Mobility base
A lift device includes a base, a retractable lift assembly, a coupler, an electro-mechanical device, and a battery pack. The base includes an electric drive and at least two rotatable wheels powered by the electric drive. The retractable lift assembly includes a first end coupled to the base and a second end that is movable relative to the base. The coupler is mounted to a first surface of the retractable lift assembly and includes at least one mounting stud, the at least one mounting stud extending outwardly away from the coupler. The electro-mechanical device is detachably coupled to the at least one mounting stud and is repositionable relative to the retractable lift assembly. The battery pack is electrically connected to the electric drive and the retractable lift assembly.
MOBILITY BASE
A lift device includes a base including a motor configured to drive the lift device, a retractable lift assembly having a first end coupled to the base and a second end that is movable relative to the base, a coupler attached to the retractable lift assembly, the coupler configured to detachably couple the retractable lift assembly to an electro-mechanical device, and a controller. The controller is configured to determine at least one of a load supported by the coupler or a position of the load based on at least one signal from one or more sensors and selectively restrict movement of the retractable lift assembly based on the load or the position of the load.
