  • Patent number: 9334881
    Abstract: A forklift (1) according to the present invention includes: an engine (7); a hydraulically-operated device for cargo handling (2); a pump for cargo handling (5) that is driven by the engine (7); hydraulic piping for cargo handling (8) that connects the pump for cargo handling (5) and the hydraulically-operated device for cargo handling (2); discharge piping (110) that branches from the hydraulic piping for cargo handling (8) and is connected to a tank (4); a switching valve (111) capable of switching the opening and closing of the discharge piping (110); a control device (13) that closes the discharge piping (110) when the rotation speed of the engine (7) is larger than a predetermined value, and opens the discharge piping (110) when the rotation speed of the engine (7) is less than or equal to a predetermined value; and a sub-relief valve (112) that adjusts the flow rate of hydraulic oil that is discharged from the discharge piping (110) to the tank (4), on the bases of the pressure or the flow rate of the h

  • Publication number: 20120303225
    Abstract: An industrial vehicle 1 includes a brake 5 that applies a driving force or a braking force to a vehicle body 22, a lift pressure sensor 632 that detects pitching vibration of a vehicle body, and a pitching control unit 62 that calculates a pitching control torque for suppressing pitching vibration and generates a pitching control signal for causing the brake 5 to output the pitching control torque. When the industrial vehicle 1 runs under a load, the pitching control unit 62 calculates the pitching control torque based on an output value from the lift pressure sensor 632 to output the pitching control signal. The brake 5 is then driven based on the pitching control signal.

  • Patent number: 7278508
    Abstract: A control system of an industrial truck includes a first switch, a second switch and a hydraulic circuit. The first switch detects whether an operator sits on a seat, and carries out a first operation based on the result. The second switch detects whether a device for operating an actuator is operated, and carries out a second operation based on the result. The hydraulic circuit is used for operating the actuator. It a control valve, a first circulating line, a hydraulic line and a drive lock valve. The control valve includes a spool whose position is changed by the device. The first circulating line includes the control valve, through which the hydraulic fluid circulates. The hydraulic line connects the spool with the actuator. The drive lock valve is provided for the hydraulic line and blocks the hydraulic line, based on the first operation and/or the second operation.

  • Publication number: 20040261609
    Abstract: A control system of an industrial truck includes a first switch, a second switch and a hydraulic circuit. The first switch detects whether an operator sits down on a seat, and carries out a first operation based on the detecting result. The second switch detects whether a device for operating an actuator is operated, and carries out a second operation based on the detecting result. The hydraulic circuit is used for operating of the actuator. The hydraulic circuit includes: a control valve, a first circulating line, a hydraulic line and a drive lock valve. The control valve includes a spool that position is changed by the device. The first circulating line includes the control valve, through which the hydraulic fluid circulates. The hydraulic line connects the spool with the actuator, through which the hydraulic fluid passes. The drive lock valve is provided for the hydraulic line, and blocks the hydraulic line, based on the first operation and/or the second operation.

  • Patent number: 5386081
    Abstract: Automatic performance data for plural music pieces is stored in a memory. An order setting circuit for setting the order of automatically performing these music pieces is provided. The automatic performance data is read out in accordance with the order of performance set by the order setting circuit, whereby the plural music pieces are successively performed. By operating an instruction switch during performance of a certain music piece, a control is made in response to this instruction to stop the performance of the music piece which is being played and shift to performance of a next music piece in accordance with the set order of performance. The music which is being played may be stopped at a position at which the pattern, measure or other predetermined performance section ends. The order of performance may be previously determined or may be set at random.
