Inter-Regulator Control Of Multiple Electric Power Sources

View page
US Patent:
7019495, Mar 28, 2006
Filed:
Aug 28, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/650617
Inventors:
Ciaran J. Patterson - Chicago IL, US
Assignee:
C.E. Neihoff & Co. - Evanston IL
International Classification:
H02J 3/50
H02J 3/06
H02J 1/00
H02K 7/18
US Classification:
322 7, 322 22, 322 28
Abstract:
The present invention includes a system and method for controlling multiple sources of electric power using inter-regulator control. The regulators in the system may be of a universal type that may operate either as a master regulator or a follower regulator. Determination whether a regulator operates as a master or a follower regulator may occur before operation of the system, during operation of the system, or may reverse the role of master and follower regulators in response to operating conditions. The master regulator may control its source of electric power and may send signals to the follower regulators to control their sources of electric power. The control of the sources of electric power may be based on sensing output of at least one of the sources of electric power and based on the operational characteristics of at least one of the sources of electric power. Further, the follower regulator may verify the instructions sent from the master regulator.

US Patent:
D548696, Aug 14, 2007
Filed:
Oct 18, 2005
Appl. No.:
29/240801
Inventors:
Mahmood Pourkermani - Wilmette IL, US
Ciaran Patterson - Chicago IL, US
Nisvet Basic - Chicago IL, US
Assignee:
C. E. Niehoff & Co. - Evanston IL
International Classification:
1301
US Classification:
D13114

System And Method For Electric Current And Power Monitoring And Control Of A Generator

View page
US Patent:
7466107, Dec 16, 2008
Filed:
Dec 1, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/607773
Inventors:
Nisvet Basic - Chicago IL, US
Ciaran Patterson - Chicago IL, US
Mahmood Pourkermani - Wilmette IL, US
Assignee:
C.E. Niehoff & Co. - Evanston IL
International Classification:
H02P 9/02
H02H 7/06
US Classification:
322 28, 322 37, 322 27
Abstract:
A control device measures a voltage drop across a conductor in a generator to determine and control the total generator output current. A temperature of the conductor is also measured to improve the accuracy. The control device may further improve on the accuracy by compensating for the electrical current through a field coil that may power the generator. The control device may be used in combination with a generator in a vehicle electrical system. Other system parameters may be monitored to improve on the system monitoring, diagnostics, and control. The generator may include a conductor comprising a process-controlled geometric shape.
