    摘要: An operator for a movable barrier includes an output drive to transfer drive to the movable barrier. The output drive comprises a rotating crown wheel with an outer face carrying a plurality of shaped attachment portions, each attachment portion configured to receive an output drive extension element to engage with a drum wheel of the movable barrier. The operator further includes first and second output drive extension elements of a different size and shape, each first and second output drive extension element comprising a base portion and an elongated extension portion. The base portion is sized and shaped to be received by one or more of the outer face shaped attachment portions. Selection of the at least one first or second output drive extension element for attachment to the rotating crown wheel is made in accordance with one or more physical characteristics of the particular drum wheel.

    摘要: An energy system can store and provide energy to power a vehicle. The energy system can comprise a generator configured to generate an electrical output, a capacitor configured to receive the electrical output from the generator and store the electrical output as a capacitor energy, a battery configured to receive the capacitor energy from the capacitor, a diode electrically positioned between the capacitor and the battery and configured to convey the capacitor energy from the capacitor to the battery, and a roller configured to contact a wheel of the vehicle and to rotate about an axis in response to a rotation of the wheel to cause the generator to generate the electrical output.

    摘要: An apparatus may generate energy in response to a vehicle wheel rotation. The apparatus may include a roller, a shaft, and a generator. The roller may rotate in response to a movement or motion of the wheel and may apply a friction to the wheel to decrease a rotational velocity of the wheel. The shaft may rotate in response to a rotation of the roller. The generator may generate an electrical output based on rotation of the shaft and convey the electrical output to an energy storage device or to a motor of the vehicle.

    摘要: The disclosure is directed to an apparatus for generating energy in response to a vehicle wheel rotation. The apparatus may include a first roller comprising a curved roller surface configured to be positioned in substantial physical contact with a first wheel of the vehicle. The first roller may be configured to rotate in response to a rotation of the first wheel. The apparatus may further include a first shaft rotatably couplable to the first roller such that rotation of the first roller causes the first shaft to rotate. The apparatus may further include a first generator operably coupled to the first shaft. The generator may be configured to generate an electrical output based on the rotation of the first shaft and convey the electrical output to an energy storage device or to a motor of the vehicle that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy to rotate one or more wheels of the vehicle.

    摘要: A generator-gearbox assembly for a wind turbine A generator-gearbox assembly (200) for a wind turbine (100) comprising a generator (240) having a generator rotor (245); a gearbox (220) comprising an output shaft (230); and a connection assembly (300). The connection assembly (300) comprises a hub abutment surface (310), provided at an end (235) of the output shaft (230) and a plurality of shaft bolt holes (315); a hub (320) associated with the generator rotor (245) and comprising a body (325) and a first connecting portion (340) having a shaft abutment surface (345) facing towards the hub abutment surface (310) and at least one elongated slot (360) extending through the first connecting portion (340). The number of elongated slots (360) is less than or equal to the number of shaft bolt holes (315). A plurality of fasteners fixedly connect the hub (320) to the hub abutment surface (310), each fastener extending through a respective elongated slot (360) and a shaft bolt hole (315). Beneficially, the arrangement of the hub component with elongated slots to accommodate fixing fasteners reduces the likelihood of having to manoeuvre a cumbersome drive shaft or generator rotor into an exact position for attachment to each other. Since the slots are elongated, when the drive shaft is arranged to abut the first flange during assembly it is more likely that the shaft bolt holes of the hub abutment surface align with the elongated slots of the first flange, and so it is more likely that a connection can be made between the drive shaft and the rotor.
