Translation of "Interchangeable body" in German

This TGS chassis offers universal application options with an aluminium shift system as interchangeable body.

A suction hose 25 on the rear of the interchangeable body may be used as an alternative to the suction hose 21.

Such an assembly is especially advantageous because all components connected with the sweeping operation are thus fastened to the interchangeable body.

Such a car body also overcomes in a most simple manner the serious problems which arise nowadays as, for example, pollution of the environment and undesirable noises. According to the invention, this object is achieved in that invention provides an integrated metal and plastics material component which includes a shell-like body formed from a highly impact-resistant plastics material and provided with an integrated metal chassis, such body being suitable for the mounting thereon of interchangeable upper body attachment assemblies which are designed in accordance with the intended use of the vehicle.

The interchangeable body 6 rests on a body frame 8 which is supported on the ground 9 by four legs.

Decorations 2 and 3 can be made interchangeable on basic body 1 in order thereby to produce cover plates that act or appear in different ways.

The basic principle of the invention is that a shaft 16 for the applicator cylinder 1, 2 or 3, its bearing B and controlling means or drive C (FIG. 3) is a part of an operating machine which rotates the shaft 16 about rotation axis 16' (FIG. 2) and that an interchangeable cylinder body 17 (FIG. 1) or bodies 22(FIG. 2) forming the circumference of the applicator cylinder can be rigidly nonrotatably attached to the shaft 16.

If the blower and suction hoses are in the way when the vehicle is being driven away from beneath the interchangeable body, they can be disconnected from the sweeping assembly by releasing a pipe clip connection to the blower/suction mouthpiece and can be suitably pivoted out of the way when the carrier vehicle is driven out from beneath the interchangeable frame.

The dirt picked up is collected in a dirt container and emptied at the rear of the interchangeable body after opening a trap 23 using a compressed air cylinder 24.

Particular advantages are gained when the invention is applied to an interchangeable body which is designed as a framework having at least three, preferably four, legs that can be extended vertically.

Moreover, an interchangeable body 6 is secured above the rear wheels 4 on a frame part 5 of the vehicle 1 and accommodates in its interior essentially a dirt container and a fan.

The vehicle 1 driven out from beneath the interchangeable body is empty of all assemblies and components connected with the mechanical sweeper and can be converted for other applications.

Iveco will be presenting selected models from its complete product range, extending from 3.2 to 40 metric tons at NUFAM, for example. These will include the Daily 70 C 17 EEV with the box body that has the highest payload capacity in the entire van sector, the Stralis AS 440 S 46 T/P ECO with load-dependent engine management system for greater efficiency and lower CO2 emissions, the Stralis AS 260 S 50 Y/PS with interchangeable body for high hauling capacity and rapid container replacement, the Stralis AD 190 S 42 / P skip handler as an all-rounder with excellent road and landfill site performance, and the Trakker AD 340 T 45 with Meiller roll-off tipper that offers high torque to deal with tough assignments.

With a gritter as an interchangeable body and a snow plough fitted on the vehicle front, the MAN TGM is also used in the cold season.

The invention relates to a method for loading and unloading long-distance transportation means and for temporarily storing a standardized cargo, e.g. container, interchangeable body structures for trucks, in an intermediate storage facility.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The invention is thus based on the object to provide a method for loading and unloading long-distance transportation means and for temporary storage, which method allows shorter times for loading and unloading of the long-distance transportation means and loading of and withdrawal from an intermediate storage facility, which method further does not require added means other than for lifting in order to load and unload containers, interchangeable body structures or to provide temporary storage but rather requires only substantially horizontally and vertically movable hoisting equipment.

This object is solved in connection with the preamble of claim 1 in that the valve body, the sealing membrane and the connecting piece are rigidly connected together to form an interchangeable, sealed valve body that can be connected to the drive; that the connecting piece is molded on the sealing membrane; and that the valve body and the sealing membrane are welded ultrasonically to one another.

The Stuttgart carmaker is planning an electrically moving platform with interchangeable vehicle bodies.

The sample embodiments described in the foregoing paragraphs have in common the advantage that the linear dimensions of the interchange bodies decisive for the thickness of the hydrodynamic boundary layer, the mantle thickness with the rings, or the thread thickness with a net or balled-up configuration, is considerably smaller than the entire diameter of the exchange body, which determines the mesh width and accordingly determines the flow resistance of the filter net and retention net to be used.

In this system, commercial chassis and known refuse collection bodies are used with the necessary lifting and tipping devices, the mobility for the individual disposal phases, namely collection, transportation and emptying, being afforded by means of interchangeable bodies.

Such mountings can be arranged in the region of the frame upsweeps of the freight car and, under the control of an onboard, preferably central system from the locomotive, can be moved under the transporting units set up parallel to the tracks, for example semitrailers or interchangeable bodies with an interchangeable undercarriage.

This allows the terminals to be arranged with widespread coverage at short intervals of 200 km and, in view of the high transshipment rate, cost-effective rail transport even over relatively short distances, but also transshipment of individual transporting units (interchangeable bodies or semitrailers with a fixed body or containers) from one freight train to another.

As only about 50% of the total air volume is blown downwards to the bottom with high pressure by the flat radial fan through the compulsory air guiding, a spacing of the slot of only 20 to 70 mm from the front wall, instead of the previously required 80 to 120 mm, for the first time is possible with a sufficient effect, and refrigeration in a compulsory air guiding even in very tight room conditions in interchangeable bodies.

At these docking points, interchangeable containers or interchangeable bodies 36 for lorries can be docked in a weatherproof manner, allowing the components delivered in the interchangeable bodies to be removed as required as if from an internal store.
