    摘要: A transport climate control system includes a vision system having an image capturing device to capture an image. An image recognition system is configured to analyze the captured image to obtain analyzed image data, and determine an instruction for adjusting operation of the transport climate control system or the transport unit. A controller is configured to execute the determined instruction. A method of controlling a transport climate control system that provides climate control within a climate controlled space of a transport unit that includes an image capturing device capturing an image within a climate controlled space is provided. The method includes analyzing the captured image by an image recognition system communicatively connected with the image capturing device; determining an instruction; and a controller executing the determined instruction.

    摘要: A method of power demand management is provided. The method includes an electrically powered climate control unit (CCU) detecting one or more additional electrically powered CCUs in a vicinity of the electrically powered CCU and the CCU establishing a communication link with the one or more additional electrically powered CCUs. The method includes generating and transmitting a pending power request to demand power from the power source to the CCU. The CCU monitors for one or more additional pending power requests from the one or more additional CCUs and monitors its position within a power request queue for obtaining power from the power source amongst the CCU and the one or more additional CCUs. Also, the method includes the electrically powered CCU demanding power from the power source when its position within the power request queue is high enough to demand power from the power source.

    摘要: A method for preserving autonomous operation of a transport climate control system is provided. The method includes the controller determining whether a regulatory compliance at a current location is restricting and/or preventing the use of a prime mover for powering the transport climate control system while a transport unit is in transit. When the controller determines that use of the prime mover is not being restricted or prevented because of a regulatory compliance, the method includes operating the transport climate control system and the transport power system in an energy harvesting operation mode for storing excess power generated by the prime mover into the auxiliary energy storage. When the controller determines that use of the prime mover is being restricted or prevented because of a regulatory compliance, the method includes the controller instructing the auxiliary energy storage to provide power to the transport climate control system.

    摘要: Systems and methods of controlling an association between wireless devices in an assigned domain or bonded area of a transport unit are disclosed. Generally, the embodiments include identifying wireless devices in a bounded area, and establishing an association between the wireless devices. The method may include identifying new wireless device(s) when the transport unit is away from other transport units, and establishing an association with the new wireless device(s). Confirming that the transport unit is away from other transport units may include determining that the transport unit is in a motion state for a predetermined period of time.

    摘要: Methods of controlling transport climate control systems are provided to reduce the impact of their operation on the sleep of an occupant, who can be in a nearby sleeping space. Methods include obtaining occupant sleep status data, determining one or more operational parameters of the transport climate control system based on the occupant sleep status data, and operating the transport climate control system according to the one or more operational parameters to control when at least one of a motor, a compressor, a generator, or one or more fans are in operation during an occupant sleep state. The methods can be implemented by a controller of a transport climate control system or a control module for such a system.

    摘要: A method for optimizing power distribution amongst one or more electrical supply equipment stations at a power distribution site is provided. The method includes obtaining infrastructure data about the power distribution site, obtaining vehicle/transport climate control system data from one or more transport climate control systems and one or more vehicles demanding power from the one or more electrical supply equipment, and obtaining external data from an external source that can impact power demand from the one or more transport climate control systems. Each of the one or more transport climate control systems configured to provide climate control within a climate controlled space. The method also includes generating an optimized power distribution schedule based on the infrastructure data, the vehicle/ transport climate control system data and the external data, and distributing power to the one or more transport climate control systems based on the optimized power distribution schedule.
