ABSTRACT:
An integral hull and module system (10) includes a universal hull (12) configured to conveniently accept various modules (100) to convert the system (10) to different operational functions. Hull (12) includes an inner hull structure (24) for downwardly, slidably receiving the outer shell (102) of module (100) which is common to each module (100). To facilitate insertion of module outer shell (102) within inner hull structure (24), the side and end walls (126, 128 and 130) of the module outer shell are sloped inwardly to match the slope of side walls and end walls (26, 28, 30) which compose the sides of inner hull structure (24). Vertical keys (138) are formed on the exterior portions of the side walls of module outer shell (102) to slidably engage within corresponding keyways (42) formed in the side and end walls of inner hull (24) to properly align and prevent lateral movement of module (100) relative to hull (12).
