Zusammenfassung:A hybrid power module efficiently delivers both hydraulic power and electric power. The hybrid power module may regenerate and store energy for later use. The module includes and engine and an electric motor for driving a hydraulic pump. The electric motor is operable as a starter motor for the engine and as an assist motor cooperating with the engine to power the hydraulic pump to improve dynamic response of the hydraulic pump. The module also includes an electric power source which may have an energy storage unit, and the electric motor may be operated as an electric generator providing electric energy to the energy storage unit.
