Power systems and enclosures having an improved compressor drive
Systems are disclosed for power systems and enclosures having an improved compressor drive. In examples, a power system includes a generator to be driven by an engine. The generator is coupled to the engine on a first side of the generator and has a clutch extending from a second side of the generator opposite the engine. The clutch is coupled to the engine. A compressor is positioned at the second side of the generator opposite from the engine. The compressor comprising a shaft extending toward the generator and configured to be driven by the clutch.
INVERTER GENERATOR
A standby generator includes an internal combustion engine, an alternator, and a controller. The internal combustion engine includes an engine housing, an engine block, and a crankshaft. The engine housing at least partially covers the engine block. The engine block includes a cylinder. The crankshaft is configured to rotate about a vertical crankshaft axis in response to movement by the cylinder. The alternator includes a stator, as well as a rotor that is configured to rotate with the rotation of the crankshaft to produce electrical power. The controller includes an inverter that is configured to receive electrical power from the alternator and output alternating current electrical power. The controller extends at least partially above the engine housing.
NOISE REDUCTION APPARATUS AND GENERATOR ASSEMBLY
A noise reduction apparatus includes a housing, a first baffle component, and a second baffle component. The housing includes a first installation chamber configured to contain diesel generating equipment, and the first installation chamber has a top plate, a bottom plate, and a first side plate, and a second side plate that is disposed opposite the first installation chamber from the first side plate. An air intake vent is disposed on the first side plate, and an air exhaust vent is disposed on the second side plate. A first serpentine channel is formed in the first baffle component, and one end of the first serpentine channel is connected to the air intake vent. A second serpentine channel is formed in the second baffle component, and one end of the second serpentine channel is connected to the air exhaust vent.
Platform with an autonomous powering engine for mounting onto a firewood splitting apparatus
A platform for mounting of an autonomous powering engine onto a firewood splitting apparatus includes a rigid bearing frame on which a powering engine is mounted. The engine is connected to a transmission, which is mechanically connected with a cardan coupling of a firewood splitting apparatus. The frame is arranged a distance apart from the ground and in a plane parallel to a plane defined by resting surfaces on supporting legs of a firewood splitting machine. The frame is furnished with two parallel and pivotal linear bearing beams that are pivotal around the axis that extends perpendicularly with respect to the plane of the frame and is pivotally connected with each corresponding connecting seat to establish a detachable interconnection with each disposable bottom connecting seat on a firewood splitting apparatus.
Road-transportable genset emissions reduction system
Given that power blackouts occur very infrequently, a TRANSportable GENset emissions reduction system (XGEN) that fixes a larger and more significant problem of reducing emissions from routine periodic testing of gensets, whereas the system may be scheduled to be shared by a multitude of gensets, thereby reducing costs through efficient use of capital expenditures while also increasing the quality of emissions reductions as compared to applying individual exhaust treatments each genset.
AIR-COOLING SYSTEM FOR PORTABLE GENERATOR
Devices, systems, and methods to air cool a portable generator are disclosed. The devices include various air ducts to direct airflow over heated components within a cabinet of the portable generator to cool the components by convection. A damping fan draws ambient temperature air into the cabinet and directs the air into channels of an outflow duct.
Guiding mechanisms for modular generator set system
In general, techniques of this disclosure are directed to a modular generator set system. A generator set system may comprise a primary module, which may include an engine, a generator coupled to the engine, a primary frame configured to support the engine and the generator, and a first guiding element. The generator set system may also include a secondary module, a secondary frame, and a second guiding element that is reciprocal to the first guiding element such that, during installation of the secondary module, the second guiding element is configured to interface with the first guiding element to align the secondary module for purposes of automatically electrically or fluidically coupling the primary module to the secondary module upon assembling the primary frame and the secondary frame.
TRANSPORTATION TRAILER AND MACHINERY COUPLING ALIGNMENT SYSTEM
A turbomachinery power generation station can be too large and heavy for transportation. Thus, embodiments are disclosed for separating a full power generation station into road-ready turbine and generator trailers, as well as realigning and recoupling the trailers for operation of the power generation station at a desired destination.
Plenum for generator set and systems and methods thereof
A plenum for processing one or more byproducts output from a generator, and systems and methods thereof, can have the plenum in the form of a hollow elongate rectangular box having a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The plenum can have a frame and a sidewall fixed to the frame, and can be adapted to be oriented vertically when operatively coupled to receive the one or more byproducts from the generator. The sidewall can include an opening adapted to receive heated air from the generator as one of the byproducts from the generator.
