Tandem battery powered inverter and method of implementing same

Abstract

AC inverters that are electrically connected to a direct current source to convert the direct current source such that the transistor power module of an inverter can power a plurality of AC motors wherein the motors can be located remote from the inverters or within the inverter housings.

1 . An alternating current inverter comprising: 
 a housing;    a power module within the housing;    a direct current source in electrical communication with the housing; and    a plurality of electric motors in electrical communication with the power module;    the power module having two separate and independently    drivable power stages for driving the electric motors; and    wherein at least one motor is disposed within the housing.    
   
   
       2 - 14 . (canceled)  
   
   
       15 . The device of  claim 1  wherein the inverter is cooled by hydraulic fluid.  
   
   
       16 - 20 . (canceled)  
   
   
       21 . A method of inverting direct current into alternating current comprising the steps of: 
 providing an alternating current inverter that is in electrical communication with a direct current source;    providing a power module within the inverter; and    connecting a plurality of electric motors to the inverter;    providing a power module that has two separate and independently drivable power stages for driving the electric motors; and    cooling the inverter with hydraulic fluid.
