Multipurpose all-terrain vehicle

A multipurpose all-terrain vehicle includes an elevated platform having a frame on which it may support a lifting system, a propulsion system, a power source, a control mechanism, a secondary height adjustable platform, a tow hitch, a plow, and other suitable accessories. Centered directly underneath the elevated frame is an arcuate space configuration. The elevated platform may be supported by arches that rest on a wheeled or tracked propulsion system. The vehicle is configured to straddle, lift, and transport heavy loads underneath the elevated platform and maneuver in all types of terrain without damaging delicate terrain or subterranean objects. The multipurpose vehicle is especially suited for use by arborists, landscape professionals, and other professionals, in a suburban or urban environment. The vehicle is inexpensive, lightweight, compact, and highly maneuverable.

1. A multipurpose vehicle, comprising: an elevated platform having a frame supporting a lifting system and a propulsion system; an arcuate space configuration centered directly underneath the elevated platform, the elevated platform is supported by arches comprising the arcuate space configuration and rest on wheels comprising part of the propulsion system; wherein the lifting system comprises a center lifting boom and second lifting mechanism, the center lifting boom is configured to lift and position a load underneath the elevated platform in the arcuate space configuration, and the second lifting mechanism is configured to engage a load from a distance, and perform at least one of the following positioning, pulling, pushing and lifting the load; wherein the propulsion system comprises wheels individually powered such that no axles are necessary further enabling the arcuate space configuration and the ability for the vehicle to travel over all terrains and position itself directly over a load.

2. The multipurpose vehicle as recited claim 1, wherein the second lifting mechanism comprises a boom a winch and a cable.

3. The multipurpose vehicle as recited claim 1, wherein the second lifting mechanism comprises an extendable boom.

4. The multipurpose vehicle as recited in claim 1, further comprising a winch attached to at least one of the front and the rear of the vehicle configured to pull the vehicle and operate in conjunction with the second lifting mechanism.

5. The multipurpose vehicle as recited in claim 1, further comprising a secondary height adjustable platform that rests above the elevated platform to elevate a person higher than the elevated platform.

6. The multipurpose vehicle as recited in claim 1, wherein the propulsion system is powered by a power source and the propulsion system includes a hydraulic pump that powers the center lifting boom and is connected to motors attached to each of the wheels for self-propelling each wheel.

7. A multipurpose vehicle, comprising: an elevated platform having a frame supporting a lifting system and a secondary height adjustable platform located a distance above the elevated platform, the secondary height adjustable platform supported by vertical members attached to the elevated platform, the vertical members configured to be height adjustable and to enable scaffolding to be placed on the vertical members providing the secondary height adjustable platform; an arcuate space configuration centered directly underneath the elevated platform, the elevated platform is supported by arches comprising the arcuate space configuration and rest on wheels comprising part of the propulsion system; wherein the lifting system comprises a center lifting boom configured to lift and position a load underneath the elevated platform in the arcuate space configuration.

8. The multipurpose vehicle as recited in claim 7, further comprising arches connected to the elevated platform the arches comprising independent support members joined together by a pivot pin connected to the elevated platform, and each support member attached to a wheel at a distal end of the support members away from the pivot pin.

9. The multipurpose vehicle as recited in claim 7, further comprising a second lifting mechanism connected to the elevated platform on either end of the vehicle, the second lifting mechanism comprising an extendable boom, a winch and a cable, wherein the second lifting mechanism is used to engage a load from a distance, and perform at least one of the following positioning, pulling, pushing and lifting the load.

10. The multipurpose vehicle as recited in claim 7, further comprising a towing mechanism attached to the vehicle.

11. The multipurpose vehicle as recited in claim 7, further comprising a winch connected to either end of the vehicle.

12. The multipurpose vehicle as recited in claim 7, further comprising wheels attached to the elevated platform via support members, each wheel powered by a propulsion system.

13. The multipurpose vehicle as recited in claim 7, further comprising a lifting mechanism attached to the center lifting boom, the lifting mechanism supports a load, and wherein the combination of the lifting mechanism and center lifting boom automatically self-centers the load underneath the elevated platform in the arcuate space configuration.

14. The multipurpose vehicle as recited in claim 7, wherein the center lifting boom is powered by a hydraulic pump and includes a hydraulic piston, which causes the boom to lift up and down, wherein the lifting system further comprises a load attachment mechanism suspended from the underside of the vehicle that engages, lifts and centers the load inside the arcuate space configuration, wherein the load attachment mechanism is free moving and is able to pull a load from different angles, which further permits the load to center itself.

15. A multipurpose all-terrain vehicle able to perform a myriad of tasks on a single platform, comprising: an elevated platform having a frame supporting a lifting system, a propulsion system, a power source, and a control mechanism, wherein centered directly underneath the elevated frame is an arcuate space configuration comprising arches that rest on a wheeled system, whereby the elevated platform in combination with the arcuate space configuration enables the vehicle to straddle, lift, and transport heavy loads underneath the elevated platform; wherein the lifting system includes a mechanical lever includes a center lifting boom powered by hydraulic pump, the lifting boom includes a hydraulic piston, which causes the boom to lift up and down, attached to the lifting boom is a load attachment mechanism suspended from the underside of the vehicle that engages, lifts and centers the load inside the arcuate space configuration, the load attachment mechanism is free moving and is able to pull from different angles, which permit the load to center itself; wherein the lifting system further comprises a first winch mounted on a first end of the vehicle and an extendable lifting boom and a second winch attached to a second end of the vehicle opposite the first end, wherein first winch has a cable that travels to the extendable lifting boom and is used to raise and lower the extendable lifting boom, wherein the extendable lifting boom is used to lift, pull, push, and drag loads from the vehicle, and permits the vehicle to lift loads to different levels when transferring a load from the ground to a position above the ground.

16. The multipurpose all-terrain vehicle as recited in claim 15, wherein the wheeled system is powered by at least one hydraulic motor attached to the wheeled system and enables the turning of the wheels.

17. The multipurpose all-terrain vehicle as recited in claim 15, further comprising a pivot pin to attach each arch to the elevated platform.

18. The multipurpose all-terrain vehicle as recited in claim 15, whereby the first and second winches are used to propel the vehicle.

19. The multipurpose all-terrain vehicle as recited in claim 15, further comprising a secondary height adjustable platform attached to the elevated platform, the secondary height adjustable platform is configured to support a person thereon.

20. The multipurpose all terrain vehicle as recited in claim 15, wherein the wheeled system includes all terrain tractor tires.
