    摘要: The disclosure provides a vehicle approach notification device and a picking truck. The vehicle approach notification device includes a first illumination portion provided on a cab capable of elevation; a second and a third illumination portion provided on a vehicle body incapable of elevation; and a control unit that (1) turns on the first illumination portion and off other illumination portions when a travel state of the vehicle body is backward travel and an elevation position is lower than a predetermined threshold value; (2) turns on the second illumination portion and off other illumination portions when the travel state is backward travel and the elevation position is equal to or higher than the threshold value; (3) turns on the third illumination portion and off other illumination portions when the travel state of vehicle is forward travel; and (4) turns off all illumination portions when the travel state is travel stop.

    摘要: A pallet detection device comprises: a point cloud acquisition unit configured to acquire point cloud data indicating a point cloud measured by a two-dimensional distance measurement device on a depth map; a straight line detection unit configured to detect a straight line corresponding to a front surface of a pallet based on the point cloud in a region presumed to include the front surface of the pallet in the point cloud data; a line segment detection unit configured to detect a line segment indicating the front surface of the pallet based on the straight line; and a position/orientation acquisition unit configured to acquire position and orientation of the pallet based on the line segment. The straight line detection unit acquires one or more straight line candidates as candidates for the straight line, assigns, for each of the one or more straight line candidates, a score to the point cloud so that points in front of the straight line candidate at a specified distance or more are assigned with a score with a constant whose priority in selection is lower than the rest of points, and selects the straight line from the one or more straight line candidates based on a score accumulated value obtained by accumulating the score for the point cloud in the region presumed to include the front surface of the pallet.

    摘要: An industrial vehicle includes a vehicle body, a head guard provided in the upper portion of the vehicle body, and a lighting device provided on the head guard and illuminating a space in front of the vehicle body. The lighting device is provided with a light illuminating the space in front of the vehicle body and brackets removably attached to a pipe of the head guard. The light is attached to the bracket so as to be positioned below the pipe and positioned beside or behind a front pillar of the head guard.

    摘要: An engine exhaust system is accommodated in a counterweight portion without reducing either the efficiency of cooling by a radiator or the efficiency of purifying exhaust gas by an exhaust gas purification device. A body has a work device provided at the front and the counterweight portion at the rear. A ventilation path provided in the counterweight portion includes an elevated part formed between a bottom of a front portion and a bottom of a rear portion. The purification device and a muffler are disposed in the rear portion of the ventilation path so as to be positioned one above the other with the purification device lying above the muffler and having an upper portion protruding above the bottom of the front portion of the ventilation path. A windbreak plate made from a heat insulating material is disposed forward from the purification device so as to face the latter.

    摘要: A transport vehicle is provided, which is capable of adjusting a cargo loading position afterward even if a mobile shelf, a truck, or the like deviates from a predetermined position. The transport vehicle 1 includes: forks 16; a point group acquisition unit 22 that acquires a point group PG by horizontally irradiating a laser; and a distance specifying unit that specifies a distance in a left-right direction between the cargo loaded on the forks 16 and an object adjacent to a cargo loading position based on the acquired point group PG. The point group acquisition unit 22 is arranged at a position to be capable of irradiating the cargo loaded on the forks 16 and the cargo loading position with a laser.

    摘要: A remote operation system 1 includes: an image capturing device 20, provided at a forklift F; a head-mounted type image display device 10, mounted to a head of an operator O; a command reception device 11, receiving a remote operation command by the operator O; and a synthesized remote image generation device 12A, obtaining a content of the remote operation command received by the command reception device 11, an action state of the forklift F acting according to the remote operation command, and a remote image captured by the image capturing device 20, and generating a synthesized remote image by synthesizing a command display image indicating the content of the remote operation command and an action display image indicating the action state of the forklift F into the remote image. The head-mounted type image display device 10 displays the generated synthesized remote image before eyes of the operator O.
