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.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A vehicle system comprising:
 a driving module;   at least one mission module; and   at least one container,   wherein the driving module has a receptacle adapted to receive at least one mission module,   wherein the container is cuboidal in design and is closed on all sides, with the exception of the top, by walls,   wherein the mission module is configured to be open on all sides with the exception of the top, and   wherein the mission module is adapted to be optionally received in the container or in the receptacle in the driving module.   
     
     
         2 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the top of the mission module is configured to be closed by a wall. 
     
     
         3 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein superstructures are assigned to the mission module, and wherein the top of the mission module is configured to be closed by a wall and the superstructures. 
     
     
         4 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the mission module is mounted in a carrier frame or a carrier rack. 
     
     
         5 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the container has at least one access possibility. 
     
     
         6 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein, with the mission module received in a container, the top of the mission module forms the top of the container. 
     
     
         7 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the mission module is provided with a transporter. 
     
     
         8 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the container is provided with a transporter. 
     
     
         9 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the container has connections for energy supply and for data transmission. 
     
     
         10 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the mission module has connections for energy supply and for data transmission. 
     
     
         11 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the container comprises mission-specific devices. 
     
     
         12 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein a plurality of mission modules functionally interact to form a mission assembly. 
     
     
         13 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein a plurality of containers can functionally interact to form a container assembly. 
     
     
         14 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein a plurality of containers are designed to be stackable. 
     
     
         15 . The vehicle system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the height of the container is adapted to be increased via a spacer frame.
