Description
- The present invention relates to an industrial truck comprising a driver's compartment provided with controls for steering the truck and operate lifting means of the truck and security means for preventing operation of the controls if a driver is not present in the driver's compartment, said security means comprises a floor plate in the driver's compartment, which plate is movable between an upper and an lower position, a sensor emitting a signal indicating the position of the floor plate to a control unit in the truck, and a door element which is movable between an open and a closed state.
- It is known, in order to make it impossible for an industrial truck to be driven when a driver is outside the driver's compartment, to provide a floor plate in the floor of the driver's compartment, which must pushed down to make it possible to drive the truck. Such a solution functions well with regard to security but can lead to disturbances in the operation of the truck if the driver for some reason has to move around within the driver's compartment and then no longer can push the floor plate down. Furthermore, many drivers feel it to be uncomfortable and tiresome to always have to have a foot at the same spot on the floor of the driver's compartment when operating the truck and its lifting means.
EP 1657212 A2 discloses an industrial truck where sensors check that the driver has both his hands on control sticks and both feet in appropriate positions on the floor of the driver's compartment. - The objective of the present invention is to eliminate said drawbacks by providing an industrial truck allowing the driver to move freely within the driver's compartment during use of the truck.
- This objective is accomplished by an industrial truck comprising a driver's compartment provided with controls for operation of the truck and operation of lifting means of the truck and security means for preventing operation of truck and lifting means if a driver is not present in the driver's compartment, said security means comprises a floor plate in the driver's compartment, which plate is movable between an upper and an lower position, a sensor for sensing the position of the floor plate, said sensor emitting a signal indicating the position of the floor plate to a control unit in the truck, and a door element which is movable between an open and a closed state, characterized by a sensor for sensing the state of the door element, which sensor emits a signal to the control unit indicative of the state of the door element, and in that the control unit is arranged to only allow activation of the truck, i.e. permit operation of drive means, steering means and lifting means, when the floor plate is in its lower position and the door element is in a closed state and arranged to after activation permit operation of truck and lifting means when the door element is in a closed state independent of the position of the floor plate, and arranged to interrupt the operation of the truck if the door element is opened, whereby the operation of the truck can not be resumed until after a reactivation of the truck. By the fact that the floor plate must be pushed down when activating the truck, the truck can not be activated if the driver is not present in the driver's compartment, and by the fact that the door element must be in closed state during use of the truck, it is ensured that the driver can not leave the driver's compartment without the truck being inactivated. By such a security arrangement, a driver can after activation be allowed to move freely within the driver's compartment without reduction of the security.
- By "activation of the truck" is meant that operation of drive means, steering means and lifting means is permitted by the control unit.
- In a preferred embodiment, the floor plate is spring biased towards its upper position. The door element can be a gate, bars, a swinging door, a sliding door or the like, and the driver's compartment can be constituted by a vertically adjustable driver's cab.
- The above mentioned sensors can in their simplest form consist of electrical switches.
- The invention will now be described with reference to the enclosed figures, of which;
-
fig. 1 schematically discloses a side view of an industrial truck according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, and -
fig. 2 discloses a schematic principal diagram of the drive system of the truck infigure 1 . - In
Figure 1 , anindustrial truck 1 according to a preferred embodiment of the invention is schematically disclosed. Thetruck 1 comprises abottom plate 2, which carries two front wheels 3 and arear wheel 4 that is drivable and steerable, a housing 5, which contains battery, drive motor, transmission and control motor for driving of the truck and a hydraulic system for operation of the lifting means of the truck. The housing 5 also contains a control unit for controlling the functions of the truck. Thebottom plate 2 also carries a lifting frame 6, along which a driver's cab 7 and liftingforks 8 are moveable by the hydraulic system of the truck. Aswingable gate 9 gives access to the driver's cab 7. In the driver's cab 7controls 10 are provided for driving of the truck and movement of the driver's cab and lifting forks. The up to now described structure of thetruck 1 is conventional and the included components are also known per se. - To prevent the possibility of driving the truck when a driver is not present in the driver's cab 7, for example driven by a driver standing on the
lifting forks 8, it is known to provide a floor plate being swingable upwards and downwards and being coupled to a sensor, which senses when the floor plate is swung down and then emits a signal to the control unit, which then permits driving of the truck and operation of the lifting forks. By such an arrangement it is accomplished that the truck can only be used when a driver is present in the driver's cab. It has, however, been proved that the driver sometimes has to move within the driver's cab, e.g. for changing his field of vision, which has lead to operational disturbances if this movement caused the driver to no longer stand on the floor plate. Furthermore, many drivers experience it tiresome and uncomfortable not to have a possibility to change posture. According to the invention this problem is solved by a security arrangement which is schematically shown infigure 2 . - In
figure 2 the security arrangement according to the invention is shown very schematically. To thecontrol unit 11 leads acircuit 12, in which anelectrical switch 14 acted upon by thefloor plate 13 is a part. A push down of thefloor plate 13 causes theswitch 14 to be pushed down and close thecircuit 12. Theswitch 14 and thefloor plate 13 are both spring biased towards an upper position which means that when a driver no longer stands on thefloor plate 13, thecircuit 12 is broken. Asimilar circuit 15 having anelectrical switch 16 is in the same way coupled to the closing and opening movements of thegate 9. - As is schematically shown in
figure 2 , thecontrol unit 11 is coupled to theoperational controls 10 and receives commands from these controls. These commands is transferred to the drivable andsteerable wheel 4 and to the lifting means for theforks 8, respectively if the conditions for operation of the truck associated tocircuits - The
control unit 11, which can be a computer or the like, is arranged or programmed so that the truck only can be activated whencircuits floor plate 13 is pushed down at the same time as thegate 9 is closed. The control unit is furthermore arranged so that driving of the truck and operation of thelifting forks 8 only can occur when the gate is closed. Thus, the state of the floor plate influences only the actual activation of the truck. - By such an arrangement, a driver has to be present within the driver's cab 7 and push the floor plate down when activating the
truck 1. At the same time, thegate 9 must be closed. After the activating the driver can freely move around in the driver's cab without affecting the possibility to operate the truck or the lifting forks, which has the consequence that it will be less tiresome to operate the truck than if the driver had to stay put on the same spot during operation of the truck. Any operational disturbances due to movements of the driver within the driver's cab will thus not occur in an arrangement according to the invention. The arrangement according to the invention will not lower the security. If the driver leaves the driver's cab, thegate 9 opens, which causes interruption of the operation of the truck which operation can not be resumed until after a reactivation of the truck. The control unit can also be arranged to automatically apply a brake when the truck is un-activated by opening of thegate 9 if this is not already done. - The described embodiment can of course be modified within the scope of the invention. The
switch 16 could for example be arranged to break the current incircuit 15 when thegate 9 is closed. Furthermore, other types of position indicators than simple electrical switches, e.g. inductive sensors, can be used. The driver's cab can have two gates, one at each side thereof, each having a sensor coupled to the control unit. The invention can also be applied to other types of trucks having a fixed or movable driver's cab, which can be closed by one or two door elements that can be constituted by gates, bars, sliding doors or swinging doors. Such trucks can also have other types of drive and steering systems, e.g. a four wheel systems or articulated steering systems. The lifting frame can be longitudinally displaceable. The invention shall therefore only be limited by the wording of the enclosed patent claims.
