Auxiliary power system for automotive vehicle

TL;DR: An auxiliary power and suspension system for an automotive vehicle comprising suspension means, power transmission means, and power conversion means is described in this paper, where the suspension means mounts the wheels on the vehicle frame and allows limited vertical movement of the wheels relative to the frame in response to changes in contour of terrain traversed by the wheels.
Patent

Single-phase motor controls using unitary signal-controlled bi-directional semiconductor gate devices

TL;DR: In this article, an external control circuit for single-phase electric motors of the split-phase, capacitor-start inductance-run, and capacitorstart capacitor-run kinds in which the starting winding is connected to a power supply through a series circuit including a single unitary signal-controlled bidirectional gate device or by a plurality of such devices triggered from a common sensing means is described.
Patent

Solid state motor starting control

TL;DR: In this paper, an improved solid state motor starting switch is disclosed, which switch is adaptable to single-phase induction motors of the split-phase, capacitor-start, or capacitor start capacitor run type, the switch circuit utilizing bidirectional semiconductor devices and a running winding current sensitive control device such as a bias resistor, inductor or transformer, for operating the semiconductor device to ON and OFF states, respectively, during motor starting and motor running conditions.
Patent

Multiple speed single phase motor

TL;DR: In this article, a multiple speed alternating current motor is disclosed for operation from a source of single phase alternating current power, and the first and second windings are supplied with operating power through a multiple position switch.
