Robotic omniwheel vehicle
First Claim
1. An omnivehicle for motion in forward, reverse, and sideways directions, and for fully circular pivotal motion, said omnivehicle comprising:
- a chassis;
a vehicle body comprising a motorized door and a canopy;
a plurality of wheels, each of said wheels comprising;
a motor disposed within a wheel shell cavity, a hydraulic braking system, a tread surface, hollow motor axle rods which connect the motor to a hub axle bearing, a rotor wheel coupler which couples the motor to a rotor wheel, and a shell band coupler which engages the inner surface of the wheel shell cavity and a circumference of the rotor wheel;
an electromagnetic coupler device which selectively engages and disengages from another electromagnetic coupling device of another omnivehicle;
a plurality of yokes, each of said plurality of yokes supporting each of said plurality of wheels, said plurality of yokes comprising;
a yoke controller, a yoke gearbox, a yoke motor, a yoke suspension, a motorized universal joint, a hollow shaft, and a transmission rod frame expansion device which selectively raises and lowers the omnivehicle;
a vehicle control and navigation system, said vehicle and navigation control system comprising;
a CPU, having a Capability Statistics Indices system which defines the degree to which a process is or is not meeting a control method operation, a plurality of sensors which communicate data to the CPU, a retractable USB line, a navigational control joystick, a dash panel control device, a touch screen monitor, a remote controller having a remote port charger, a voice control system for integration with a cellular phone device, a brake pedal, a throttle pedal, a GPS system, a laser navigation system, a radar navigation system, a drive logic control system;
a revolving floorboard which rotates on a hidden bearing rail;
an elevating navigational omnichair is disposed on the revolving floorboard for providing an operator with a secured seating area and access to the vehicle control and navigation system;
an air bag;
a power system for providing power for vehicle operation, said power system comprising a power control system, a battery, a fuel tank, power cables, fuel lines, a grid connection, and a renewable energy system;
wherein at least one of said motors is an electric motor, and another of said motors is a fueled motor; and
wherein said fuel lines and power cables are disposed within the hollow shaft of the yoke.

Abstract
A robotic omniwheel vehicle includes autonomous drive logic with laser Radar, GPS for vehicle self guidance, obstacle avoidance and range finding location and also to control the omniwheel assemblies having multi-directional steering, extension and lift actuation via a universal joint and a transmission rod that also supports the chassis while traveling at speeds ranging from low to high velocity on and off road, and on rails. The navigational system control methods use manual driving, a cell phone controller comprising satellite telecommunication with voice command, and a touch screen control panel, an omnichair which can rise up and swivel on point, and may also include electromagnetic coupling devices to connect omnivehicles together.
