Electric Work Vehicle - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18516350 titled 'Electric Work Vehicle
The abstract describes an electric work vehicle with a first electric motor for driving the travel device and a second electric motor for driving a pump, powered by a battery. A charging determination section decides if the battery needs charging, and a control device manages the first electric motor, including a regeneration control section for handling regenerated power. When the battery does not need charging, the regeneration control section directs the regenerated power from the first electric motor to the second electric motor.

Original Abstract Submitted
An electric work vehicle includes a travel device; a first electric motor configured to drive the travel device; a second electric motor configured to drive a pump; a battery configured to supply electric power to the first electric motor; a charging determination section configured to determine whether or not charging of the battery is needed; and a control device configured to control the first electric motor. The control device includes a regeneration control section configured to control regenerated power generated by the first electric motor, and in response to the charging determination section determining that charging of the battery is not needed, the regeneration control section performs control to supply the regenerated power from the first electric motor to the second electric motor.
