A machine localization system includes a work machine including an extendable implement, a first pressure sensor coupled to the work machine, a second pressure sensor located at a known elevation, and a computing system operably coupled to the work machine, the first pressure sensor, and the second pressure sensor. The computing system is configured to receive a first pressure measurement from the first pressure sensor and a second pressure measurement from the second pressure sensor, determine a maximum operating height of the extendable implement based on a difference between the first pressure measurement and the second pressure measurement, and configure the extendable implement to not exceed the maximum operating height.

The present disclosure discloses an automatic leveling control method for a four-leg support working platform, which comprises the steps: determining the mass center position of the working platform, determining the main bearing quadrant and distinguishing active legs from the driven leg; adjusting the driven leg to weak state, controlling all legs to synchronously actuate for leveling; calculating the limit compensating actuation length of the driven leg, and performing compensating actuation until accomplishing the leveling process. The method is advantageous in: high speed, high robustness, no repeated oscillation. The mass center always stays within the bearing zone of the active legs, thus completely eliminating capsizing risk of the working platform. The compensating actuation of the driven leg ensures there is no weak leg, and hence high attitude and load-bearing stability of the working platform is achieved.

Basket (1) comprising: a platform (7), a drive system (2) for moving the platform (7), a control desk (3) equipped with controls (4) of the system (2), a flexible safety link (5), two retaining systems (6) for keeping the link (5) in a position in which the link (5) extends across the platform (7), a detection device for detecting deformation of the link (5), having a detection member configured so that, under the effect of deformation of the link (5), it passes from a state referred to as inactive, in which operation of the controls (4) of the drive system (2) for moving the platform (7) is not disabled to a state referred to as active, in which said operation is disabled, one of the retaining systems (6) comprising a rotary member for winding the link (5) equipped with a return member for returning said rotary member in the direction of winding of the link (5) around said rotary member.

A person-lifting and fall-protection vehicle includes a carrier vehicle having a two-direction vehicle or a multi-direction vehicle, and a person-lifting device having a telescopic boom and a work cage.

A vehicle apparatus has a chassis with a plurality of rear wheels (e.g., flotation axel wheels) and a plurality of front wheels (e.g., drive/steer wheels) coupled thereto. A scissor lift assembly may couple to the chassis and hoist and lower a man basket. The man basket has hinged sides that may be released to a horizontal position, thereby extending the working platform of a user. A rotatable pedestal allows a central tie-off spot for added safety and efficacy.
