UNIVERSAL COLLISION AVOIDANCE OVERRIDE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR OVERHEAD BRIDGE CRANES
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A universal collision avoidance override control system for an overhead bridge crane, comprising:
- an interface for operatively connecting said universal collision avoidance override control system to a collision avoidance system such that said universal collision avoidance override control system can communicate with the collision avoidance system, the collision avoidance system being operatively connected to the overhead bridge crane such that when the collision avoidance system detects an object in a safe zone the collision avoidance system stops the overhead bridge crane from moving toward the object; and
a logic circuit for overriding the collision avoidance system and for allowing the overhead bridge crane to move toward the object when said universal collision avoidance override control system receives an override signal, said logic circuit being operatively connected to said interface.
