A system and method for actuating battery power for a mower that include receiving an input through a battery status switch of the battery. The system and method also include inputting a battery actuation switch based on receiving the input through the battery status switch. The system and method additionally include supplying an electronic signal to a microprocessor of the battery to supply power to a motor controller of the mower based on the input of the battery actuation switch. The system and method further include supplying electrical voltage to a motor of the mower to operate the motor based on the power supplied to the motor controller from the battery.

An electric vehicle includes: an electric motor; a wheel that is driven by the electric motor; a power transmission mechanism that defines at least a part of a power transmission path between the electric motor and the wheel and that transmits rotational power of the electric motor to the wheel; a wheel brake that is provided on the wheel; an electromagnetic brake that stops rotation of the electric motor; and a controller that maintains a control value of a rotation speed of the electric motor at 0 and activates the electromagnetic brake when a vehicle speed becomes lower than or equal to a predetermined value close to 0.

An electric compact tractor powered by a plurality of lithium ion battery modules housed in a battery pack. A pair of electrical bus bars connect the plurality of lithium ion battery modules in the battery pack, and extend from the battery pack to electric motors for traction drive, implement drive and steering. A low voltage control circuit may be used for turning on the plurality of lithium ion battery modules in the battery pack.

A working vehicle includes a vehicle body, a traveling device which supports the vehicle body such that the vehicle body is allowed to travel, an electric motor to drive the traveling device, the electric motor being provided on the vehicle body, and a plurality of batteries to store electric power to be supplied to the electric motor, wherein the plurality of batteries include an on-board battery fixed to the vehicle body and a mobile battery detachably attached to the vehicle body.

Systems, apparatus and methods may be configured to implement actively-controlled light emission from a robotic vehicle. A light emitter(s) of the robotic vehicle may be configurable to indicate a direction of travel of the robotic vehicle and/or display information (e.g., a greeting, a notice, a message, a graphic, passenger/customer/client content, vehicle livery, customized livery) using one or more colors of emitted light (e.g., orange for a first direction and purple for a second direction), one or more sequences of emitted light (e.g., a moving image/graphic), or positions of light emitter(s) on the robotic vehicle (e.g., symmetrically positioned light emitters). The robotic vehicle may not have a front or a back (e.g., a trunk/a hood) and may be configured to travel bi-directionally, in a first direction or a second direction (e.g., opposite the first direction), with the direction of travel being indicated by one or more of the light emitters.

The invention relates to a system for wirelessly charging an electrically chargeable device, in particular a mobile inspection robot, in a potentially explosive environment. The invention also relates to a charging station for use in such a system according to the invention. The invention further relates to an electrically chargeable device, in particular an inspection robot, for use in such a system according to the invention. In addition, the invention relates to a method for wirelessly charging an electrically chargeable device, in particular a mobile inspection robot, by using such a system according to the invention.

An energy storage system for a military vehicle includes a lower support, a battery supported on the lower support, a bracket coupled to the battery, and an upper isolator mount coupled between the bracket and a wall. The upper isolator mount is configured to provide front-to-back vibration isolation of the battery relative to the wall.

The present disclosure relates to a power supply device for an electric excavator, the power supply device including a power supply unit configured to supply power of a battery to an electric motor unit, a first charging port connected to the power supply unit and configured to supply first external power to the battery, an on-board charger (OBC) connected to the power supply unit and configured to convert alternating current into direct current when alternating current power is inputted, and a second charging port connected to the OBC and configured to supply second external power to the OBC, in which the power supply unit supplies charging power of the OBC or supplies the charging power of the OBC and power of the battery power to the electric motor unit on the basis of the amount of required power of the electric motor unit and the amount of charging power of the OBC.

A vehicle control system determines an upper non-zero limit on deceleration of a vehicle to prevent rollback of the vehicle down a grade being traveled up on by the vehicle. The upper non-zero limit on deceleration is determined by the controller based on a payload carried by the vehicle, a speed of the vehicle, and a grade of a route being traveled upon by the vehicle. The controller is configured to monitor the deceleration of the vehicle, and to automatically prevent the deceleration of the vehicle from exceeding the upper non-zero limit by controlling one or more of a brake or a motor of the vehicle. The controller also is configured to one or more of actuate the brake or supply current to the motor of the vehicle to prevent rollback of the vehicle while the vehicle is moving up the grade at a non-zero speed.
