  • Publication number: 20180281821
    Abstract: A power system for a locomotive includes a battery configured to provide electrical power to at least one component of the locomotive, an engine monitor for detecting whether an engine of the locomotive has been shut down, and an automatic power saver operatively associated with the battery. The automatic power saver includes a controller operatively associated with the engine monitor and configured to receive an input signal from the engine monitor, when the engine is shut down, and generate an output signal if the input signal is received. The automatic power saver includes a battery disconnect relay operably connecting the battery to the at least one component of the locomotive and automatically disconnecting the battery from the at least one component of the locomotive in response to expiration of a predetermined time period following receipt of the output signal from the controller.

  • Patent number: 7775169
    Abstract: An access assembly leading to first and second storage tanks of a planting implement is provided. The access assembly includes a central ramp located between and fixed in relation to the first and second storage tanks, and an extended ramp having a forward end opposite a rearward end aligned in a fore-and-aft direction relative to the direction of travel of the implement. The forward end of the ramp is pivotally connected about a first horizontal axis at a rearward end of the central ramp. The access assembly further includes a ladder pivotally independently coupled about a second horizontal axis at the rearward end of the extended ramp. The ladder and the extended ramp pivot together about the first horizontal axis at the forward end of the extended ramp between a lowered, operative position and a raised, inoperative position above the central ramp.

  • Patent number: 7469915
    Abstract: An access assembly to approach a first storage tank and an adjacent second storage tank of a planting implement is provided. The first and second storage tanks are mounted on a wheeled frame assembly for movement in a direction of travel. The access assembly includes a ramp having a first end opposite a second end aligned in a fore-and-aft direction relative to the direction of travel of the implement. The first end of the ramp is pivotally attached about a first horizontal axis relative to the wheeled frame assembly. The access assembly further includes a ladder pivotally coupled about a second horizontal axis at the second end of the ramp. The ladder and the ramp pivot together about the first horizontal axis at the first end of the ramp between a raised and a lowered position.
