Abstract
An integrated system of preparing wheel surfaces and maintaining air circulation in a mobile enclosure is provided. The system could include a first compartment having a wheel rotating apparatus configured to rotate a wheel about an axis. The system could also include an air circulation system to filter pollutants from the outside environment before drawing air into the mobile enclosure. The air circulation system could also filter pollutants inside the mobile enclosure before releasing air outside of the mobile enclosure through an opening disposed on the floor of the mobile enclosure.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . For use in a mobile enclosure, a system comprising:
an apparatus having a plurality of rollers to rotate a wheel about an axis; and an exhaust system to filter pollutants inside the mobile enclosure before releasing air to the outside environment.
2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the apparatus is configured to position the wheel at an angle relative to a floor of the mobile enclosure.
3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of rollers includes a first roller, a second roller, and a third roller, wherein proximate ends of the first roller and the second roller are disposed at a height relatively higher than the respective distal ends of the first roller and the second roller.
4 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the third roller is disposed at an angle relative to a vertical surface of the mobile enclosure.
5 . The system of claim 3 , wherein a proximate end of the third roller is disposed at greater distance from a vertical surface of the mobile enclosure relative to a distal end of the third roller.
6 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the first roller, the second roller, and the third roller are configured to rotate in a clockwise and a counter-clockwise motion.
7 . The system of claim 1 further comprising:
a frame to retain the plurality of rollers in a relative position.
8 . The system of claim 1 further comprising:
a slotted surface disposed proximate to the exhaust system allowing pollutants to be drawn from the ambient environment surrounding the apparatus to the exhaust system.
9 . The system of claim 1 further comprising:
an opening disposed on a floor of the mobile enclosure and proximate to the exhaust system allowing air passage to the outside environment.
10 . The mobile enclosure of claim 9 , wherein the opening includes a filter.
11 . The system of claim 1 further comprising:
an intake system to filter pollutants from the outside environment before drawing air into the mobile enclosure.
12 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the mobile enclosure is transportable by at least one of: a truck, a van, a car, a sports utility vehicle (SUV), a bus, a cab, a trailer, and a motor vehicle.
13 . An integrated system of preparing wheel surfaces and maintaining air circulation in a mobile enclosure, the system comprising:
a first compartment having a wheel rotating apparatus configured to rotate the wheel about an axis, the apparatus having a plurality of rollers; and an air circulation system to filter pollutants from the outside environment before drawing air into the mobile enclosure and to filter pollutants inside the mobile enclosure before releasing air outside of the mobile enclosure through an opening disposed on the floor of the mobile enclosure.
14 . The system of claim 13 further comprising:
a frame to retain the plurality of rollers in a relative position.
15 . The system of claim 13 further comprising:
a slotted surface disposed proximate to the exhaust system allowing pollutants to be drawn from the ambient environment surrounding the apparatus to the exhaust system.
16 . The system of claim 13 , wherein the opening includes a filter.
17 . The system of claim 13 , wherein the mobile enclosure is transportable by at least one of: a truck, a van, a car, a sports utility vehicle (SUV), a bus, a cab, a trailer, and a motor vehicle.
18 . For use in a mobile enclosure, a method of manipulating a wheel surface while maintaining air quality inside and outside of the mobile enclosure, the method comprising:
rotating a wheel about an axis using an apparatus to aid in manipulating the wheel surface, the apparatus having a plurality of rollers; filtering pollutants from the outside environment before drawing air into the mobile enclosure; and filtering pollutants inside the mobile enclosure before releasing air outside of the mobile enclosure through an opening disposed on the floor of the mobile enclosure.
19 . The method of claim 18 , wherein the manipulating the wheel surface further comprises performing at least one of: repairing, sanding, buffing, polishing, treating, coating, painting, and finishing.
20 . The method of claim 18 further comprising:
transporting the mobile enclosure by at least one of: a truck, a van, a car, a sports utility vehicle (SUV), a bus, a cab, a trailer, and a motor vehicle.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
