Abstract

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Bedienpult für ein Flurförderzeug, insbesondere für einen Hochregalstapler oder einen Hochregalkommissionierer, mit mindestens einem Bedienelement (1) zur Steuerung einer Lasthandhabungsfunktion des Flurförderzeugs. Erfindungsgemäß ist das mindestens eine Bedienelement (1) als Daumenjoystick ausgeführt, derart, dass das Bedienelement (1) von einer Bedienperson mit dem Daumen um mindestens eine Achse schwenkbar ist. Vorzugsweise ist das Bedienelement (1) von der Bedienperson mit dem Daumen um mindestens zwei Achsen (10, 11) schwenkbar. Das Bedienelement (1) weist eine konkave Auflagefläche (1a) für den Daumen einer Hand der Bedienperson auf. Weiter weist die Auflagefläche (1a) an ihren Rändern Erhöhungen (1b) auf, die derart angeordnet sind, dass jede Erhöhung (1b) eine mögliche Richtung für die Schwenkbewegung des Bedienelements (1) um genau eine Achse (10 bzw. 11) kennzeichnet.

The invention relates to a control panel for an industrial truck, in particular for a high-bay stacker or a high-level order picker, with at least one control element (1) for controlling a load handling function of the truck. According to the invention, the at least one operating element (1) is designed as a thumb joystick, such that the operating element (1) can be pivoted by an operator with the thumb about at least one axis. Preferably, the operating element (1) is pivotable by the operator with the thumb about at least two axes (10, 11). The operating element (1) has a concave bearing surface (1a) for the thumb of a hand of the operator. Furthermore, the bearing surface (1a) has at its edges elevations (1b) which are arranged such that each elevation (1b) indicates a possible direction for the pivotal movement of the operating element (1) about exactly one axis (10 or 11).
