Patent number: 10753622Abstract: A heating installation comprising: a first circuit (C1); a second circuit (C2); a first heat pump (4) for heating the medium in the first circuit; a heat exchanger (10) which is arranged in the second circuit and connected between a condenser (4b) and an expansion valve (4d) of the first heat pump; a second heat pump (11) arranged for heating a medium by absorbing heat energy from the medium in the second circuit; and a first and a second accumulator tank (A1, A2) arranged in series in the second circuit for accumulating the medium in the second circuit. The accumulator tanks are alternately connectable to the second heat pump in order to allow medium to circulate between the first accumulator tank and the evaporator of the second heat pump in a first operating situation and allow medium to circulate between the second accumulator tank and the evaporator of the second heat pump in a second operating situation.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2015Date of Patent: August 25, 2020Assignee: Energy Machines ApSInventor: Hans-Göran Göransson

Patent number: 10612796Abstract: A heating installation comprising: a first circuit (C1); a second circuit (C2); a first heat pump (4) for heating the medium in the first circuit; a heat exchanger (10) which is arranged in the second circuit and connected between a condenser (4b) and an expansion valve (4d) of the first heat pump; second and third heat pumps (11, 13) arranged for heating a medium by absorbing heat energy from the medium in the second circuit; and an accumulator tank (12) arranged in the second circuit downstream of the second heat pump (11). The accumulator tank is connected to an evaporator (13a) of the third heat pump (13) in order to allow medium to circulate between the accumulator tank and this evaporator so that heat exchange between the medium in the second circuit and a working medium of the third heat pump is possible via the evaporator of the third heat pump.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2015Date of Patent: April 7, 2020Assignee: Energy Machines ApSInventor: Hans-Göran Göransson

Patent number: 10274207Abstract: A heating installation comprising: —a first circuit (C1); —a second circuit (C2); —a first heat pump (4) for heating the medium in the first circuit; —a first heat exchanger (10) arranged in the second circuit (C2) and connected between a condenser (4b) and an expansion valve (4d) of the first heat pump; —a second heat pump (11) arranged for heating a medium by absorbing heat energy from the medium in the second circuit; and —a second heat exchanger (12) and a third heat exchanger (14) for transferring heat from the medium in the second circuit to water in a water supply line (13). The second heat exchanger (12) is connected to the water supply line upstream of the third heat exchanger (14) in order to allow the second heat exchanger to preheat the tap hot-water in a first step and the third heat exchanger to preheat the tap hot-water in a subsequent second step.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2014Date of Patent: April 30, 2019Assignee: Energy Machines ApSInventor: Hans-Göran Göransson

Patent number: 7083544Abstract: A control device for electric motors and a method for monitoring the serviceability of a transmission part arranged for transmission of torque between an electric motor and a load during operation. The method comprises the steps of initiating at least one test sequence, and sending a signal indicating an error if said at least one test sequence indicates that the serviceability of the transmission part is not acceptable and if no further test sequences are to be performed. Additionally, said at least one test sequence includes the steps of setting a rotation speed of the electric motor at a test rotation speed, which differs from the rotation speed of the electric motor immediately prior to said setting, and measuring at the electric motor, within a period starting from the setting of the rotation speed of the motor and ending when the rotation speed of the electric motor has reached the test rotation speed.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2002Date of Patent: August 1, 2006Assignee: Emotron ABInventors: Göran Göransson, Leif Olausson

Patent number: 6628100Abstract: A control circuit for a reluctance machine having two mutually movable parts and at least one inductive phase winding adapted for a certain maximum drive current value. The method includes detecting when a phase winding is in a non-drive mode; causing a test current, having a second maximum value lower than said certain maximum value, to flow through the phase winding and through a current sensor when the winding is in the non-drive mode; and establishing a mutual position in dependence of the output of said current sensor.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2002Date of Patent: September 30, 2003Assignee: Emotron ABInventors: Henrik Stendahl, Göran Göransson, Johan Bengtsson
