Truck Doors with Conveyor Belt
This integrated cargo transportation system for trucks features a step-like conveyor belt and a transforming frame. It converts into a conveyor belt for rapid loading/unloading, unfolds into stairs for manual handling, and forms a bridge between vehicles for cargo transfer. Serving as the truck’s rear door when closed, it integrates tail lights, ground projection warnings, and bright warning indicators for added safety.
