  • Machine with configurable power system
    Patent number: 11988133
    Abstract: A machine such as a material processing apparatus comprises a mechanical transmission system coupled to a mechanical load such as a crusher. An internal combustion engine is coupled to the mechanical transmission system, and at least one motor-generator is coupled to an electrical system and to the mechanical transmission system. In at least one mode of operation, the electrical system delivers electrical power to the motor-generator(s), the motor-generator(s) generating mechanical power from the electrical power and delivering the mechanical power to the mechanical transmission system to drive the mechanical load.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 17, 2022
    Date of Patent: May 21, 2024
    Assignee: Terex GB Limited
    Inventors: Adam Crankshaw, Lee Johnston
