Method And Apparatus For Vehicle Control, Navigation And Positioning

View page
US Patent:
20020165649, Nov 7, 2002
Filed:
May 7, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/850288
Inventors:
Andrew Wilhelm Rekow - Waterloo IA, US
David Bevly - Robstown TX, US
Bradford Parkinson - Los Altos CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees Of The Leland Stanford Junior University
International Classification:
G01C021/00
US Classification:
701/026000, 701/205000
Abstract:
The present invention provides for a method and apparatus for providing navigation and positioning for at least one or more slave vehicles, wherein the slave vehicles provide their own navigation based on a location of a master vehicle. The method and apparatus allow a slave vehicle to receive a location of a master vehicle and a location of the slave vehicle. Once the location of the vehicles are known, the slave vehicle determines a desired position based on the master vehicle location, determines if adjustments are needed to position the first slave vehicle at the desired position and implements the adjustments if adjustments are needed. The slave vehicle is capable of operating in one of a plurality of modes and further is capable of transitioning from a first mode of operation to a second mode of operation in optimizing navigation and control

US Patent:
20070256884, Nov 8, 2007
Filed:
May 3, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/416949
Inventors:
Andrew Wilhelm Rekow - Cedar Falls IA, US
Troy Schick - Cedar Falls IA, US
Todd Rea - Cedar Falls IA, US
Robert Recker - Waterloo IA, US
International Classification:
B62D 5/06
US Classification:
180403000
Abstract:
A steering control system is provided for a vehicle having a steering wheel, steerable wheels, and a hydraulic steering actuator for controlling a steering angle of the steerable wheels in response to a hydraulic control signal. The steering control system includes a hydro-mechanical valve coupled to the steering wheel and generating a first hydraulic signal as a function of steering wheel position, an electro-hydraulic valve generating a second hydraulic signal as a function of an electronic control signal, an electronic control unit generating the electronic control signal, and a hydraulic combining unit which combines the first and second hydraulic signals supplies the hydraulic control signal to the hydraulic steering actuator. The steering control system also includes a steering wheel angle sensor, a yaw rate sensor, and a steered wheel angle sensor. The control unit generates an electronic control signal as a function of the sensor signals.

Dual Engine Hybrid Vehicle Drive

US Patent:
20120285291, Nov 15, 2012
Filed:
May 10, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/104115
Inventors:
Bin Shi - Cedar Falls IA, US
Andrew K. Rekow - Cedar Falls IA, US
Janet R. Willett - Cedar Falls IA, US
International Classification:
F16H 37/06
US Classification:
74665 A, 180 6522, 903902
Abstract:
A vehicle hybrid drive supplies torque to an axle. The drive includes a first engine and a transmission which couples the first engine to the axle. The drive also includes a second engine, a flywheel driven by the second engine, an electric generator driven by the flywheel, a generator controller coupled between the generator and a motor controller, and an electric motor coupled to the motor controller. A gearbox is coupled between the electric motor and the axle. The vehicle drive may also include a further flywheel driven by the first engine, with the transmission being driven by the second flywheel.

Axial Fan Assembly

View page
US Patent:
20120308373, Dec 6, 2012
Filed:
Jun 1, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/150709
Inventors:
Scott K. Farlow - Cedar Falls IA, US
Christopher A. Bering - Dike IA, US
Andrew K. Rekow - Cedar Falls IA, US
International Classification:
F04D 29/54
US Classification:
4152081
Abstract:
A fan assembly includes an axial flow fan between an inlet stator and an outlet stator. The inlet stator has inlet stator blades which extend outwardly from an inner ring. Each inlet stator blade has a downstream edge which has a tangent which is oriented at a first variable angle with respect to a plane which is perpendicular to the fan axis. The first angle increases with increasing distance from the inner support ring. The outlet stator has a plurality of outlet stator blades which extend outwardly from a second inner ring. Each outlet stator blade has an upstream edge which has a tangent which is oriented at a second variable angle with respect to a plane which is perpendicular to the fan axis. The second angle decreases with increasing distance from the inner ring.
