Abstract: A back pad assembly for a material handling vehicle is provided that includes a back pad, a framework, and a mounting frame. The back pad includes a center portion, a first side portion, and a second side portion. The first side portion defines a first curved profile, and the second side portion defines a second curved profile. The first curved profile and the second curved profile are arranged on laterally-opposing sides of the center portion. The framework includes a first mounting bar and a second mounting bar. The framework is coupled to the back pad. The first and second mounting bars are adjustably supported by the mounting frame to enable the back pad to be selectively mounted at varying heights along the mounting frame.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide assistance to an operator of a material handling vehicle. A training reinforcement assistance device has a frame supporting an optical system, the optical system being configured to display virtual content on a display, and to enable viewing of at least a portion of a surrounding environment; an imager operably coupled with the frame; an accelerometer operably coupled with the frame and configured to detect an orientation of the frame; an eye-tracking unit operably coupled with the frame and configured to detect a viewing direction of an operator; and a controller operably coupled with the imager and the display. The controller receives environmental information from at least one of the imager, the accelerometer, or the eye-tracking unit and to overlay the image of the environment to assist the operator in maneuvering a material handling vehicle based on vehicle kinematics of the material handling vehicle.

Abstract: One or more material handling vehicles of a fleet can be equipped with telematics controllers and configured for wireless communication. In different arrangements, the material handling vehicles of the fleet can communicate with each other and with a management system, in order to effect management of the fleet and of particular material handling vehicles belonging thereto.

Abstract: Systems and methods include an integrated display having a graphical user interface that combines aspects of a telematic system with a vehicle control system. The integrated display combines a touch screen and a manual input keypad. Using both the touch screen's graphical user interface and the keypad, the integrated display can operate in multiple operation modes, including a touch mode where the operator controls the graphical user interface functions by touching predefined areas or tiles on the screen, and a keypad mode, where the operator controls the graphical user interface functions by touching keys on the manual input keypad. The integrated display can be controlled in a mixed mode operation, where the operator can control the graphical user interface functions using both the touch screen (touch mode) and the manual input keypad (keypad mode) to complete data entry processes, for example, and the integrated display can automatically transition between modes.
