  • Publication number: 20260135445
    Abstract: A motor controller, motor, and modular motor assembly. The modular motor assembly includes a motor including a rotor rotatably coupled with a stator, and a motor controller removably coupled to the motor at a mating interface. The modular motor assembly defines a through bore passing through the motor and the motor controller which is configured to transfer torque to a removable shaft inserted into the through bore.

  • Patent number: 12607142
    Abstract: Transmission device between an engine and a fan comprises an input device, configured to be driven in rotation by the engine, and an output device, configured to be linked to the fan so as to drive the fan in rotation. Advantageously, the transmission device also comprises a first clutch, which is linked to the output device, a second clutch, which is linked to the input device, a shaft, which connects mechanically the first clutch to the second clutch, and an electric motor, which is arranged on the shaft between the first clutch and the second clutch. The first clutch and the second clutch are switchable, between their respective open and closed states, independently from each other.

  • Publication number: 20220200405
    Abstract: A cooling arrangement for cooling components of a heavy-duty electric or hybrid electric vehicle, the cooling arrangement comprising a fan, a mount, an axial flux electric motor, and a control unit arranged to control the cooling arrangement. The control unit is configured to obtain a predicted cooling requirement of the vehicle for a future time by obtaining information about a speed of the vehicle at a future time and using a heat estimation model to estimate an amount of heat generated at the future time based on the speed of the vehicle, and/or obtaining information about a characteristic of a path of the vehicle at the future time and using the heat estimation model to estimate the amount of heat generated at the future time based on the characteristic of the path of the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20130050477
    Abstract: An innovative integrated system destined to perform real-time sensing of a location with multiple sensors simultaneously and to proceed with telemetry, monitoring and command in its equipment and installed systems, inserting all information (data collected or actions taken) on images of a video system, to share its visualization, broadcast and recording. Includes a device, provided with internal processing elements connected to a video camera, be it digital or analog and of various types, and to sensors, also of various types and applications, through compatible input ports, be them analog and/or digital and of various types accompanied by an equal number of output ports of various types, as required. Also, optionally, there may be connected auxiliary devices such as video recorders, data communication and memory chips, among others. The data collected from sensors and internally processed by the elements is displayed in lines and/or columns on the video output.
