Abstract

A complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier, which is manned or unmanned and remotely controllable. The complex carrier can operate in a combined mode and a separated mode. The complex carrier includes a parent carrier having a first connection section and a subsidiary carrier having a second connection section releasably mated and connected with the first connection section. At least one of the parent carrier and the subsidiary carrier has self-moving ability. The complex carrier includes a power control unit capable of controlling the moving speed and direction of the complex carrier. A remote control unit is disposed between the parent carrier and the subsidiary carrier for transmitting remote control signals to control the power control unit. The parent carrier and the subsidiary carrier can be integrally combined to move together. Alternatively, the parent carrier and the subsidiary carrier can be separated to respectively move.

Claims

1. A complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier comprising:

a parent carrier having self-moving ability, the parent carrier including a first connection section disposed on the parent carrier; and

at least one subsidiary carrier including a second connection section disposed on the subsidiary carrier and releasably mated and connected with the first connection section, whereby the first and second connection sections can be mated and connected with each other to combine the parent carrier and the subsidiary carrier into the complex carrier.

2. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 1, wherein the complex carrier includes a power control unit capable of controlling the moving speed and direction of at least one of the parent carrier and the subsidiary carrier, the complex carrier further including a remote control unit for transmitting/receiving remote control signals to remotely control the power control unit.

3. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 2, wherein the power control unit has a main power control unit disposed on the parent carrier for controlling the moving speed and direction of the parent carrier, the remote control unit being disposed on the subsidiary carrier for transmitting/receiving remote control signals to remotely control the main power control unit.

4. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 2, wherein the power control unit has a subsidiary power control unit disposed on the subsidiary carrier for controlling the moving speed and direction of the subsidiary carrier, the remote control unit being disposed on the parent carrier for transmitting/receiving remote control signals to remotely control the subsidiary power control unit.

5. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 2, wherein the power control unit and the remote control unit are respectively electrically connected to signal transmitting/receiving units.

6. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 3, wherein the power control unit and the remote control unit are respectively electrically connected to signal transmitting/receiving units.

7. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 4, wherein the power control unit and the remote control unit are respectively electrically connected to signal transmitting/receiving units.

8. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 5, wherein the signal transmitting/receiving units serve to transmit/receive the remote control signals by means of at least one of wired, wireless and GPS navigation systems.

9. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 1, wherein the parent carrier is connected to the subsidiary carrier via a dragging member for dragging the subsidiary carrier.

10. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 2, wherein the parent carrier is connected to the subsidiary carrier via a dragging member for dragging the subsidiary carrier.

11. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 3, wherein the parent carrier is connected to the subsidiary carrier via a dragging member for dragging the subsidiary carrier.

12. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 4, wherein the parent carrier is connected to the subsidiary carrier via a dragging member for dragging the subsidiary carrier.

13. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 5, wherein the parent carrier is connected to the subsidiary carrier via a dragging member for dragging the subsidiary carrier.

14. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 8, wherein the parent carrier is connected to the subsidiary carrier via a dragging member for dragging the subsidiary carrier.

15. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 1, wherein the complex carrier is selected from a group consisting of water mobile, land mobile and aircraft.

16. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 2, wherein the complex carrier is selected from a group consisting of water mobile, land mobile and aircraft.

17. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 3, wherein the complex carrier is selected from a group consisting of water mobile, land mobile and aircraft.

18. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 4, wherein the complex carrier is selected from a group consisting of water mobile, land mobile and aircraft.

19. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 5, wherein the complex carrier is selected from a group consisting of water mobile, land mobile and aircraft.

20. The complex parent-subsidiary mobile carrier as claimed in claim 9, wherein the complex carrier is selected from a group consisting of water mobile, land mobile and aircraft.
