  • Control system for a machine
    Patent number: 9790660
    Abstract: A control system for a machine having a linkage, a work implement mounted on the linkage, and at least one actuator is provided. The actuator is connected to the linkage and controlled using the control system to move the linkage and the work implement. The control system includes sensors that are configured to sense a current load and position of the work implement. Upon sensing the current load and position of the work implement, a controller provided in the control system can reject or accept a given kick-out command issued from one or more user controls of the control system based on various criteria associated with the sensed load and position of the work implement.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 22, 2016
    Date of Patent: October 17, 2017
    Assignee: Caterpillar Inc.
    Inventors: Matthew Stephen Marquette, Jeffrey Kent Berry, Brad Robert Van De Veer, Thuong Dao Anh Le

  • Electric drivetrain thermal protection system
    Patent number: 7443122
    Abstract: An electric drivetrain for a mobile machine is disclosed. The electric drivetrain has at least one power consuming device, a sensor associated with the at least one power consuming device, and a controller in communication with the power consuming device and the sensor. The sensor is configured to generate a signal indicative of a temperature of the power consuming device. The controller is configured to limit a power consumption level of the at least one power consuming device to an amount corresponding to a value of the signal.
