Abstract: The invention relates to an industrial truck (10; 15) comprising a truck body (20) and a load supporting member (30). The load supporting member (30) is movable in a vertical direction (40) and in a horizontal direction (50; 80) in relation to the truck body (20). According to the invention, the industrial truck (10; 15) is adapted to reduce the maximum allowed acceleration of the load supporting member (30) in the vertical direction (40) when the load supporting member is located at specific horizontal positions in relation to the truck body (20). The invention also pertains to a corresponding method and a computer program.

Abstract: Method for cleaning hydraulic liquid in a industrial truck, wherein said industrial truck is an electrically powered industrial truck having a battery as an energy source with a hydraulic system comprising, a hydraulic pump, a hydraulic reservoir, and a return pipe to the hydraulic reservoir with a return filter, wherein the method comprises the steps of, the hydraulic pump is activated for hydraulic activity, the hydraulic pump pumps the liquid for the hydraulic activity and in relation to this return flow through the return filter to the hydraulic reservoir occurs, the hydraulic pump can be activated by means comprised in the industrial truck, when hydraulic activity is not present, by that achieving a circulation to the hydraulic reservoir through the return filter such that sufficient filtration of the hydraulic liquid is reached, further a time Tb for circulation without hydraulic activity can be accumulated and/or a sensor for determining the quality of the hydraulic oil can be arranged in the industria

Abstract: A hydraulic cylinder assembly includes a cylinder and a piston rod. The cylinder has an opening and upper and lower inner walls formed by a bore. An end of the piston rod is received in the bore through the opening and travels reciprocally through the opening in response to volume change of a hydraulic fluid in the cylinder. The cylinder has a first section adjacent the opening provided with a narrow passage of the piston rod close to the cylinder upper inner wall. The cylinder has further a second section spaced apart from the opening and provided with a clearance between the piston rod and the lower inner wall forming a chamber for the hydraulic fluid. The inner upper wall at the first section is provided with circumferential camberings.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement and method for detecting failure of an electromechanical brake in an electromechanical drive system. The arrangement being characterized in that it comprises a control unit arranged to: send a drive torque signal to an electrical traction motor in the electromechanical drive system while the electromechanical brake is in an active braking position, detect if said applied drive torque causes a driving movement in the electrical traction motor, and indicate a mechanical failure of the electromechanical brake in case a driving movement in the electrical traction motor is caused by said applied drive torque. The invention further relates to a method for detecting failure of an electromechanical brake in an electromechanical drive system, and an industrial truck comprising the arrangement.
