A forklift includes a cabin and a seat for use by a driver arranged in the cabin. The cabin has a lateral opening to enter and exit the cabin, and the seat is mounted rotatably relative to the cabin. There is a safety bracket for preventing the driver from involuntarily exiting the cabin through the lateral opening, and for providing lateral impact protection. The safety bracket is mechanically connected to the seat to be rotatable together with the seat.

The present invention describes an anti-collision system (1) for ground vehicles, comprising a first transceiver device (4), associated with an obstacle (B), configured to generate and transmit one or more wireless signals (SG_B_i), at pre-established time intervals, the first wireless signal (SG_B_1) carrying an obstacle identification code (ID_1); a second transceiver device (3), associated with a ground vehicle (A), configured to transmit one or more wireless signals (SG_A_i) and to receive said one or more wireless signals (SG_B_i) comprising said first wireless signal (SG_B_1) carrying the obstacle identification code (ID_1); a processing unit (20) configured to process collision data of said vehicle (A) comprising: a first calculation module (21) configured to determine the trajectory (D_TRJ) of the ground vehicle (A) and the obstacle (B) as a function of said wireless signals (SG_B_i) and said wireless signals (SG_A_i); a second calculation module (23) configured to determine on the basis of said trajectory (D_TRJ) the probability of collision between the ground vehicle (A) and the obstacle (B); an alerting module (24) configured to generate and send a signal of probability of collision (S_COLL) between the ground vehicle (A) and the obstacle (B) as a function of a high probability of collision between said ground vehicle (A) and the obstacle (B). The invention further describes a corresponding method and computer program.

A restraint system for a driver of a vehicle comprises at least one protective bar (6), being supported on at least one pillar (2). To achieve an alignment, at least one protective bar (6) is pivotably supported by at least one eccentric (8). The protective bar is lockable.

Systems and methods for operation of a floor conveyor, the floor conveyor including a sensor device, the systems and methods include providing a predetermined detection zone outside at least a section of the circumference of the floor conveyor for detection of foreign objects positioned inside the predetermined detection zone, wherein the predetermined detection zone is arranged to end at a first predetermined distance from a predetermined object. The method further comprises extending the predetermined detection zone with a second predetermined distance within which the predetermined object is expected to be positioned. The method further comprises implementing security measures on the floor conveyor, if the predetermined object is not detected within the extended predetermined detection zone.

A restraint system for a driver of a vehicle comprises at least one protective bar (6), being supported on at least one pillar (2). To achieve an alignment, said at least on protective bar (6) is pivotably supported by means of at least on eccentric (8). The pivotability is lockable by at least one retaining means (11).

A work vehicle includes a frame assembly and an attachment assembly. The attachment assembly has an attachment end pivotally connected to the frame assembly and a distal end configured for receiving a variable load. At least one force sensor senses at least one force associated with the attachment end. The at least one force sensor provides an output signal representing the sensed at least one force. An inclination sensor senses an inclination associated with the frame assembly and provides an output signal representing the sensed inclination. An electrical processing circuit is configured for receiving the output signal from the at least one force sensor, determining a value of a couple at the frame assembly which is associated with the sensed at least one force, comparing the couple with a threshold value which is dependent on the sensed inclination, and controlling the controllable output dependent on the comparison.
