  • Patent number: 11668502
    Abstract: A transportation refrigeration system and a CAN ID allocation method for a transportation refrigeration system. The transportation refrigeration system includes: a refrigeration circuit including a compressor, a condenser, and a plurality of evaporators connected in parallel, all of which are connected to form a loop; a plurality of chambers, each of the evaporators being located in one of the chambers to adjust the chamber; a plurality of sensors of the same type, each of the sensors being installed in one of the chambers respectively; and a control unit, after being installed in place and energized, the plurality of sensors send their own identification codes to the control unit, and the control unit allocates a CAN ID to each of the sensors after receiving the identification codes of the sensors, so that the identification code of each sensor is bound to the corresponding CAN ID respectively.

  • Publication number: 20210229529
    Abstract: A transport refrigeration device, a power management system and a power management method thereof are provided by the present disclosure. The transport refrigeration device includes a power source (110), a compressor (120) and a generator (130) both driven by the power source (110), a refrigerant in a refrigeration circuit which is compressed by the compressor (120), a battery (140) powered by the generator (130), an electrically driven component (150) in the refrigeration circuit which is powered by the generator (130) and/or the battery (140), and a control module (151), and wherein the power management method includes: adjusting an output power of the power source (110) and/or an input power of the compressor (120) and/or charge and discharge statuses of the battery (140), by limiting an upper limit and/or a lower limit of an output power of the generator (130) through the control module (151).
