  • Patent number: 11970196
    Abstract: A device for managing the electrical energy consumption of a set of passenger transport vehicles comprises: —means for receiving a set of consumption information representative of the electrical energy consumed at a given time by the vehicles, —means for determining an overall consumption, from the consumption information received, and —means for generating a set of commands intended respectively for a subset of vehicles selected from among the vehicles of the set according to the service status thereof, the commands being generated to modify the operation of at least one air conditioning system of the vehicles so as to reduce the value of the determined overall consumption to a predefined value. The invention is applicable in passenger transport vehicles powered by an electrical network, such as rail transport vehicles, for example trains, subways, trams, trolleybuses, etc.

  • Patent number: 11801728
    Abstract: A system includes an actuator that produces heat or cold onboard an electric vehicle and a controller that generates an operating command to control the actuator to deliver a first average power over a predetermined time period based on one or more climatic conditions and based on a vehicle energy parameter. The vehicle energy parameter indicates whether (a) the electric vehicle or another electric vehicle is consuming electric energy or (b) the electric vehicle or another electric vehicle is producing the electric energy. The controller generates the operating command such that the first average power delivered by the actuator during the predetermined time period has substantially the same value as a second average power delivered by the actuator when the controller generates the operating command based only on the one or more climatic conditions.

  • Patent number: 11028631
    Abstract: The device comprises a main body, a fixing member affording fixing of a door leaf to the main body, a ball socket able to drive the main body under the effect of a motor, a roller able to move between (a) an active locking position in which the roller locks the ball socket with respect to the main body, in a closed position of the door leaf and (b) an inactive unlocking position in which a the roller allows displacement of the ball socket with respect to the main body. The device also includes a sleeve that allows a small movement of the fixing member with respect to the ball socket in a displacement direction from the closed position of the door leaf. The device further comprises a tooth that inhibits sleeve to immobilize the fixing member with respect to the ball socket, at least in translation in the displacement direction, when the roller is in the inactive position.

  • Patent number: 10787178
    Abstract: A screen door module for a platform edge of a vehicle station. The module includes a leaf that moves between open and closed positions, a fixed element to which the leaf is mechanically connected and along which it slides and a sill extending under the leaf and under the fixed element. The module also includes a raiser with a predetermined height extending under the leaf and the fixed element and being arranged in such a way as to be laid on a finished ground level of the platform and so the predetermined height corresponds to a difference between the finished ground level and the floor of the vehicle when the latter comes to a standstill alongside the module. An access ramp on the platform side runs along the entire length of the module and allows access to passengers of limited mobility.
