Abstract: A CO sensor module includes a housing, a CO sensor, and a module battery. The housing has a first portion that is configured to be removably inserted into a compartment of a generator and a second portion that is configured to be positioned outside of the compartment. The CO sensor is positioned within the first portion of the housing and is configured to detect concentrations of CO. The module battery is positioned within the housing and is configured to power the CO sensor module. The second portion of the housing includes a mounting ring that is configured to abut a control panel of the generator in an installed position.

Abstract: A generator includes an internal combustion engine, a proximity sensor structured to detect a distance value indicative of a distance between the generator and an object, and a controller. The controller is configured to receive a first distance value from the proximity sensor corresponding to the distance between the generator and the object. Upon determining that the first distance value is less than a predetermined minimum distance value, the controller is configured to initiate an alarm. The controller is further configured to receive a second distance value from the proximity sensor corresponding to the distance between the generator and the object. Upon determining that the second distance is less than the predetermined minimum distance value, the controller is configured to initiate a shutdown of the generator.

Abstract: A generator including an internal combustion engine having an exhaust outlet, a proximity sensor structured to detect a distance value indicative of a distance between the exhaust outlet and an object, and a controller. The controller includes a proximity circuit structured to receive the distance value from the proximity sensor and a shutdown circuit. The shutdown circuit is structured to receive the distance value from the proximity circuit, determine whether to initiate at least one of an alarm and a shutdown of the generator based on the distance value and a predetermined distance value minimum, and initiate at least one of the alarm and the shutdown of the generator based on determining that the distance value is less than the predetermined distance value minimum.

Abstract: A portable generator includes a CO sensor module to sense CO levels in the environment surrounding the portable generator. The CO sensor module senses high levels of CO and sends a signal to shut down the engine on the portable generator. The CO sensor module alerts the user by emitting an LED light whether the CO sensor module is functioning properly, improperly or if high CO levels are detected. The CO sensor module is removable from a control panel of the portable generator to be replaced or maintained by the user per a replacement or maintenance schedule.

Abstract: A generator includes an elongated tubular frame, an internal combustion engine attached to the elongated tubular frame, the engine including an engine block including a cylinder and a crankshaft configured to rotate about a crankshaft axis. The generator further includes a fuel tank attached to the elongated tubular frame. The elongated tubular frame is configured to simultaneously support the internal combustion engine and the fuel tank.

Abstract: A receptacle for receiving fastening elements for connection of two components of a unit to be assembled, the receptacle has means for providing a separate reception of different fastening elements which differ from one another with regard to a shape, and/or a size, and/or a material, such that different ones of the fastening elements with which the receptacle is charged are coordinated with the components which are respectively to be connected, and a number of the fastening elements to be received by the receptacle corresponds at least to a number of connection sites on the components.

Abstract: In a method of operating a system for announcing the presence of one or more individuals on or near a pathway to an operator of a vehicle traveling on the pathway, each of a number of data readers positioned along the pathway receives data input by the one or more individuals. In response to each data reader receiving the data input, a unique subset of a number of lamps, also positioned along the pathway, is caused to illuminate. The system includes a computer network that controls the operation of the lamps in response to the input of data.

Abstract: A system for identification of different fastening elements used for connecting of components of a unit to be assembled has a receptacle to receive different fastening elements which differ from each other with regard to shape and/or size and/or material and are coordinated to the components which are respectively to be connected so that the number of fastening elements which are able to be received by the receptacle corresponds at least to the number of connection sites on the components, a housing which serves to receive the receptacle, and identification elements to display the individual charging position of a fastening element in the receptacle.
