Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable safety operation even when the wheels idle or slip by employing the higher one of the speed signals of a drive wheel and an idle wheel arranged on the vehicle body as a current speed signal. CONSTITUTION:Wheels 32a, 32b and an idle wheel 32c are arranged on a vehicle body 30. The wheel 32a is driven through a motor 34. Speed detectors 36a, 36b are fixed respectively to the idle wheel 32c and the wheel 32a. A high value priority circuit 39 selects the higher one of the output signals from the speed detectors 36a, 36b and outputs the selected one. A comparator circuit 40 provides the differential signal between the output from the high value priority circuit 39 and a speed set signal from a speed setter 41 to a control circuit 42. By such arrangement, the vehicle body can be operated safely even when the drive wheel idles or slips.

(Prior Art) Vehicles, particularly industrial vehicles, are used in factories and logistics facilities to transport parts from warehouses to assembly sites, or from assembly sites to products to transportation locations. For this reason, this vehicle needs to travel in a predetermined location accurately at a predetermined speed. As a speed control device for such a vehicle, a device as shown in FIG. 2 is used.

The lever body 12 of the vehicle is provided with an electric motor 13 energized by a power source (not shown), which drives the wheels 11a via a reduction gear 14. This wheel 11a is generally called a driving wheel.

In such a vehicle, a speed detector 17 is provided in the transport 16 to detect the speed of the vehicle body 12. This speed detector 17 extracts the rotational speed of the transport 16 as a pulse signal and supplies this signal to a speed calculation circuit 18 which converts it into a running speed. The speed signal converted by this speed calculation circuit 18 is applied to a speed comparator 19. This speed comparator 19 receives the speed set value of the speed setter 20 and compares it with the speed signal, and when the speed signal exceeds the speed set value, outputs an overspeed signal to the control circuit 21, and outputs an overspeed signal to the control circuit 21.
The electric motor 13 is controlled so that the speed becomes the speed set by the speed setting device 20, and the vehicle body 12 is driven at a predetermined speed.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) If the speed of the vehicle body 12 is detected by such a method, it can be detected almost accurately and the vehicle body 12 can be controlled to a desired speed. However, for some reason, the driving wheel 11a is connected to the rail 10.
If slippage occurs between the wheels 11a and 16, an error will occur between the rotational speed applied to the driving wheels 11a and the rotational speed detected from the transport 16. For example, when the driving wheels 11a are idling, the transportation 16 detects a rotational speed lower than the rotational speed applied to the driving wheels 11a, so the control circuit 21 controls the electric motor 13 to increase the speed. In this state, idling is encouraged and will not be released. Furthermore, if the driving wheel 11a slips, the control circuit 21 further applies a braking force to the electric motor 13 to slow it down, since the transportation 16 detects a rotational speed higher than the rotational speed applied to the driving wheel 11a. Therefore, the sliding state is never released, and in any case, there is a drawback that smooth running is impossible.
