  • Patent number: 7273125
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a control system for a power machine that provides selected resolution of the adjusted speed control and other controls, such as attachment controls, to provide more options to the operator for fine positioning. The present disclosure includes a control system for a power machine. The power machine has a full speed. The control system has an adjustable propulsion controller that an operator can position along a range of movement. Examples of the adjustable propulsion controller include a joystick or an accelerator. The position of the propulsion controller along the range of movement selects the speed of the power machine between a first speed and a second speed, where the first speed is greater than the second speed. The first speed is selectable from a plurality of percentages of the full speed.

  • Patent number: 6694765
    Abstract: A transport temperature control apparatus includes a refrigeration circuit and a heat exchanger having an air inlet and an air outlet in fluid communication with a conditioned space. An evaporator coil extends through the heat exchanger between the inlet and air outlet and is fluidly connected to the refrigeration circuit. A divider defines a first portion of the evaporator coil and a second portion of the evaporator coil. A first fan is housed in the heat exchanger and is adjacent the first portion. The first fan has a first operating condition for directing air across the evaporator coil in a first direction and a first non-operating condition. A second fan is housed in the heat exchanger and is adjacent the second portion. The second fan has a second operating condition for directing air across the evaporator coil in a second direction and a second non-operating condition.
