Patent number: 9199647Abstract: A hybrid drive system for use in a drive train assembly of a vehicle includes a control apparatus that operates the hybrid drive system in either a normal energy recovery mode in response to a braking request or an extended braking mode in response to an extended braking request. In the normal energy recovery mode, fluid is pumped to an accumulator, which consumes kinetic energy of the vehicle and causes deceleration of the vehicle. In the extended braking mode, fluid is pumped through a pressure relief valve containing a restriction, which consumes the kinetic energy of the vehicle and causes deceleration of the vehicle. If the temperature of the fluid being pumped through the pressure relief valve exceeds a predetermined value, fluid is alternatively pumped through a pump/motor operating in a motoring mode, which consumes the kinetic energy of the vehicle and causes deceleration the vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2011Date of Patent: December 1, 2015Assignee: Parker-Hannifin CorporationInventor: Yisheng Zhang

Patent number: 9162568Abstract: A method of operating a vehicle includes the steps of: entering a drive shaft test mode; receiving a command to position a yoke to drive the shaft; regulating the shaft speed so as to be below a predefined threshold; and determining whether a drive shaft is available based on whether an actual drive shaft speed is detected above the predefined threshold. When the detected actual drive shaft speed is above the predefined threshold, it is determined that the drive shaft is not available and the vehicle is disabled to prevent damage to the vehicle. When the detected actual drive shaft speed is not above the predefined threshold, it is determined that the drive shaft is available, and the vehicle may be operated as is typical. The methods may be performed by an controller executing program code stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2014Date of Patent: October 20, 2015Assignee: Parker-Hannifin CorporationInventors: Guobiao Song, Yisheng Zhang

Patent number: 7148380Abstract: Human muscle tissues involve striated and smooth muscles. Each muscle tissue possesses its own special function. Differences of physiology functions among the muscle tissues are mainly determined by their various initiation and signal transmission systems, defined as the pre-muscle molecular motor mechanism, or initiating and regulating mechanism. The current medications, drugs, and therapies for diseases and symptoms related abnormal increased muscle tone or excessive muscle contraction are aimed just at the pre-muscle molecular motor mechanisms, whereas without directly intending to effect on the muscle molecular motor mechanism i.e. the contractile apparatus mechanism at all, which, however, is in common for all kinds of muscle tissues. The muscle molecular motor mechanism mainly involves recycling of actin-myosin filament cross-bridge formation and sliding movement. In the process, bio-energy provided by ATP hydrolysis is necessarily required.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2001Date of Patent: December 12, 2006Inventors: Chong Gang Wang, Yisheng Zhang, Pei Wang
