Abstract: The present invention introduces an innovative split-load electric vehicle chassis, specifically designed with bifurcated load-bearing beams, facilitating a swift horizontal insertion and extraction of planar battery containers directly through the vehicle's center of gravity. This design distinguishes itself from traditional solid longitudinal chassis-frames, optimizing battery container positioning. Working in tandem with the chassis, the invention incorporates a double front battery lift system, capable of holding two battery containers concurrently. This lift is equipped with sprocket powered rollers and can execute vertical movements, harmonizing with the vehicle's chamber rollers. The battery exchange process, with this integrated design, demands a mere three movements, completing a full battery swap in under 5 seconds. Mounted to a charging tower, the lift efficiently manages the deposition and acquisition of batteries, readying itself for successive exchanges.

Abstract: The present invention is embodied in a duct assembly system for the shaping and support of skins against a bulkhead, including an articulating skin expanding member conforming, in an extended position, to a cross section of the bulkhead, and a support means attached to the expanding member for insertion of the expanding member into the skins and alignment of the expanding member adjacent to the bulkhead.
