First Claim
1. A method for mounting or removing a container of energy that powers an engine or motor that propels a motor vehicle, fixed to the motor vehicle using a lock, the lock including a first end, a second end opposite to the first end, and a shaft connecting the first end and the second end, and a piston that is movable along the shaft and biased against the first end of the lock by an elastic element, the method comprising:
- (a) acting on the piston to cause the piston to compress the elastic element positioned within the container of energy, the acting on the piston moves the piston away from a first end of the lock to disengage the lock from the piston; and
(b) after the acting on the piston, turning the lock to lock or unlock the lock that fixes the container of energy to the motor vehicle,wherein the piston is positioned between the first end of the lock and the elastic element, andwherein the piston is coaxial with and surrounds the shaft.
