Mobile Machine With One Or More Electric Propulsion Motors

US Patent:
7893636, Feb 22, 2011
Filed:
Oct 31, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/979209
Inventors:
Kevin A. Lantz - Washington IL, US
Jeffrey Holt Wright - Edelstein IL, US
Roy Christopher Fonseca - East Peoria IL, US
Assignee:
Progress Rail Services Corp - Albertville AL
International Classification:
H02P 5/46
US Classification:
318105, 318 34, 318 49, 318 50, 318 51, 318150
Abstract:
A mobile machine may include one or more generator units, a plurality of electric propulsion motors, and a power-transfer system operable to transfer electricity from one or more of the generator units to one or more of the electric propulsion motors. The mobile machine may also include power-system controls that control the connection of the one or more electric propulsion motors to the power-transfer system. The power-system controls may selectively use a first motor-connection strategy for controlling when one or more groups of the electric propulsion motors are connected to the power-transfer system in series, and the power-system controls may selectively use a second motor-connection strategy for controlling when one or more groups of the electric propulsion motors are connected to the power-transfer system in series.

Power System With Multiple Generator Units

US Patent:
7952306, May 31, 2011
Filed:
Jun 1, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/806613
Inventors:
Jeffrey Holt Wright - Edelstein IL, US
Roy Christopher Fonseca - East Peoria IL, US
Assignee:
Progress Rail Services Corp - Albertville AL
International Classification:
H02P 7/32
US Classification:
318146, 318108, 318 52
Abstract:
A method of operating a power system is provided. The method may include running one or more of a plurality of generator units that each include a power source, a first electric generator, and a second electric generator. Additionally, the method may include supplying electricity from one or more of the first electric generators of the one or more running generator units to a first set of one or more electric power loads. The method may also include supplying electricity from one or more of the second electric generators of the one or more running generator units to a second set of one or more electric power loads.

Power System With Multiple Generator Units

US Patent:
7876061, Jan 25, 2011
Filed:
Jun 1, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/806612
Inventors:
Jeffrey Holt Wright - Edelstein IL, US
Roy Christopher Fonseca - East Peoria IL, US
Andrew William Black - Peoria IL, US
Assignee:
Progress Rail Services Corp. - Alberville AL
International Classification:
H02P 9/02
US Classification:
318146, 318149, 290 40 B, 307 24, 307 84
Abstract:
A method of operating a power system is provided, the power system having power-system controls. The method may include automatically setting a priority ranking for a plurality of generator units of the power system with the power-system controls based at least in part on an operating parameter of each generator unit indicative of a quantity of work done by the generator unit. The method may also include automatically controlling which of the generator units run with the power-system controls based at least in part on the priority ranking of the generator units.
