Abstract: A pack is disclosed having a pack support structure, and a stand structure connected to the pack support structure. A disclosed collapsible shelter is stored on the pack and includes a floor material that provides a ground cover under the collapsible shelter, and is stored on the pack for carrying. The collapsible shelter, when in the deployed position, is attached to the pack support structure so that the pack is part of the collapsible shelter and is supported by the pack support structure. A shroud is also disclosed attached to the pack support structure to act as a heat shield. Support equipment and supplies are stored in the pack, and are accessible from inside of the collapsible shelter. Disclosed configurations allows for rapid deployment, and increased protection from heat in an emergency situation such as when a firefighter requires emergency protection from a wildfire.

Abstract: The method for creating energy sources for a vehicle drive system includes burning an air fuel mixture in an internal combustion engine and discharging the burned air fuel mixture through an exhaust system of the vehicle. Steam is created utilizing heat of the exhaust system. The steam is passed through a generator, which supplies mechanical or electrical power to an appropriate drive system of the vehicle. Hydrogen can be created utilizing the steam and a catalyst substrate. Wind turbines mounted to the vehicle can also supply electricity to the vehicle as air passes through the turbines due to movement of the vehicle.
