AXLE GENERATOR
A generator system for connection to a vehicle axle. The generator system includes: an electrically-actuated clutch having an engaged position and a disengaged position; a generator and a processor. The generator includes: a rotor configured to be selectively connected, via the clutch, to the vehicle axle; and a stator. In the engaged position, the rotor is connected to the vehicle axle via the clutch such that torque from the vehicle axle is transmitted to the rotor. In the disengaged position, torque from the vehicle axle is not transmitted to the rotor. The processor is configured to control the clutch to actuate between the engaged and disengaged positions, and the processor is configured to monitor an electrical output of the generator, wherein the processor is configured to command the clutch to move to the disengaged position if the electrical output moves outside a predetermined range.

ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM AND ADJUSTMENT METHOD
An adjustment system includes: an accommodation unit configured to contain a perishable product; a first identification unit configured to be capable of identifying condition information about a condition of the perishable product in an accommodation unit; a second identification unit different from the first identification unit and configured to be capable of identifying condition information about a condition of the perishable product in an accommodation unit; and an adjusting unit configured to perform an adjustment to at least one of first condition information and second condition information based on a predetermined criterion, the first condition information being about the condition information for the perishable product identified at a first time by the first identification unit, the second condition information being about the condition information for the perishable product identified at a second time by the second identification unit, the second time being different from the first time.
Cold storage container, cold storage container management system, and cold storage program
The present application is directed to cooling containers that rely on refrigerants. The cooling container is able to efficiently keep items cool by adjusting the input and output of cool air inside the cooling container. For example, storage area no. 1 can keep the refrigerants used for keeping insulated items cool. Plank 1 is parallel to the storage area 1. Plank 2 is parallel to plank 1 and storage area no. 2 storing insulated items therein. The planks 1 and 2 are perpendicularly placed above and below a horizontal plane. Planks 1 and 2 can be adjusted to be higher or lower, so as to adjust the distance therebetween. This allows more efficient control of the airflow of the cool air before the air goes into storage area 2.
