LAS VEGAS COAL SHOW 2000LAS VEGAS COAL SHOW 2000Design of Prototype FreedomTM Car starts late in July 2000.

Prototype FreedomTM Car is displayed in 2000 Las Vegas Coal Show.

Prototype receives MSHA approval in Sept 2001 in time for Bluefield Coal Show.

Prototype enters production in local coal mine in October 2001.

Prototype works well and is returned to Phillips for Motor and Electronics upgrades.

Prototype begins a series of demonstration trials and is in production today at Consol’s Emery Mine in Utah.

ADVANTAGES

TM

Properly Loaded Shuttle Car

100% Efficiency

TM

Miner Discharge and Conveyor Width Compatible

TM

Miner Begins To Load

TM

Conveyor Begins To Fill

TM

Loaded Profile Achieves Near 100% Efficiency

BATTERY OPERATED

Cable free - no turn-around

Proven battery life

Simple battery change-out

Flexible haulage routes

TM

Use anywhere that a conventional

cable shuttle car, diesel hauler or

battery coal hauler can be used.

The Freedom™ Car can be used as a

3rd or 4th haulage vehicle when using

cable shuttle cars.

APPLICATIONS

TM

Best loading efficiency

All the efficiencies of a shuttle car without the cable.

Operates as a shuttle car or loop hauls like a conventional coal hauler

The Freedom™ Car does not have to turn around to have the

loading end pointed at the continuous miner or the dumping

end at the feeder breaker.

OVERVIEW

OVERVIEW

TM

Highly efficient electronics help conserve battery power.

Shortest round trip distance from the feeder to the miner and back provides for

increased battery life. Consumes less energy per trip Less kilowatt-hours consumed per ton More tons per charge cycle Cost per ton is lower with the FreedomTM Car

Phillips Electronic Control Benefits Electronic Traction Differential

Less deterioration of floor conditions Less stress on tires Less stress on all other components

Conveyor Infinitely Variable Speed Control Maximizes loading efficiency Less stress on conveyor chain and drive

components

OVERVIEW


OVERVIEW

TM

The Freedom™ Car was designed around proven shuttle

car type component parts.

Shuttle cars have a proven low maintenance cost.


New heavy-duty frame construction utilizing special steels at high

stress areas.

Simplified frame design eliminates the discharge conveyor boom,

strengthening the frame and adding carrying capacity.

Tire wear is reduced by mounting the batteries in the center of the

car, allowing the tires to carry more equal loads.

CHASSIS DESIGN

TM

Tire cost lower on Freedom™ Car because of

the following:


Four wheel steering

Four wheel drive

More equal weight

distribution
