摘要： The trolling motor system includes a chassis adapted to be coupled to a boat, a housing pivotally coupled to the chassis, a lower propulsion unit, at least one shaft supported by the housing and coupled to the lower propulsion unit at a first end and a drive system including at least one actuator. The at least one shaft extends along a first axis. The first end is movable relative to the housing along the first axis. The drive system includes at least one actuator, a linear drive, a pivot drive and a coupler. The linear drive moves the first end of the first shaft along the first axis while the pivot drive pivots the housing about a second axis. The coupler connects the actuator and the pivot drive to pivot the housing. In one embodiment, the coupler connects the actuator and the pivot drive based upon the position of the at least one shaft along the first axis. In one embodiment, the system includes a foot control operator interface and a control circuit coupled to the operator interface and the linear drive. The control circuit generates control signals based upon input from the operator's foot which cause the linear drive to linearly move the at least one shaft. In one embodiment, the at least one shaft includes an inner shaft coupled to the lower propulsion unit and an outer shaft receiving the inner shaft.

摘要： A torque control strategy control for management of regenerative braking in a motor vehicle. A first processor (12) processes throttle request data (20) and torque modification data (40) from a second processor (14) to develop motor torque request data (28) for controlling rotary electric machine torque. The second processor processes brake request data (26), the throttle request data, and operating data from the at least one operating data source to develop friction brake torque data (30) for controlling friction brake torque applied to the vehicle and the torque modification data for the first processor. The two processors interact such that as long as the operating data from the at least one operating data source does not require that regenerative braking torque be limited, the torque modification data supplied to the first processor from the second processor equates to the brake torque request data, and the friction brake torque data does not cause the friction brakes to be applied, and when the operating data from the at least one operating data source calls for some limiting of the regenerative braking torque, the amount of limiting is subtracted from the torque modification data and the friction brake torque data equates to that amount of limiting for causing the friction brakes to be applied in that amount. At zero and near-zero speeds grade hold torque is calculated according to a formula and added to the friction torque.

摘要： A foot-operated control for controlling both speed and steering of a trolling motor for a watercraft, the foot-operated control in communication with the trolling motor and comprising a base and a foot interface. The foot interface is pivotally connected at a generally central point by a pivot to the base, the pivot separating and defining a first end and second end of the foot interface, such that depressing the first end directs the trolling motor to steer the watercraft to the right and depressing the second end directs the trolling motor to steer the watercraft to the left. The control further comprises a power supply connected to the base, a power activation means for activating the foot-operated control, a base speed set means for pre-setting a base speed level, a reset speed set means for pre-setting a reset speed amount, a base speed activation means for directing the trolling motor to operate at the base speed level, and a reset speed activation means for directing the trolling motor to operate at a speed beyond the base speed level by the reset speed amount. By enabling both an operator-adjustable pre-set base speed and an additional operator-adjustable pre-set reset speed amount, the control allows an operator to anticipate shifting environmental conditions such as wind gusts and changing water currents and be able to increase the trolling motor speed by a precise, controlled amount to counter such conditions at the touch of a switch, and eliminate the added speed when the conditions have abated with the release or second touch of the switch without the operator's attention being diverted away from the focus of fishing.

摘要： Requested brake torque and requested throttle torque are assigned opposite algebraic signs in both rollback and non-rollback states. In the non-rollback state, requested motor torque development includes a process step (206) in which requested brake torque and requested throttle torque are algebraically summed. In the rollback state, requested motor torque development includes a process step (218) in which requested throttle torque is substituted for the regeneration torque limit. In the rollback state, the difference between the requested throttle torque and the requested brake torque is compared with a zero vehicle speed regeneration torque limit (228) when the result of comparing the difference between requested throttle torque and the requested brake torque with the regeneration torque limit (222) discloses that the latter difference does not exceed the regeneration torque limit. The result is used to determine respective amounts of motor torque and friction brake torque (230, 232, 234, 236).
