METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR POWERING A GENERATOR WITH A VEHICLE POWER TAKE-OFF

摘要

Methods and systems are presented for powering a generator via a flexible driveshaft coupled to a vehicle power take off unit. In one example, a flexible driveshaft with a non-rotatable outer sheath and inner, rotatable mandrel may be coupled to a generator complementary connector to power the generator with torque from a power take off unit.
