Abstract:
A transfer station includes a housing defining an inner space, and having a front passage for passage of a UGV and a top passage for passage of a container. One or more funnels are provided at the top passage for guiding the passage of containers therethrough, and an actuator system is provided for, selectively, engaging a container with a UAV suspension system and disengaging a container from a UAV suspension system. Also provided is a transfer system that is inclusive of the transfer station, a UAV, a UGV, and a reusable container; and methods of transferring reusable containers between UAVs and UGVs.

Claim (Index 29):
The transfer station according to  claim 24 , wherein\n the control unit is configured to:\n control the communications unit to send and/or receive communications signals to:\n coordinate positioning of a container-loaded UGV to enter the inner space of the housing through the side passage and align a holding space of the UGV that is loaded with the container within the inner space of the housing for removal of the container, \n coordinate positioning of a UAV with capacity for receiving a container to align a transport system of the UAV with the upper passage of the housing for removal of a container from the inner space of the housing through the upper passage, \n instruct the UAV to lower the transport system through the upper passage of the housing to engage the container in the holding space of the UGV, and \n instruct the UAV raise the transport system to raise the container from the UGV holding space and out from the inner space of the housing through the upper passage of the housing.
