    摘要: The invention relates to a module with a housing for fastening in particular to a fork carriage of an industrial truck. Within the housing 110, a mounting bracket 130 is mounted for holding at least one functional unit 120. According to the invention, an alternative design for the mounting bracket is proposed in order to be able to position the mounting bracket with the functional unit in different degrees of freedom within the housing. For this purpose, the present invention provides that in addition to the fastening screws 134, with which the mounting bracket is screwed from the inside to the housing wall 112 110, adjusting screws are also provided in order to be able to adjust the distance between the mounting bracket 130 and the housing wall 112 110 at specific points and thus also to variably adjust the different degrees of freedom.

    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: The present application discloses a pallet truck for transporting window-shaped pallets, comprising a forklift body, a fork arm assembly and two load-bearing wheels. The fork arm assembly is movably arranged on the forklift body. The fork arm assembly has a movement stroke that moves up and down relative to the forklift body. The fork arm assembly comprises two fork arms spaced apart along a width direction of the forklift body. The two load-bearing wheels are respectively movably arranged on each fork arm. In an up and down direction, the load-bearing wheels have a movement stroke close to and away from the fork arms.

    摘要: The present disclosure is an autonomous robotic cargo system for moving and accurately positioning cargo inside an aircraft or at any other designated location in an austere environment. The system has a chassis coupled to one or more tracks for moving the chassis from a first location to a second location. The chassis is also coupled to one or more forks for loading cargo and unloading the cargo. In addition, the chassis has a laser scanner positioned on the chassis to capture data indicative of the chassis' environment. The system further has a control processor that pre-generates a preliminary pathway for the chassis to travel from the first location to the second location based upon laser scanner data received from the laser scanner. The control processor also controls the one or more forks to pick up cargo and controls the one or more tracks to move the cargo from the first location to the second location.

    摘要: Motorized vehicles that include a mast, a carriage supported by the mast, a hydraulic cylinder configured to raise and lower the carriage along the mast, forks or a platform coupled to the carriage and configured to support a load wherein raising and lowering the carriage raises and lowers the forks or the platform and thereby raises and lowers the load supported thereon, a system of sensors configured to gather data relating to objects in proximity to the motorized vehicle including at least two cameras configured to obtain video of at least two areas around the motorized vehicle, and one or more display screens configured to visually display the data gathered by the system of sensors or information based thereon to an operator including real-time video obtained by the cameras. Methods are provided for operating the vehicles with improved operator visibility and situational awareness relative to pre-existing vehicles.
