Definitions

  • the method is preferably used in connection with industrial trucks in which particularly high demands are placed on the availability of the remote control units.
  • a 1: 1 connection is provided between the remote control unit and the industrial truck. This uniqueness ensures that only a single remote control unit can issue commands from a distance to exactly one industrial truck. It is customary for the remote control units to use battery-operated control units that have to be charged for use of the industrial truck. Changing the assignment of remote control units to a transmitting and receiving unit of an industrial truck can be technically complex.
  • a system in which a vehicle can be controlled via a portable machine and a portable terminal.
  • the portable machine works here as a vehicle-specific key that can receive commands from the portable terminal and forward them to the vehicle.
  • the coupling between the portable machine and the portable terminal takes place directly via an NFC coupling between these devices.
  • the invention is based on the object of providing a method for coupling a second remote control that can be used easily and flexibly.
  • the method according to the invention provides for a second remote control unit to be coupled to a first remote control unit.
  • the first remote control unit is designed for a radio connection with a transmitting and receiving unit, as can be provided, for example, in an industrial truck.
  • the method according to the invention provides for a coupling of the first remote control unit to the transmitting and receiving unit for a radio link in front. After coupling the first remote control unit, signals, data and information can be exchanged between the first remote control unit and the transmitting and receiving unit by radio.
  • a unique address of the second remote control unit is transmitted to the transmitting and receiving unit via near-field communication.
  • the transmitting and receiving unit sends the unique address of the second remote control unit to the first remote control unit.
  • the coupling of the first remote control unit with the second remote control unit takes place via the sent unique address of the second remote control unit.
  • the second remote control unit transmits its unique address to the transmitting and receiving unit, which sends the unique address of the second remote control unit to the first remote control unit, so that the first remote control unit is coupled to the second remote control unit.
  • a command is sent from the second remote control unit to the transmitting and receiving unit of the industrial truck, the command being sent from the second remote control unit to the first remote control unit, which transmits the command via radio to the transmitting and receiving unit Receiving unit forwards.
  • the particular advantage of the method according to the invention is that the 1: 1 connection between the industrial truck and its transmitting and receiving unit with the first remote control unit remains.
  • the second remote control unit is coupled to the transmitting and receiving unit of the industrial truck via the first remote control unit.
  • the first remote control unit is fed by a battery or an accumulator.
  • the first remote control unit can be fed with its own energy supply for the intended operation.
  • the second remote control unit is equipped with an operating element which, when actuated, generates sufficient current for sending the command. Due to its structure without a battery or an accumulator as an energy store, the second remote control unit is not designed to permanently maintain a radio connection with the transmitter and receiver unit in the industrial truck. The current required for sending a signal or a command from the second remote control unit to the first remote control unit is generated by actuating the control element.
  • the first and second remote control units each have a module for near-field communication with the transmitting and receiving unit.
  • the module for near-field communication can be designed to be active with its own power supply or passive. In the case of passive training, the energy from the transmitter and receiver unit is transmitted to the module for near-field communication.
  • the first remote control unit couples with the transmitter and receiver unit via near-field communication, the first remote control unit sending its unique address to the transmitter and receiver unit.
  • the transmitting and receiving unit can assign the two unique addresses of the radio remote control units to one another in order to allow the signals from the first remote control unit to be passed on to the second remote control unit, with for this purpose, the unique address of the second remote control unit is forwarded to the first remote control unit.
  • the first remote control unit cancels the coupling with the second remote control unit if the first remote control unit had no radio connection with the transmitting and receiving unit for a predetermined period of time or the transmitting and receiving unit was switched off.
  • the first remote control unit deletes, for example, the unique address of the second remote control unit in its memory, so that communication is no longer possible in which commands from the second remote control unit are passed on to the transmitting and receiving unit of the industrial truck via the first remote control unit.
  • Fig. 1 shows an industrial truck 10, which is designed here as an example of a ride-on drawbar lift truck.
  • the vehicle 10 has a transmitting and receiving unit 12 which is designed, on the one hand, to communicate by radio over distances of a few meters and, on the other hand, to read out a unique address with the aid of near-field communication.
  • the transmitting and receiving unit 12 is also designed to have at least two one-to-one Record, save and assign addresses to each other.
  • the one-to-one addresses are, for example, so-called MAC addresses, where MAC stands for Media Access Control and specifies a unique identification for a device in a network.
  • a first remote control unit 14 is provided. During operation, the first remote control unit 14 sends and receives signals and commands from the transmitting and receiving unit 12 by radio 17.
  • the remote control unit 14 communicates with a second remote control unit 16, which is designed, for example, as a battery-free remote control unit 16.
  • the remote control unit 16 has an operating element 18 which, when actuated, generates electricity in order to send a signal 20 to the first remote control unit 14.
  • the communication structure Fig. 1 is in schematic view in Fig. 2 shown.
  • the first remote control unit 14 is equipped for a bidirectional radio link, for example via Bluetooth, with the transmitting and receiving unit 12 of the industrial truck.
  • the second remote control unit 16 which is equipped without an energy storage device, has a unique address MAC 2 and communicates directly 20 with the remote control unit 14.
  • the transmitting and receiving unit 12 A coupling of the remote control units 14, 16 is triggered in each case via near-field communication 24, 22.
  • the first remote control unit 14 is brought into the vicinity of the transmitting and receiving unit 12.
  • the transmitting and receiving unit 12 takes over the one-to-one address (MAC 1) of the first remote control unit 14; this address (MAC 1) is used to set up a Bluetooth radio link 17.
  • MAC 1 one-to-one address
  • the transmitting and receiving unit 12 is designed as a transmitting and receiving unit of an industrial truck for a 1: 1 connection.
  • the second remote control unit 16 is coupled to the first remote control unit 14 and not directly to the transmitter and receiver unit.
  • the second remote control unit 16 is connected to the transmitting and receiving unit 12 via a near-field communication 22.
  • the unique address of the second remote control unit 16 is stored in the transmitting and receiving unit 12.
  • the transmitting and receiving unit 12 sends the unique address (MAC 2) of the second remote control unit 16 to the first remote control unit 14 so that it can initiate a coupling process between the first and the second remote control unit. If the first and the second remote control unit are coupled, signals from the second remote control unit can be forwarded to the transmitting and receiving unit 12 via the first remote control unit.
  • the second remote control unit can be designed as a unit that can be fastened to the hand or the fingers and is also operated by the fingers of the same hand.
  • One possible embodiment provides, for example, that the second remote control unit is worn on the index and middle fingers like a ring and that the thumb is operated by pressing.
  • the first remote control unit 14 takes over the wireless communication with the transmitting and receiving unit 12 of the vehicle, for example in the form of radio commands or regular radio signals, so-called heartbeats.
  • the second remote control unit is used to To transmit operator commands to the first remote control unit so that it can then send the commands to the vehicle.
  • the second remote control unit is connected to the first remote control unit via one of the following radio technologies, such as zigbee, Bluetooth, 868 MHz for Europe, 902 MHz for USA / Canada or 928 MHz for Japan.
  • the second remote control unit cannot send any radio commands to the vehicle directly, since this is only designed for a 1: 1 connection with a remote control unit.
  • the second remote control unit 16 has an NFC module for exchanging the unique address (MAC 2) with the transmitting and receiving unit 12.
  • the vehicle only accepts operator commands from the second remote control unit 16 that is assigned to the vehicle by prior pairing with the first remote control unit 14. The assignment must also be ensured in the temporarily de-energized state of the battery-free second remote control unit after power is restored.
