Electric unit including a motor, control unit, cooling fan, and a casing, and an operating machine equipped with the electric unit
An electric unit is provided with: a motor having a stator and a rotor; a control unit that controls the motor; and a cooling fan that generates cooling wind for cooling the motor and the control unit. The control unit is provided in the upstream of the stator in a cooling flow channel for circulating the cooling wind. The cooling fan is provided to be positioned in the downstream of the motor in the cooling flow channel, the cooling fan generating the cooling wind by drawing air.
Channel compression matrix parameters
One apparatus for providing high-resolution CSI feedback includes a processor and a radio transceiver. The processor computes sets of amplitude and phase parameters for one or more channel compression matrices. Here, each channel compression matrix corresponds to one transmission layer of a multiple-layer transmission, where each channel compression matrix is comprised of one or more column vectors. The radio transceiver sends indications of the sets of amplitude and phase parameters to one or more network entities is a mobile communication network.
POWERED GARDEN TOOLS
A motor module (100) for an electrically driven garden tool comprises: a brushless DC motor (102) having a motor drive shaft (104); and a gearbox having an output shaft (108), the gearbox configured to receive the motor drive shaft (104) from the brushless DC motor (102) and drive a rotary element of the electrically driven garden tool with the output shaft (108), wherein the gearbox having a gear reduction ratio of at least 2:1. An electrically driven garden tool comprises: a housing (602) comprising a receptacle for receiving a motor module (100); and a rotary element drivable with an electric motor, the rotary element comprises a receiving element having a keyed interface corresponding to the keyed surface (122) or structure on the output shaft (108) of the motor module (100). A grass compactor (900) comprises: mounting structure to attach the grass compactor (900) to a lawn mower (1000); an inlet (1104) for receiving cut grass from an underside of the lawn mower (1000); a channel (1206) for transporting cut grass from the inlet (1104) to a feed hopper (1400); and a compaction conveyor (1404) configured to receive cut grass from the feed hopper (1400), and to compact and convey cut grass along a length thereof and discharge compacted cut grass from the outlet (1210).
MOBILE ROBOT SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR GENERATING BOUNDARY INFORMATION OF MOBILE ROBOT SYSTEM
The present specification relates to a mobile robot system and a method for generating boundary information of the mobile robot system, wherein the mobile robot system generates first map data for the locations of a plurality of transmitters installed in a driving area on the basis of the result of receiving the transmission signals from the plurality of transmitters, receives second map data for an area corresponding to the driving area from a communication target means in which map information of an area including the driving area is stored, and matches the first map data and the second map data to generate boundary information about a boundary area of the driving area.
CONTROL DEVICE, WORK MACHINE, AND WORK SYSTEM
An aspect of the present invention is a control device for performing travel control of a work machine, the work machine executes work while traveling in a work region based on a reference line, and the control device comprises a setting unit that sets a distance from the reference line, a first control unit that controls the work machine to travel along a first virtual line, the first virtual line being a virtual line away from the reference line on one side, a second control unit that controls the work machine to travel along a second virtual line, the second virtual line being a virtual line away from the reference line on another side, and a selection unit that selects one of the control by the first control unit and the control by the second control unit.
MOWER, GROUND MAINTENANCE SYSTEM AND GROUND MAINTENANCE METHOD
A mower includes a first traveling unit which travels on a ground, a first operating unit which is joined to the first traveling unit and includes a blade which mows grass on the ground, and a guide member provided in front of the first traveling unit. While the first traveling unit travels forward, balls (objects) on the ground and in contact with the guide member move along the guide member.
VARIABLE CHUTE DEVICE FOR POWER MOWER
A variable chute device includes an elongated member and a deflection plate. The elongated member extends between the deflection plate and a passenger area and a power mower. The deflection plate includes a main body and an attachment portion. The attachment portion extends from the main body and movably couples the main body to a deck of the power mower. The main body is movable between a closed position, an open position, and a plurality of variably controlled partially-open positions by actuation of the elongated member. In the closed position, the main body extends across the opening of the chute to prevent grass clippings from exiting the chute through the opening, and in the plurality of variably controlled open partially-positions, the main body is spaced apart from the opening of the chute at varying gaps to control an amount of the grass clippings to exit the chute through the opening.
FRONT-LOAD DECK FOR A STAND-ON MOWER
In one embodiment, a stand-on mower, comprising a chassis having drive wheels operably coupled to the chassis, a platform arranged between the drive wheels, a front wheel frame, coupled to the chassis, and having pivot mounts and front wheels coupled to the pivot mounts, and a load deck mounted to the front wheel frame and having openings through which the pivot mounts extend.
Power and cooling system for utility vehicle
A power and cooling assembly is disclosed for use with a vehicle having a deck for a rotatable tool such as a mowing blade. An electric motor is mounted on the deck and used to drive the blades by an output shaft. A circulating pump is connected to a housing of the electric motor and is also driven by the electric motor. The circulating pump is hydraulically connected to at least one sump on the vehicle and at least one electrical component of the vehicle to provide cooling thereto. Additional cooling pumps may be provided on the vehicle and may provide cooling to additional electrical components.
Autonomous mower navigation system and method
A method for autonomous mower navigation includes performing a training operation for an area including identifying a GPS signal associated with a training apparatus, iteratively recording data associated geolocations of the training apparatus as the training apparatus moves along a trajectory through the area, smoothing the geolocation data associated with the trajectory, and storing the smoothed geolocation data. The method can include subsequent to the training operation, performing a greens association process including establishing a link between the autonomous mower and an RTK-GPS base, receiving by the autonomous mower correction data from the RTK-GPS base, and determining an approach angle to a work area, wherein the path the autonomous mower travels to the work zone is defined by the approach angle.
