobile vehicles, said van comprising:
- (a) chassis means;
- (b) a driving cab and body interconnected by said chassis means, said body comprising a front end wall having passage openings therein, adjacent to and spaced from said cab, and lateral walls having openings therein;
- (c) an electric generating set interposed between said cab and said front end wall;
- (d) equipment fixed inside body comprising two reels of hose provided with guns disposed opposite openings in said lateral walls, a brake bleeder, a press for scrapping tire inner tubes;
- a vulcanizer, a battery charger, at least one bench, a grease tank and oil cistern being disposed under said at least one bench, said two reels of hoses disposed between said grease tank and oil cistern, and pump means coupling said grease tank and oil cistern to said reels of hoses to permit servicing the differential axles and gear boxes of vehicles to be serviced or repaired;
- and
- (e) power transfer lines and pipes connecting said generating set to said equipment and supplying power to said equipment.
