WORK VEHICLE
20220001844 · 2022-01-06 ·

A crane vehicle capable of preventing another vehicle from coming into contact with a tip end portion of a boom when entering an intersection includes a controller that detects an obstacle on a lateral side of a tip end portion of a boom by using left and right cameras when the vehicle enters an intersection or the like. When it is determined that a detected obstacle may come into contact with the tip end portion of the boom, the controller drives a brake device to stop a crane vehicle, and causes a speaker to output a warning sound. When it is determined that there is no risk of contact with the boom as the detected obstacle stops, or moves away from the crane vehicle by turning left or right, or passing an intersection, the controller releases the driving of the brake device to enable travelling of the crane vehicle.

PRECISE PARKING METHOD, APPARATUS AND SYSTEM OF TRUCK IN SHORE-BASED CRANE AREA
20210327271 · 2021-10-21 ·

The present disclosure provides a method, a device, and a system for parking a truck. The method includes a main controller acquiring real-time point cloud data by scanning a lane crossed by a shore crane using a laser radar; the main controller clustering the real-time point cloud data to obtain a set of point clouds for the truck moving in the lane; and the main controller obtaining a real-time distance from the moving truck to a target parking space based on the set of point clouds and a vehicle point cloud model; the main controller broadcasting a message containing the real-time distance, such that a vehicle controller controls the moving truck to stop at the target parking space based on the real-time distance contained in the message.

Construction machine, in particular a crane, and method for the control thereof
11119467 · 2021-09-14 · ·

A construction machine, in particular in the form of a crane such as a revolving tower crane, having a control apparatus for controlling at least one piece of work equipment of the construction machine using a structure data model that includes digital information on a structure to be erected and/or to be worked. A method of controlling such a construction machine with the aid of digital data from such a structure data model. The construction machine has a data exchange module connectable to the master construction site computer for the exchange of digital data with a master construction site computer, with the data exchange module having reading and/or writing means for reading and/or writing access to the master construction site computer. The construction machine carries out at least individual work steps such as the traveling of a construction element in automated manner using digital data from the master construction site computer. A control module that can be positioned at the load suspension means and/or at the construction element to be traveled and that can be configured as a wearable, in particular in the form of gloves having integrated movement control sensors is provided for the fine positioning.

Method And Apparatus For Automating Power Take-Offs For Vehicles and Equipment
20200398845 · 2020-12-24 ·

A system and method of this disclosure control an on/off state of a power take-off by monitoring the power demand of a fluid power circuit that includes the power take-off and a piece of equipment connected to the power take-off. The power demand may be indicated by a pressure or temperature of a fluid power circuit, by a motion of the equipment or its hand-held controller, or by an engine torque of an engine driving the power take-off. When the equipment transitions between an off state and an on state, the controller automatically engages the power take-off. When the equipment is in the on-state for a predetermined amount of time and the power demand is at or below a predetermined threshold during the predetermined amount of timethereby indicating idle time or an inactive state of the equipmentthe controller automatically disengages the power take-off.
