    Abstract: In a vehicle power supply device mounted on a vehicle and obtaining a low voltage power supply from a high voltage power supply via a step-down means, electric shock to the human body is prevented without using an insulating means such as a transformer. A vehicle power supply device converts power from high voltage to low voltage by selectively connecting a predetermined power storage element group to a low voltage electric load from a high voltage power supply formed by connecting power storage elements in series. A leakage current from the high voltage power supply is measured during the dead time period when the power storage element group is not connected to the low voltage electric load. When the value exceeds a predetermined value, cutting off the power supply from the high-voltage power supply to the high-voltage load device, so that electric shock is prevented.

    Abstract: A control system for off-highway battery application powertrain systems that allows the operator to select one or more performance/operating modes. The one or more performance modes may be based on the work that needs to be accomplished using the machine vs. the hours needed before the next charge opportunity. Modes will take typically into consideration battery management system performance maps, Electric motor/inverter performance maps, pump performance maps and other systems communicating with the powertrain system. The operator is in control to optimize refill and/or next battery charge. The operator may have the option to select performance modes based on excavator performance vs. battery life. Remaining time and warning messages may be periodically sent to the operator based on the performance mode selected and current state of charge.

    Abstract: A method for generating a new ground speed power take-off (G-PTO) map that includes a relationship between a current work vehicle speed and a target speed of a power take-off (PTO). The method includes setting a work vehicle speed for a point to be included in the new G-PTO map, setting a PTO speed for the point to be included in the new G-PTO map, plotting the point on the new G-PTO map, and plotting a line on the new G-PTO map based on the point.

    Abstract: Battery management systems, removable battery assemblies with integrated battery management systems, and vehicles are provided for implementing the various runtime calculations disclosed herein. A vehicle, which may be a materials handling vehicle, is provided comprising a drive subsystem, a removable battery assembly, and vehicle control hardware. The battery assembly comprises a battery management system programmed to input or generate a state of charge signal representing a state of charge SOC of the battery assembly, implement a first EWMA signal filter F1 to calculate a succession of contemporary current calculations IC, implement a second EWMA signal filter F2 to calculate a runtime current IR, wherein the runtime current calculation IR comprises the contemporary current calculations IC from the first EWMA signal filter F1, and implement a remaining runtime calculation such that the vehicle control hardware responds functionally to the runtime calculation.
