Advanced Mail Truck
The following "Advanced Mail Truck" is a design system to then cause the reduction of the price of postage and shipping parcels. Currently the mail delivery system is per cost of operation / fuel / labor/ insurance/ failing economically... constantly running financial deficits. The correction is being presented... An "Active" generation fuel less electric vehicle with AWD (all wheel drive) to the be able to function in inclement road conditions. The design has many safety features that current mail trucks are missing... such as a slide out stop sign ( final sign position then as per drafting... in a rotated 90 degree fashion / in the drafting positioned so that one could clearly understand.
The "Advanced Mail Truck" is then implementing a blow tube to then, by the force of air pressure, allow the postal worker to remain within the heated or air conditioned mail truck and get the letter in the box. The interior "sort servo robot" is then able to lift ( vacuum ) and read the mail to ensure correct location delivery then placing the mail in the blow tube. The blow tube has an appendage to open and close the mail box door..
The design provides for maximum road visibility with a curved windshield constructed with safety glass..
the design also provides for superior frontal impact resistance with a shock dampener steering column that has impact padding and will flex in the advent of a crash. The driver will also be protected by the honey comb carbon graphite within the rail of the chassis to provide for force deflection "force shatter" thus keeping the passenger compartment safer.
The vehicle also then implements a "load stacker conveyor" system to store additional mail bins along the length of the vehicle. This also allows for greater capacity of mail per truck and allows for greater speed in the function thus reducing the total number of trucks saving money on fuel also to then allow the vehicle to operate with a low profile tow trailer to then replace the large semi truck upon the road way.
The design has the capacity to then also ship refrigerated goods for food transportation.
The design comes standard with a forward mounted electric snow blower and electric wench with wench cable and hook.
Placing the passenger's position in this fashion also then increase the side impact resistance as the wheels also act as force barriers then deflecting the shock should a side impact occur. Vehicle "roll over" protection is then also increased due to the conveyor belt support system then being of rigid steel. One of the advantages of using a "active" generation system for an electric automobile is that safety does not have to be compromised for fuel economy allowing for more crash resistance then not having to factor the weight of the vehicle vs. mileage to compete with a "final retail" sale price.....
The design also implements a "slide out drawer for both the "Active" generator" system ( open aft of ease of maintenance ) and a "side "slide out drawer for the electric motor system then connected to the transmission propelling the automobile. Both "slide out drawer systems" will then have placed in the tool bay a set of roller wheels that bolt on for control of the weight of the system when using the slide out drawers.
The "slide out drawers" are also then balanced ( ie. a counter balance weight will then keep the weight from the drawer's extension causing damaged when extending or opening the drawer). Upon the rear "slide out drawer" the bumper mount cap and license plate and lamp assembly has to be removed before opening the drawer.. ( a modus operandi safety feature).
The vehicle comes with an exterior force wind screen the blowing high velocity air across the exterior of the windshield to assist the windshield wiper system in providing greater visibility.
The Vehicle may also be used as a farm implement as a seeding tractor then using the dual function snow blower as a dirt plow and the blower tube as a seed distribution system with the seed stock then in the mail containers the harvesting equipment then attached to the detachable tow package. ..
It's interesting currently public vehicles sit stationary then being "single function systems" , when.., if... multi function systems are used the adaptation would allow for 24/7 use of the vehicle then assisting in reducing hunger..... many public soup kitchens and emergency / disaster relief food systems ( food pantries for the poor "organic food" school lunch programs ) are financially having difficulty providing what is necessary due to the cost of production of produce also the transportation cost a factor when so many are in need....

in the drafting directly above.. Number 134 tandem rotating with the generator / magneto assembly is then causing a hydraulic draft effect.
the letters then connect to the circuit "bay , number 15 as follows
"A" to "A"
"B" to "B"
"C" to "C"
"D" to "D"
"E" to "E"
"F" to "F"
"G" to "G"
* Note - The generator speed is then governed yet also able to be "load reactive". The oil flow restriction valves then upon the flow tubes are able to be automatically adjusted referencing the speed of the system via r.p.m. sensor ( revolutions per minute sensor), and electronic circuits. This keeps the system at a stable "base idle".
The valve prior to number 134 is then system restriction valve then allowing for flow
restriction ( "restriction valve" ). The valve the after number 135 is the "divergence valve" with additional flow tube the venting oil pressure to the combined component oil / air pressure storage tank also containing a one way valve to only allow oil to enter the combined component pressure storage tank.
The divergence valve then is with oil pressure sensor and additional mechanical over pressure safety valve with oil pressure fault sensor and discharge pipe then venting post mechanical compression coil spring within the safety valve to the combined component pressure storage tank.the valve are with threaded pipe fittings to then pressure seal all flow pipes and required sensors.
The flow tubes / pipes are then with external shock casing and are electrically grounded into an arc plasma box to the control discharge static electricity in a controlled fashion the slide drawer generator is electrically insulated from the chassis of the vehicle by its non electrically conductive mounting system and weather safe " water safe while allowing for venting. Explosion proof electric motors must be used. The main drive system "ie. the main electric motor and it derives it's electrical input current post ( after ) the potentiometer "throttle".
The slide drawer generator system is made to be load reactive... ie with the base idle of the generator the being established by the reintroduction of generated electrical production / electricity production from the generator to the generator assembly electric motor.
The r.p.m. rotational rate incline will cause the advancement of the zero point of the electric motor ie. The magnetic pressure will continue to be applied at increased rates of rotation....
The remainder of the generated current is then available for the main electric motor connected to the automotive transmission... when the "throttle" potentiometer is then depressed the load effect is compensated for by the subsequent electricity is level increase to the slide drawers electric motor causing more available electrical current for the main electric motor.
The Throttle is a two circuit potentiometer....the first circuit from generator to the main electric motor the second circuit from the generator to the generator's electric motor both then increasing when the throttle is depressed.
