Abstract: The present disclosure provides a conductive member for a circuit breaker high voltage portion conductor assembly, the conductive member including a body with a transfer portion and a coupling portion. The body transfer portion has an electro-thermally efficient contour. That is, the body transfer portion has an electrically efficient contour and a thermally efficient contour. The body transfer portion includes a number of slots defining fins. In this configuration, the body transfer portion distributes current generally evenly across a cross-sectional area of the conductive member body. Further, the fins provide heat dissipation via convection.

Abstract: A mining machine such as a mining shovel includes a digging assembly having an upward extending boom and a dipper assembly with a dipper that is generally horizontally supported by the boom. A hoist system including hoist ropes attached to the dipper may be used to vertically pivot the dipper assembly with respect to the boom. To determine if the hoist ropes are properly supporting the weight of the dipper assembly, an electronic controller can calculate a calculated hoist force based on a hoist speed associated with the hoist ropes and a hoist motor torque from a hoist motor. If the calculated hoist force indicates that slack exists in the hoist ropes, the electronic controller can execute a slack reduction function to increase tension in the hoist ropes attached to the dipper.

Abstract: A mining machine such as a mining shovel includes a digging assembly having an upward extending boom and a dipper arm generally horizontally supported by the boom. The dipper assembly includes a dipper disposed at one end of a dipper arm that can slide in translation with respect to the boom to crowd toward or retract from a vertical bank at the mining site. To translate the dipper assembly, the mining machine includes a crowd system having a crowd motor and a crowd actuator. An electronic controller receives the crowd motor torque, a crowd speed of the dipper assembly, and an inertia parameter associated with the dipper assembly. The electronic controller can determine an approximate location of the dipper with respect to the bank and, in a further aspect, can execute an anti-swing function if the dipper is in the bank.

Abstract: A mining machine such as a mining shovel includes a digging assembly having an upward extending boom and a dipper assembly generally horizontally supported by the boom and configured to crowd toward and retract from a vertical bank at a mine site. To determine if the dipper assembly strikes the bank, an electronic controller can calculate a calculated crowd force based in part on a crowd motor torque associated with a crowd motor, a crowd speed of the dipper assembly, and an inertia parameter. If the calculated crowd force exceeds a predetermined first crowd threshold, the electronic controller can register an impact event. In further aspects, the electronic controller can execute a force modification function to modify the crowding forces and a speed reduction function to reduce the crowd speed.

Abstract: Liquid blending systems and methods of blending liquids are provided. In particular, systems and methods for compensating binary inlet buffers during inline buffer dilution are provided. The systems and methods can provide blends of diluent, a first buffer concentrate containing a majority of a tempering component, and a second buffer concentrate containing a minority of a tempering component. The flow of the first buffer concentrate can be adjusted based upon the total amount of the tempering component being added to the blend through the first and second buffer concentrates.

Abstract: A system for controlling movement of a work implement of a machine between a dump location and a plurality of dig locations includes a rotatable implement system, and an implement system pose sensor. A controller is configured to store first dig signals from the implement system pose sensor indicative of a first dig location, store second dig signals from the implement system pose sensor indicative of a second dig location spaced from the first dig location and store a dump location. The controller is further configured to generate command signals to move the work implement from the first dig location to the dump location, generate command signals to dump a load of material carried by the work implement at the dump location, and generate command signals to move the work implement from the dump location to the second dig location.

Abstract: A system for evaluating a position of a target zone relative to a path of a material engaging work implement includes a rotatable implement system, an implement system pose sensor, and a target pose sensor. A controller determines a current pose of a portion of the implement system, determines a first pose of the target zone, determines a plurality of potential paths for moving the work implement to the first pose, and generates an alert command if a kinematic model and desired operating characteristics do not permit movement of the work implement to the first pose.

Abstract: A system for setting a dump height of a material engaging work implement above a dump body includes a rotatable implement system, an implement system pose sensor, and a bed height sensor. A controller determines an initial bed height, determines an initial dump height, generates a command based upon the pose of the work implement, and determines a subsequent dump height higher than the initial dump height. The controller is further configured to position the work implement at the subsequent dump height, determine a further subsequent dump height higher than the subsequent dump height, and position the work implement at the further subsequent dump height over the dump body.
