  • Patent number: 12118053
    Abstract: System and methods for aligning event data recorded by recording devices. Recording devices create, transmit, and store alignment data. Alignment data created by a recording device is stored in the memory of the recording device with a time that is maintained by the recording device and that is relative to the time of event data recorded by the recording device that creates the alignment data. Recording devices further receive and store transmitted alignment data. Alignment data received by a recording device is stored in the memory of the recording device with a time that is maintained by the receiving recording device and that is relative to the time of event data recorded by the recording device that creates alignment data. Stored alignment data may be used to align the playback of event data of devices that have the same alignment data.

  • Patent number: 12084276
    Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, an energy storage device, a body, an electric power take-off system, and a disconnect. The energy storage device is supported by the chassis and is configured to provide electrical power to a prime mover. Activation of the prime mover selectively drives the refuse vehicle. The body is supported by the chassis and defines a receptacle for storing refuse. The electric power take-off system is positioned on the refuse vehicle, and includes a motor that is configured to drive a hydraulic pump to convert electrical power received from the energy storage device into hydraulic power. The disconnect is positioned between the energy storage device and the electric power take-off system and is configured to selectively decouple the electric power take-off system from the energy storage device.

  • Patent number: 12077375
    Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a first energy storage device, a body, an electric power take-off system, and a subsystem coupled to the body and moveable using hydraulic power from the electric power take-off system. The first energy storage device (e.g., a battery) is supported by the chassis and is configured to provide electrical power to a prime mover. Activation of the prime mover selectively drives the refuse vehicle. The body is configured for storing refuse, and is supported by the chassis. The electric power take-off system is positioned on the body and includes an electric motor, a second energy storage device configured to provide electric power to the electric motor, and a hydraulic pump that is drive by the electric motor. The electric motor drives the hydraulic pump to convert the electrical power into hydraulic power.

    Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, an energy storage device, a vehicle body, an electric power take-off system, and a hydraulic component. The energy storage device is supported by the chassis and is configured to provide electrical power to a prime mover. Activation of the prime mover selectively drives the refuse vehicle. The vehicle body is supported by the chassis, and includes an on-board receptacle for storing refuse therein. The electric power take-off system is positioned on the vehicle body, and includes an electric motor configured to drive a hydraulic pump to convert electrical power received from the energy storage device into hydraulic power. An amount of electrical power at least one of received by and provided to the electric motor is limited by a controller to control an output characteristic of the hydraulic pump. The hydraulic component is in fluid communication with the hydraulic pump and configured to operate using hydraulic power from the electric power take-off system.

  • Publication number: 20240265794
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a chassis, a body coupled to the chassis, and a thermal event monitoring system including a sampling element configured to sample an environmental condition associated with the vehicle, at least one processor, and at least one memory. The memory includes instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the processing circuit to receive one or more samples from the sampling element, determine, based on the one or more samples, a presence of a fire onboard the vehicle, and generate a navigational route for the vehicle to direct the vehicle to an alternate destination in response to determining the presence of the fire.
