  • Patent number: 12623637
    Abstract: A vehicle auction facility has a plurality of turntables on which vehicles may be displayed for auction. Each turntable is associated with at least one doorway through which a line of vehicles may drive onto and off the turntable one at a time. Once a vehicle is driven onto the turntable, the turntable may rotate the vehicle as it is being auctioned. Such rotation may position the vehicle for exiting the facility through the same doorway in which it entered while the next vehicle in the same line of vehicles is being driven to the turntable. Thus, vehicles can be quickly showcased and auctioned while avoiding many safety concerns and collision risks. In addition, the plurality of turntables can be arranged in a curved fashion so that bidders in a central area of the facility can clearly see several vehicles being auctioned at the same time.
