Abstract

A pump jack emissions reduction system is disclosed. Comprising the pump jack emissions reduction system comprises a mount, a shaft having a shaft axis, two or more shaft fly wheels, a motor, and an adjustable motor mount bracket assembly. The mount is configured to attach to a pump jack. The shaft is rotatably attached to a portion of the mount. The adjustable motor mount bracket assembly is configured to receive and hold the motor, and selectively adjust relative to the shaft. The adjustable motor mount bracket assembly comprises a first motor mount bracket and a floating motor mount bracket the floating motor mount bracket is configured to attach to the mount through one or more mounting apertures in the mount. The first motor mount bracket is configured to selectively slide in a longitudinal direction relative to the floating motor mount bracket through one or more alignment apertures.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A pump jack emissions reduction system, comprising:
 said pump jack emissions reduction system comprises a mount, a shaft having a shaft axis, two or more shaft fly wheels, a motor, and an adjustable motor mount bracket assembly;   said mount is configured to attach to a pump jack;   said shaft is rotatably attached to a portion of said mount;   said adjustable motor mount bracket assembly is configured to
 receive and hold said motor, and 
 selectively adjust relative to said shaft; 
   said adjustable motor mount bracket assembly comprises a first motor mount bracket and a floating motor mount bracket   said floating motor mount bracket is configured to attach to said mount through one or more mounting apertures in said mount;   said first motor mount bracket is configured to selectively slide in a longitudinal direction relative to said floating motor mount bracket through one or more alignment apertures;   said adjustable motor mount bracket assembly can further comprise a threaded adjustment assembly configured to adjust said first motor mount bracket in said longitudinal direction by rotating a nut and a threading to move said first motor mount bracket;   the adjustable motor mount bracket assembly is used to maintain an alignment between the shaft, the motor and a pumpjack drive assembly by maintaining an alignment between one or more mounting apertures, one or more alignment apertures and the threaded adjustment assembly;   accordingly, said pump jack emissions reduction system can put an even pressure on a belt between said motor and the two or more shaft fly wheels; and   said belt guard assembly comprises a guard and a guard plate, providing protection and facilitating maintenance of the belt system.   
     
     
         2 . A pump jack emissions reduction system for improving the efficiency of a pump jack by adjusting a torque and power characteristic of a motor when applied to a pumpjack drive assembly of said pump jack and thereby reduce scope 2 emissions associated with the operation of said pump jack, wherein:
 said pump jack emissions reduction system comprises a mount, a shaft having a shaft axis, two or more shaft fly wheels, the motor, and an adjustable motor mount bracket assembly;   said mount is configured to attach to the pump jack;   said shaft is rotatably attached to a portion of said mount;   said adjustable motor mount bracket assembly is configured to
 receive and hold said motor, and 
 selectively adjust relative to said shaft; 
   said adjustable motor mount bracket assembly comprises a first motor mount bracket and a floating motor mount bracket   said floating motor mount bracket is configured to attach to said mount through one or more mounting apertures in said mount;   said first motor mount bracket is configured to selectively slide in a longitudinal direction relative to said floating motor mount bracket through one or more alignment apertures;   said adjustable motor mount bracket assembly can further comprise a threaded adjustment assembly configured to adjust said first motor mount bracket in said longitudinal direction by rotating a nut and a threading to move said first motor mount bracket;   the adjustable motor mount bracket assembly is used to maintain an alignment between the shaft, the motor and the pumpjack drive assembly by maintaining an alignment between one or more mounting apertures, one or more alignment apertures and the threaded adjustment assembly; and   accordingly, said pump jack emissions reduction system can put an even pressure on a belt between said motor and the two or more shaft fly wheels.   
     
     
         3 . The pump jack emissions reduction system of  claim 2 , wherein:
 said belt guard assembly comprises a guard and a guard plate, providing protection and facilitating maintenance of the belt system.   
     
     
         4 . The pump jack emissions reduction system of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the shaft rotatably secured by one or more mounted ball bearings and configured to rotate around the shaft axis.   
     
     
         5 . The pump jack emissions reduction system of  claim 2 , wherein:
 the motor and a motor fly wheel, wherein the motor is configured to drive the shaft and optimize energy consumption of the pump jack.   
     
     
         6 . The pump jack emissions reduction system of  claim 2 , wherein:
 said pump jack emissions reduction system is configured to be retrofitted onto an existing of the pump jack, thereby enhancing efficiency without the need for complete replacement of the pump jack.   
     
     
         7 . The pump jack emissions reduction system of  claim 2 , wherein:
 a belt guard assembly designed to enclose and protect a reduction belt between said shaft and said motor.   
     
     
         8 . The pump jack emissions reduction system of  claim 2 , wherein:
 one or more mounted ball bearings, arranged to facilitate rotational movement of a shaft.   
     
     
         9 . The pump jack emissions reduction system of  claim 2 , wherein:
 said one or more mounted ball bearings include a first mounted ball bearing and a second mounted ball bearing, each housed within two or more ball bearing housings.   
     
     
         10 . A method of use for reducing Scope 2 emissions in a pump jack, comprising:
 installing a pump jack emissions reduction system onto an existing pump jack;   adjusting one or more mounted ball bearings to optimize rotational efficiency;   enclosing a belt system of the pump jack using a belt guard assembly; wherein,   said pump jack emissions reduction system comprises a mount, configured to attach to a pump jack;   said one or more mounted ball bearings, arranged to facilitate rotational movement of a shaft;   said belt guard assembly, designed to enclose and protect a belt system of the pump jack; and   wherein the system is configured to reduce scope 2 emissions associated with the operation of the pump jack.   
     
     
         11 . The method of use of  claim 10 , wherein:
