SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INSTALLING INSULATED METAL PANELS
An insulated metal panel (IMP) assembly system includes a panel assembly table and a boom IMP attachment. The panel assembly table allows for assembly of a panel module at ground level. The boom IMP attachment features a quick-coupler couplable to the boom of a telehandler, a swivel coupler column, one or more tilt linear actuators configured to tilt the orientation of a panel module, and one or more hydraulic rotation linear actuators configured to rotate the orientation of the panel module. The boom IMP attachment also includes a jib frame, a plurality of jib arms spanning outwards from the jib frame, and one or more clamp header rails having a plurality of clamp assemblies, each configured to grip a frame member of the panel frame of the panel module. The boom IMP attachment may hoist, tilt, and rotate the panel module.
Lateral stability system
A lateral stability system for a telescopic handler (1), whose telescopic boom (11) is fitted with equipment (12) suitable for lateral translation of a load (10), comprising a processing unit which includes at least a first enabling module, configured to enable or inhibit movements of said boom (11), according to one or more safety parameters. The system comprises first sensing means for determining the position of the load (10) relative to a center plane (M) of said equipment (12), connected to the processing unit, wherein a first safety parameter is a function of a value of an imbalance signal produced by the first sensing means.
Leveling system for lift device
A lift machine includes a base having a first end and a second end, a first assembly, and a second assembly. The first end has first and second pivot points defining a first lateral axis. The second end has third and fourth pivot points defining a second lateral axis. The first assembly is pivotably coupled to the first and second pivot points. The first assembly extends away from the base in a first direction such that first and second tractive elements are longitudinally offset from the first lateral axis and spaced from the first end of the base. The second assembly is pivotably coupled to the third and fourth pivot points. The second assembly extends away from the base in a second direction such that third and fourth tractive elements are longitudinally offset from the second lateral axis and spaced from the second end of the base.
Telehandler with control system
The self-propelled operating machine (1) is equipped with movable elements (10, 11, 13) which include a lifting arm (10) having an apparatus (13) and equipped with a plurality of actuators (20, 21, 22, 23) designed to actuate movements of the moving elements (10, 11, 13). The machine comprises a control system which includes a processing unit (3) which comprises a control module (31) configured for producing control signals designed for adjusting the operation of the actuators (20, 21, 22, 23) on the basis of one or more spatial limiting parameters. One or more of the limiting parameters is a function of spatial constraints for the movements of the above-mentioned elements.
Lift truck equipped with stabilizer means
A lift truck comprises a chassis (1) movable on wheels (2) and a rotating platform (3) which supports an operating arm (4); stabilizing means are provided for resting on the ground and positioned at the front as well as at the back. The stabilizing means consist of two pairs of two telescopically extensible arms (5), each one comprising a first segment (6) and a second segment (7). The arms (5) have their ends hinged to opposite sides of the chassis (1), so as to swivel about parallel axes, and have the opposite free ends intended to lean against the ground by means of plates or stabilizing feet (8). The two arms (5) of each pair are arranged side by side at a short distance from each other on parallel planes and are individually bound to the chassis (1) by means of hydraulic cylinders (11). Control means are provided to control at least the return movements of each pair of arms (5) to a folded, contracted configuration, according to a predetermined sequence which provides that, for each single arm (5), full retraction of a respective second segment (7), at least for a predetermined portion of the final part of its return stroke, is carried out only after that the first segment (6) of the other arm (5), belonging to the same said pair of arms (5), has reached a final folding position.
