Vehicle pulling device, system for passing vehicle in two modes, and inspection system thereof
First Claim
1. A vehicle pulling device comprising:
- a movable chassis disposed in a passage for a vehicle and being movable in a first direction; and
a support beam disposed to the movable chassis and being rotatable between a first position and a second position, wherein;
in the first position, the support beam is located substantially in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, such that wheels of the vehicle are interacted with the support beam of the vehicle pulling device so that the vehicle is pulled to pass through the passage; and
in the second position, the support beam is located substantially parallel to the first direction such that the wheels of the vehicle are not interacted with the support beam of the vehicle pulling device so that the vehicle travels by itself to pass through the passage.

Abstract
A vehicle pulling device, a system for passing a vehicle in two modes, and an inspection system for scanning a vehicle by radiation are disclosed. The vehicle pulling device comprises a movable chassis disposed in a passage for a vehicle and being movable in a first direction; and a support beam disposed to the movable chassis and being rotatable between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the support beam is located substantially in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, such that wheels of the vehicle are interacted with the support beam of the vehicle pulling device so that the vehicle is pulled to pass through the passage; and in the second position, the support beam is located substantially parallel to the first direction such that the wheels of the vehicle are not interacted with the support beam of the vehicle pulling device so that the vehicle travels by itself to pass through the passage. Therefore, when the vehicle does not need to be pulled, the support beam is rotated to the second position, and the vehicle travels by itself to pass through the passage. When the support beam is rotated to the first position, the vehicle pulling device can pull the vehicle to pass through the passage.

11. A system for passing a vehicle in two modes, comprising:
-
a passage through which a vehicle passes; and a vehicle pulling device disposed in the passage, the vehicle pulling device comprising a movable chassis movable in a first direction in which the vehicle travels; and a support beam disposed to the movable chassis and being rotatable between a first position and a second position, wherein; in the first position, the support beam is located substantially in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, such that wheels of the vehicle are interacted with the support beam of the vehicle pulling device so that the vehicle is pulled to pass through the passage; and
in the second position, the support beam is located substantially parallel to the first direction such that the wheels of the vehicle are not interacted with the support beam of the vehicle pulling device so that the vehicle travels by itself to pass through the passage. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14)

15. An inspection system for scanning a vehicle by radiation, comprising:
-
a passage through which a vehicle passes; a radiation source disposed on one side of the passage; a radiation receiving device disposed on the other side of the passage to receive the radiation passing through the vehicle under inspection; and a vehicle pulling device comprising a support beam and configured for enabling the vehicle to pass through the passage in a first direction in a first mode and a second mode, wherein in the first mode, the support beam of the vehicle pulling device is located substantially in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, such that wheels of the vehicle are interacted with the support beam of the vehicle pulling device so that the vehicle is pulled to pass through the passage; and
in the second mode, the support beam is located substantially parallel to the first direction such that the wheels of the vehicle are not interacted with the support beam of the vehicle pulling device so that the vehicle travels by itself to pass through the passage.
