  • the user-side interface of the remote server can be obtained through different devices, for example through web services in html or via SMS (through a mobile telephone.
  • the Italian patent application no. PR2005A000027 describes a board for managing and controlling an industrial vehicle, such as for example a lift truck provided with power supply battery, and a related method of operation.
  • This management board comprises sensor means, an electronic memory, processing means and means for enabling/disabling the functionalities of the vehicle and a telephone modem for the remote operation of the vehicle.
  • the main disadvantage of this electronic board is that the communication of the telephone modem for the remote management of the vehicle can be compromised because of the geographic characteristics of the workplace (for example because of mountains or even of building walls or other obstacles); therefore, a single vehicle may remain isolated for a long time without the ability to communicate with the remote user.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a management system with client/server architecture for at least one self-propelled pool of devices that is more efficient and at the same time more economical and simple to construct and use, thus overcoming or reducing at least some of the aforesaid disadvantages of the existing systems.

  • the mesh-type local network is of the dynamic type, i.e. it is possible to insert new devices in the pool to be controlled, up to a predetermined maximum number.
  • the dynamic mesh-type local network LAN is obtained by means of a radio link proprietary protocol. Therefore, the data or commands of each device are transmitted when a device enters the range of the radio link of at least one other device or of the base, after verification of the update of the data / commands so that only updated data / commands are transmitted.
  • a radio link communication is a radio frequency communication able to transmit appropriately encoded information remotely.
  • the capacity available to the transmission depends on the radio spectrum, i.e. on the frequency interval or radio channel, and on the complexity of the modulation used.
  • frequency intervals which can be generally used for radio links, they range from a few MHz to tens of GHz.
  • modulation it is possible to distinguish a modulation of analogue type in amplitude (AM) or in frequency (FM) or in phase (PM) and a modulation of digital type in amplitude (ASK) or in shift of frequency (FSK) or of phase (PSK).

  • GSM Global System for Mobile communications
  • a different type of WAN geographic communication network may be used, for example UMTS or Satellite or yet other types.
  • the devices to be managed are vehicles, such as for example watercraft, transport vehicles, self-propelled vehicles for special uses or industrial vehicles such as lift trucks and earth moving machines or yet others.
  • the devices to manage are mechanical-electrical devices or loggers associable to each vehicle, for example batteries, electric motors, special uprights, pneumatic hammers, meteorological sensors or others.
  • the industrial lift trucks comprise electric motor, stably fastened on each lift truck and replaceable or invertible batteries which are particularly expensive to purchase and maintain.
  • a local communication network is advantageously provided between the motors and between the batteries of each lift truck (and possibly between other devices implemented on each lift truck) and at least one base, see below.
