Abstract: A materials handling vehicle including a power unit supported on wheels, and a mast assembly supported on the power unit. The mast assembly includes four or more telescoping sections defined by pairs of laterally spaced rails. An operator compartment is supported on the mast assembly for vertical movement relative to the mast assembly and includes a front wall defining a side of the operator compartment adjacent to the mast assembly. The laterally spaced rails have a height that is generally equal to the height of the front wall. A dash is located adjacent to the operator compartment.

Abstract: A materials handling vehicle including a mast assembly supported on a power unit. The mast assembly includes plural telescoping sections defined by pairs of laterally spaced rails. An operator compartment is supported on the mast assembly for vertical movement, and a dash is located forward of the operator compartment and includes a substantially horizontal support surface for packages. At least one control device is associated with the dash for operation by an operator standing on the operator compartment. A transparent window defines a portion of the horizontal support surface and provides the operator with a view of a floor surface when the operator compartment is in an elevated position such that the operator does not need to move his head outside the perimeter of the vehicle when looking down. When the mast assembly is in a collapsed position the mast assembly is no higher than the horizontal support surface.

Abstract: A mounting bar assembly mounted to a materials handling vehicle includes a mounting bar extending from a body portion of the materials handling vehicle, a housing mounted to the mounting bar and supporting at least one electronic device, and cabling that extends to the housing through a hollow interior portion defined within the mounting bar. The mounting bar assembly further includes cabling for providing communication between the at least one electronic device and control structure of the vehicle. The housing is mounted to the mounting bar such that the housing can be situated in a plurality of positions along at least a portion of the length of the mounting bar while the cabling is maintained within the hollow interior portion.

Abstract: A materials handling vehicle includes an operator platform from which an operator can drive the vehicle; a traction control system for advancing the vehicle across a floor surface; at least one sensor configured to detect the presence of an object located at a position proximate to the vehicle; and a controller communicably coupled to the at least one sensor and the traction control system. The controller is responsive to the output of the at least one sensor to stop or slow down the vehicle if an object is detected proximate to the vehicle and the vehicle is traveling in response to a remote travel request. However, the controller does not slow down or stop the vehicle if an object is proximate to the vehicle while the operator is driving the vehicle on the operator platform.

Abstract: A materials handling vehicle includes a frame defining a main structural component of the vehicle, a load handling assembly, and an operator's compartment provided within the frame. The operator's compartment includes a control module including structure for controlling at least one vehicle function. The control module may include a fin-shaped handhold element extending generally vertically upward from an upper surface defined by the upper surface. The fin-shaped handhold element may include structure for controlling at least one vehicle function. Further, a moveable palm rest may be provided to allow an operator to position their hand at a desired position relative to the control module.
