First Claim
1. A device for servicing and/or inspection of a material handling system, wherein the device is adapted to be moved along a track of the material handling system and adapted for servicing and/or inspection of the material handling system or components thereof positioned on or adjacent to the track and adapted to be controlled via a user interface, and wherein the device comprises:
- at least one displaceable section, which is displaceable between a first and a second position on the device, whereinsaid section in the first position prevents a person carried on the device from manually accessing an area of the material handling system with parts of the material handling system which are moving relatively to the device during movement of the device or during operation of the material handling system, and wherein said section positioned in the second position enables the person to access parts of the material handling system which are moving relatively to the device during movement of the device or during operation of the material handling system.

Abstract
A device 202 for servicing and/or inspection of a material handling system 204 is disclosed, which device provides safer, less time consuming and less difficult service and/or inspection of the material handling system 204 than other devices. The device 202 is adapted to be moved along a track 214 of the material handling system and adapted for servicing and/or inspection of the material handling system or components thereof positioned on or adjacent to the track 214. The device includes at least one section, such as a hatch and/or a sliding bearing surface 216, 602, 706, 708, 710, 902, 1002, displaceable between a first and a second position, where the section positioned in the second position is enabling a person of accessing parts of the material handling system which are moving relatively to the device during movement of the device or during operation of the material handling system.

47. A method of servicing and/or providing inspection of a material handling system, the method comprising:
-
enabling movement of a device comprising at least one displaceable section along a track of the material handling system, servicing and/or providing inspection of the material handling system or components thereof positioned on or adjacent to the track from the device, controlling operation of the device via a control system enabling control of the device, wherein the method further comprises; inputting control signals to the control system in order to start, stop, adjust transportation speed or for initiating, stopping or controlling an automated servicing procedure as manually inputted requests or as automatically generated requests as automatically generated control signals, displacing said section from a first to a second position on the device, where said section in the first position is preventing a person on the device from manually accessing an area of the material handling system with parts of the material handling system which are moving relatively to the device during movement of the device or during operation of the material handling system, and where said section positioned in the second position is enabling the person of accessing said parts, and carrying out manual service of the material handling system when said section is positioned in said second position. - View Dependent Claims (48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55)
