Electric Drive Riding Mower

View page
US Patent:
7610975, Nov 3, 2009
Filed:
Jan 10, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/480044
Inventors:
Jackie R. Gust - Apple Valley MN, US
Eric A. Metheny - Woodbury MN, US
Dana R. Lonn - Minneapolis MN, US
Heinrich F. Tetzlaff - Apple Valley MN, US
Dennis J. Pavlik - Eagan MN, US
Mark S. Anderson - Prior Lake MN, US
Assignee:
The Toro Company - Bloomington MN
International Classification:
B60K 6/46
US Classification:
180 65245, 56 106, 903930
Abstract:
An electric drive mower includes an electric traction drive as well as electric drive to the cutting units carried on the mower. A hybrid electric drive system supplies electric power to these motors. The electric drive system includes a genset (an internal combustion engine driving an electrical power generating device such as an alternator) and a battery pack which supply the electric power to the electric motors either individually or jointly. A switch may be provided to permit all battery operation of the mower. A steering system having a non-powered pump is used to effect steering of the steerable wheel(s) of the mower to avoid having a heated oil damage the turf in the event of a leak. A crankshaft driven by a single electric drive motor is linked to all the cutting units through various crankarm and connecting rod linkages to lift and lower the cutting units in a timed manner.

Turf Maintenance Vehicle Multiple Controller Method And Apparatus

View page
US Patent:
6230089, May 8, 2001
Filed:
Nov 27, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/757397
Inventors:
Dana R. Lonn - Minneapolis MN
Eric Allen Metheny - Woodbury MN
James Robert Gaebel - Eden Prairie MN
Assignee:
The Toro Company - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
G06F 1130
US Classification:
701 48
Abstract:
A system for communicating between a plurality of electronic control units (ECU's) located on-board a turf maintenance system is provided. The controllers are connected by a common bus network. When the ECU's boot up a primary controller sends a message out on the bus requesting a response if any secondary controllers are connected to the bus. The secondary controllers are programmed to listen for the request, to generate a message to identify itself, and to transmit the requested message to identify itself over the bus. The primary controller waits for a predetermined time to receive and identify the secondary controller message. The primary controller then polls for additional secondary controllers in a similar manner. Accordingly, the primary controller sequentially determines whether additional controllers are connected to the bus. Once the initial list of ECU's is built, the primary controller moves into a main program loop, including routines to exchange information with each of the secondary controllers which identified themselves during the polling process.

Turf Maintenance Vehicle Diagnostics And Parameter Condition Logger

View page
US Patent:
56572247, Aug 12, 1997
Filed:
Dec 30, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/998429
Inventors:
Dana R. Lonn - Minneapolis MN
Fredrick D. Wucherpfennig - Bloomington MN
William M. Dunford - Minneapolis MN
Assignee:
The Toro Company - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
G06F 1130
G08B 2900
US Classification:
364424034
Abstract:
The present invention provides for a turf maintenance vehicle controller which includes data logger means to store the status of predetermined parameters. The invention further includes the ability to provide such data in real time to an inexpensive diagnostic apparatus and to store the data for concurrent or later analysis by either the diagnostic apparatus or a remote microprocessor.

Electronic Control For Turf Maintenance Vehicle

View page
US Patent:
53946782, Mar 7, 1995
Filed:
May 23, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/249098
Inventors:
Dana R. Lonn - Minneapolis MN
Fredrick D. Wucherpfennig - Bloomington MN
William M. Dunford - Minneapolis MN
Assignee:
The Toro Company - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
A01D 3444
US Classification:
56 102H
Abstract:
The present invention provides for an automated clip control device for maintaining a predetermined clip at varying ground speeds, heights of cut, and other changed conditions. The reel speed of the mower 10 is controlled based upon a feed-back control loop, using as input the ground speed of the mower 10, the actual speed of the reel 48, 50, and 52, the number of blades on the reel, and height of cut, among other factors. A microprocessor 102 uses control process equations to determine the duration of an output pulse width modulated signal which is provided to a valve 702, 706 controlling hydraulic fluid flow to the reel motor 71-75. The target value of the reel speed is determined by reading the desired height of cut value and the number of blades per reel, and then going to a look-up table which contains optimized "linear distance traveled per time grass is cut" values. Once the appropriate look-up table target value is found, the target reel speed is determined by finding the product of the number of blades on the reel times the target clip times the ground speed times a constant (to correct for units).

Method And Apparatus For Soil Cultivation By High Pressure Injection Of Fluids

View page
US Patent:
51017458, Apr 7, 1992
Filed:
Aug 8, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/745990
Inventors:
Dean A. Podevels - Chanhassen MN
Robert C. Comer - Hopkins MN
Dana R. Lonn - Minneapolis MN
David J. Scherbring - Shakopee MN
John M. Beattie - Greeley CO
Charles C. Holley - Bloomington MN
Michael T. Schmidt - Bloomington MN
Assignee:
The Toro Company - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
A01C 2302
A01D 4502
US Classification:
111127
Abstract:
An apparatus and method is disclcosed for cultivating soil and turf by utilization of pressurized liquid injected into the soil and turf. A roller assembly (33) is provided for applying mechanical pressure to the turf after cultivation. Further, a means for setting a first speed in a transport mode and a second speed in a cultivating mode is provided. The apparatus is designed to be bidirectional to allow the apparatus to be used in both a forward and reverse direction. The flow of the pressurized liquid is controlled to be at intervals of from about 0. 010 to 0. 065 seconds and at pressures from about 2,300 psi to about 5,500 psi through nozzles having diameters of from about 0. 033 to about 0. 090 inches. The apparatus (10) utilizes a water hammer effect to effect the flow of pressurized liquid out of the nozzles 55 and has found a relationship in the pressure and pounds per square inch of the cross-sectional area of the bore of the manifold to the accumulated area of the output ports of the nozzles.

Supervisor Switch For Turf Mower

View page
US Patent:
54976049, Mar 12, 1996
Filed:
Feb 3, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/191796
Inventors:
Dana R. Lonn - Minneapolis MN
Assignee:
The Toro Company - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
A01D 3460
US Classification:
56 102H
Abstract:
The present invention provides for an automated supervisor switch device for maintaining an acceptable ground speed during cutting operations for a turf mower. The present invention does not interfere with the ground speed of the vehicle during cutting or non-cutting operations. In a preferred embodiment, an onboard controller and its attendant memory are provided with a predetermined maximum mowing speed. Second, the controller monitors the ground speed of the mower. Third, when the controller determines that the cutting reels are operative and the ground speed is approaching the maximum mowing speed of the mower, then operator perceptible warning is actuated to alert the operator. Fourth, if the speed exceeds the predetermined maximum mowing speed, then the controller disables the reels from mowing. In the preferred embodiment, the controller disables the reels by shutting off the hydraulic fluid flow from the hydraulic motors which rotate the cutting reels.
