Abstract: A vehicle includes a chassis, a bed assembly, and a light assembly. The chassis includes a frame member that defines a longitudinal direction. The bed assembly includes a deck coupled to the frame member and moveable between a transport position and a loading position. The light assembly includes a housing, a marker light coupled to the housing and positioned to deliver light across the longitudinal direction, and an indicator light coupled to the housing and positioned to deliver light in the longitudinal direction. The light assembly is coupled to the bed assembly to improve lateral and longitudinal visibility of the vehicle when the deck is in the transport position and the loading position.

Abstract: An adjustable headboard for a carrier vehicle includes a hoop with a first frame member having a proximal end and a distal end, a second frame member having a proximal end and a distal end, and a connecting member extending between the distal end of the first frame member and the distal end of the second frame member. The hoop is moveable between a first position and a second position. The adjustable headboard further includes a stationary base with a first receiving channel and a second receiving channel and a retainer coupled to the hoop to secure the hoop in the first position and the second position.

Abstract: An obstruction sensing system is provided for a lift vehicle (10) with a lift platform (20). The system includes a plurality of sensors (32) mounted to the lift platform (20) and a control system (18) coupled with a drive system of the lift vehicle. The sensors collectively detect a profile of an area on a sensor side of the platform, and the control system generates a signal according to the profile detected by the plurality of sensors. The profile detected by the sensors may be compared with a stored plurality of area profiles by the control system based on a position of the lift platform or profiles of substantially symmetrical areas may be compared. If an obstruction is sensed during platform descent, further descent is halted and an alarm is sounded. The system also includes structure for overriding the disabling function.
