    摘要: A carbon monoxide shutoff system for an engine of a portable electrical generator has a carbon monoxide gas sensor, a microcontroller, and an output indicator. The carbon monoxide gas sensor generates an output electrical current proportional to a detected concentration of ambient carbon monoxide. The microcontroller has an input connected to the carbon monoxide gas sensor, and an output connected to an operational control of the engine. A deactivation signal generated by the microcontroller in response to detection of a deactivation condition is based upon the output electrical current from the carbon monoxide gas sensor matching predefined value and duration thresholds. The deactivation signal is operative to stop the engine.

    摘要: An expandable power station includes a housing and an onboard battery system positioned within the housing. The expandable power station is electrically connectable to battery systems of one or more expansion batteries to increase a battery level available to the onboard battery system of the expandable power station and electrically connectable to a linking module configured to combine a power output of the expandable power station and a separate power output of a separate expandable power station into an increased power output. Further, the expandable power station includes a plurality of supports extending from the housing. The plurality of supports is configured to separately support one expansion battery of the one or more expansion batteries and the linking module directly thereon.

    摘要: A power station assembly includes two power stations and a linking module configured to receive respective power outputs from the two power stations and combine the respective power outputs into an increased power output. Each of the two power stations includes a housing having opposing first and second sidewalls and a plurality of power output receptacles positioned on the first sidewall. The linking module includes a housing having opposing first and second ends and configured to fit between the housings of the two power stations in a stacked configuration, with the first end of the housing of the linking module and the first sidewalls of the housings of the two power stations facing the same direction. The linking module further includes at least one power output receptacle located at the first end of the housing and configured to provide the increased power output.
