Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of mobile personnel lifting platforms (also referred to by the acronym PEMP) still commonly called lifting nacelles. More particularly, the invention proposes a method and a system for anti-crush protection of an operator on board a working platform of an aerial platform, as well as an aerial platform comprising this protection system.
- Aerial lifts are machines designed to allow one or more people to work at height. For this, they include a work platform designed to receive them and possibly also loads such as tools or other equipment, materials such as paint, cement, etc. . .
- the work platform includes a tray surrounded by a guardrail. It is supported by a lifting mechanism which allows it to be raised from a lowered position on the aerial platform frame to a desired working position at height.
- aerial platforms there is a wide variety of aerial platforms to meet the different desired uses.
- aerial platforms are generally qualified, for example scissor lifts, vertical mast lifts, articulated boom lifts, telescopic boom lifts.
- the lifting device may include a turret mounted to pivot around a vertical axis on the chassis in order to allow the orientation of the lifting mechanism and therefore of the work platform to be changed relative to the chassis.
- the aerial platforms can also be self-propelled, that is to say motorized to allow their autonomous movement on the ground.
- the work platform is equipped with a control panel allowing an operator on board the work platform to cause the work platform to move to reach the desired working position.
- the control console is equipped with control elements allowing the operator to operate the lifting mechanism, but also, if necessary, the pivoting of the turret and the movement of the lifting platform on the ground.
- the control console is generally fixedly mounted on the guardrail or at its level and is designed so that the operator stands in front of it when he wishes to manipulate the control elements.
- the control console is sometimes designed to be movable by the operator so as to be able to hang it removably in different places on the guardrail, but preferably on the level with a front corner of the work platform guardrail.
- the desk is generally more compact and lighter than in the case of desks fixed.
- the control console can also be provided so that the operator can hold it with one hand and manipulate its control elements with the other, which in particular makes it possible to control the aerial platform from the ground instead of from the work platform. In this case, the control console is even more compact and even more limited in weight.
- a first type of protection system consists of mounting a fixed or mobile safety bar in front of the control console which is interposed between the control console and the operator standing in front of the console in order to manipulate its control elements.
- the aerial platform control system stops or prevents movements of the work platform when the bar is mechanically biased towards the console.
- This type of solution is illustrated in particular by FR 3 007 401 Al, EP 2 190 775 Al, JP 64-12100, JP H4-77600 U, GB 2 481 709 Al, WO 2017/098120 and WO 2020/144601.
- a second type of protection system uses a contactless detection system to detect an abnormal position of the operator in relation to the control console or another type of risky situation for the operator.
- a typical example consists of detecting too close proximity of the operator to the control console or possibly also too close proximity to the guardrail on one side of the control console.
- the operator protection system stops or prevents movements of the work platform when the detection system detects that the operator is in an abnormal position in order to avoid a risk of injury. operator overwrite.
- JP 5-124800 A teaches to place optical barriers in front of and above the control console.
- WO 2017/178737 proposes an improvement to this system which is based on the detection of an optical beam reflected by the operator instead of the non-reception of the emitted optical beam, which also allows it to be used to detect proximity of the operator with the guardrail when standing on a lateral side of the control console.
- US 10,358,331 B2 proposes using a stereoscopic camera with real-time image analysis.
- WO 2021/026585 proposes using a LIDAR system (Light Detection and Ranging) to detect an abnormal position of the operator or even an abnormal acceleration of the operator's body.
- LIDAR system Light Detection and Ranging
- a common disadvantage of existing protection systems is to stop or prevent movements of the work platform if the operator is not sufficiently vigilant and unintentionally triggers the protection system. This is particularly true in the case of the second type of protection systems which use a contactless detection system because the operator does not easily perceive that he can unintentionally trigger the detection. These untimely shutdowns cause a loss of productivity. In addition, they can irritate the operator, causing him to become nervous and a corresponding drop in alertness which is undesirable.
- FR 2 836 468 Al an anti-collision system using radar or ultrasonic sensors which measure a distance from the chassis or the working platform to an external obstacle. If the measured distance becomes less than a first threshold, the anti-collision system slows down the speed of movement of the work platform or the chassis, then if the measured distance becomes less than a second threshold which is smaller than the first threshold, movement is inhibited.
- a more sophisticated approach to this type of anti-collision protection is also disclosed by US 10,358,331 B2 already mentioned above.
- the aim of the present invention is to provide a solution for protecting the operator on board the working platform of aerial platforms, at least partially overcoming the aforementioned drawbacks.
- the present invention proposes a method of anti-crush protection of an operator on board a working platform of an aerial platform, which method is implemented automatically, the aerial platform comprising a console control panel intended for use on board the work platform and designed to allow the operator to initiate movement of the work platform, the lifting platform further comprising a detection system for detecting a risky situation for the operator on board the work platform.
- the protection method comprises: the implementation of a first rule according to which the movement of the work platform is stopped if the movement is in progress at the time when the detection system detects the occurrence of the risk situation for the operator ; and the implementation of a second rule according to which the movement of the work platform is executed at a reduced speed compared to a normal speed of movement if the risky situation for the operator is detected by the system. detection at the time of engagement of the movement at the control console.
- the management of the risky situation for the operator is therefore different depending on the circumstances in which it is detected. More particularly, the method comprises the implementation of different management of the risky situation for the operator depending on whether the movement of the work platform is in progress at the time when the detection system detects the occurrence of the risky situation for the operator or that the risky situation for the operator is detected by the detection system at the time of engagement of the movement at the control console.
- This different management includes or consists of implementing, depending on the two detection circumstances mentioned, different measures to restrict the operation of the aerial platform. These different measures aim to protect the operator, but are adapted to the two detection circumstances mentioned.
- the same risky situation for the operator is managed either according to the first rule or according to the second rule depending on whether it is the condition of the first rule or the condition of the second rule which is satisfied.
- the condition of the first rule namely whether the movement of the work platform is in progress at the time when the detection system detects the occurrence of the risky situation for the operator, usually corresponds to a significant risk for the operator. 'operator. This is why the implied consequence of the first rule is to stop the current movement of the work platform, in order to avoid possible crushing of the operator. For this reason, it is preferable that the movement stops immediately without delay as soon as the detection system detects the occurrence of the risky situation for the operator.
- the condition of the second rule namely if the risky situation for the operator is detected by the detection system at the time of engagement of the movement at control console, corresponds to a low risk for the operator.
- the risk situation for the operator exists at the very moment when he initiates the movement of the work platform.
- the movement of the work platform engaged by the operator is not the cause of the risky situation.
- the operator voluntarily placed himself in the risky situation before initiating the movement of the work platform. For example, he can approach the control console or the guardrail of the work platform at an unusually small distance in order to have better visibility of the environment of the aerial platform before initiating a movement of the work platform.
- the reduced speed is preferably less than or equal to half the normal speed of the movement concerned and is even more preferably less than or equal to a quarter or even a fifth of the latter. In cases where the speed of the movement concerned can be varied at the control console by the operator, the maximum value of the normal speed of this movement and the maximum value of the reduced speed of this movement will be taken as reference to apply this relationship. between reduced speed and normal speed of movement.
- the first rule and the second rule are implemented automatically. In other words, they are applied automatically by the aerial platform without human intervention when the aerial platform is in operation, which ensures the effectiveness of the protection process. This also means that in the second rule, the reduced speed is applied automatically by the aerial platform without the operator having to engage a command dedicated to this purpose such as pressing a neutralization button (or override button ).
- the fact of authorizing the movement engaged at the control console within the framework of the second rule despite the detection of the risk situation advantageously makes it possible to significantly reduce the number of stops and the downtime of the work platform due to the intervention of the operator crush protection while maintaining an excellent level of operator crush protection. This therefore results in a gain in productivity.
- the implementation of the second rule is automatic, it does not cause any particular annoyance for the operator because the movement that he initiates at the control console is executed immediately without requiring any additional specific action on his part.
- the detection system for detecting a risky situation for the operator on board the work platform can be any type of system making it possible to detect a potentially dangerous situation for the operator on board the platform. work due to the movement of the latter.
- the detection system is preferably designed to detect a risky situation for the operator on board the work platform due to the movement of the work platform.
- the detection system can advantageously be provided to detect a situation involving a risk of crushing for the operator on board the work platform.
- the detection is preferentially carried out in relation to the body of the operator.
- the detection system can in particular be of any type used in the operator's anti-crushing protection systems for aerial platforms of the prior art.
- the detection can conventionally be carried out relative to the body of the operator. A certain number of non-limiting embodiments of the detection system are mentioned below.
- the risk situation detected by the detection system is a position of the operator relative to the control console. This can typically involve detecting proximity of the operator to the front side and/or the top of the control console. In other words, it involves detecting the situation where the operator approaches the control console abnormally compared to the position he normally occupies when using the control console.
- prior art systems may in particular be used consisting of mounting a fixed or movable safety bar in front of the control console to detect a push against it.
- the protection system of the invention is even more interesting in cases where it includes a contactless detection system because the risk of untimely triggering of the detection is greater in this case.
- the control console may involve detecting a distance of the operator from the control console. In other words, in this case it is a question of detecting the situation where the operator is abnormally far from the control console compared to the position he normally occupies when using the control console. Additionally or alternatively, the risk situation detected by the detection system may be proximity of the operator to a part of the guardrail which is adjacent laterally to the control console. In other words, in this case it is a question of detecting the situation where the operator is not standing in front of the control console, but is standing abnormally close in front of a part of the guardrail right next to the control console.
- the risk situation detected by the detection system is the absence of the operator in a specific area in relation to the control console on board the work platform. In other words, in this case it is detect the situation where the operator is outside an area in which the operator is normally located when using the control console.
- Detection of the presence or absence of the operator in a specific area is preferably implemented by contactless detection.
- the detection by the detection system of a risky situation can in other embodiments be based on other physical parameters such as for example an acceleration of the operator's body.
- it may involve detecting an acceleration of the body exceeding a given threshold. This detection may be indicative of an impact from an obstacle external to the aerial platform with the operator.
- the risk situation detected by the detection system may be the proximity of an obstacle external to the aerial platform with the operator on board the work platform.
- Such detection can also be implemented by contactless detection.
- the detection system preferentially uses contactless detection which can be implemented by any suitable technology, for example one or more photoelectric sensors, one or more LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) sensors, a or more LADAR (Laser Detection and Ranging) sensors, one or more RADAR (Radio Detection and Ranging) sensors, one or more ultrasonic sensors and/or one or more cameras or one or more 3D vision devices with image analysis.
- the detection system can also use contact detection.
- the method comprises: after triggering the second rule, executing the movement of the work platform at reduced speed as long as the movement remains engaged at the control console, including if the detection system stops detecting the risky situation for the operator.
- triggering the second rule is meant the case where the movement of the work platform is carried out at a reduced speed compared to the normal speed of movement in application of the second rule due to the fact that the risk situation for the operator was detected by the detection system when this movement was initiated at the control console. Maintaining the current movement at reduced speed despite the cessation of detection of the risky situation for the operator avoids the risk of unbalancing the operator. Indeed, if the speed of movement of the work platform changed from reduced speed to normal speed, the operator could be unbalanced due to the acceleration experienced by his body.
- the method comprises: excluding the implementation of the first rule when the movement is in progress at reduced speed; and after triggering the second rule, executing the movement at reduced speed as long as the movement remains engaged at the control console without taking into account the detection system.
- This embodiment advantageously makes it possible to improve productivity when a movement is in progress at reduced speed due to the triggering of the second rule. Indeed, in the case where the risky situation for the operator ceases to be detected, then is detected again during the execution of the movement at reduced speed, the current movement of the work platform does not is not stopped but will continue to continue at reduced speed as long as the movement remains engaged at the control console. This is acceptable from the point of view of operator safety since the operator can easily react and manage the risk if it is real, taking into account that the movement is performed at the reduced speed.
- the method is applied with respect to a rising movement of the work platform.
- the control console is designed to allow the operator to initiate an upward movement of the work platform and the method comprises: the implementation of the first rule according to which the upward movement of the work platform is stopped if the raising movement of the work platform is in progress at the time when the detection system detects the occurrence of the risky situation for the operator; and the implementation of the second rule according to which the raising movement of the work platform is executed at a reduced speed compared to a normal speed of movement if the risky situation for the operator is detected by the system detection when initiating the lifting movement of the work platform to the control console.
- the method is applied with respect to a movement of the work platform parallel to the ground which is obtained by a translation on the ground of the lifting platform.
- the lifting platform is self-propelled to be able to translate on the ground, the control console being designed to allow the operator to initiate a translation on the ground of the lifting platform.
- the method comprises: the implementation of the first rule according to which the ground translation of the aerial platform is stopped if the ground translation of the aerial platform is in progress at the time when the detection system detects the occurrence of the situation at risk for the operator; and the implementation of the second rule according to which the translation on the ground of the lifting platform is carried out at a reduced speed compared to a normal speed of translation on the ground of the lifting platform if the risky situation for the operator is detected by the detection system at the time of engagement of the lifting platform. the translation on the ground of the lifting platform to the control console.
- the method can also advantageously comprise: implementing the first rule and the second rule only if the work platform is at least partially lifted; and the implementation of a third rule according to which the translation on the ground of the aerial platform is authorized without taking into account the detection system on the condition that the work platform is in a completely lowered position.
- the implementation of this third rule is advantageous in terms of productivity because it avoids possible stoppages in the movement of the aerial platform on the ground due to the protection system. This is acceptable because the operator is then in the situation of a simple driver of a motor vehicle since the working platform is completely lowered, it being specified that it is usually provided in this case to be able to drive the lifting platform at high speed. speed compared to the normal ground translation speed when the work platform is raised.
- the method comprises: the exclusion of at less a movement of the work platform from the implementation of the first rule and the second rule so as to authorize this movement of the work platform without taking into account the detection system.
- this movement is initiated at the control console, it will be executed at its normal speed regardless of any detection of the risky situation for the operator.
- This embodiment is advantageously applicable to any movement considered not to increase the risk for the operator, or even to possibly reduce or eliminate the risk for the operator. Not inhibiting this movement also allows for a gain in productivity.
- control console is designed to allow the operator to initiate a lowering movement of the working platform and the method comprises excluding the lowering movement of the working platform from the setting implementation of the first rule and the second rule so as to authorize the downward movement of the work platform without taking into account the detection system.
- this embodiment can also be advantageously applied to the translation movement on the ground of the lifting platform in forward motion in the case where the aerial platform is self-propelled.
- the control console is designed to allow the operator to initiate ground translation of the lifting platform in forward motion and the method comprises excluding the ground translation of the lifting platform in forward motion from the implementation of the first rule and the second rule so as to authorize the forward translation of the aerial platform on the ground without taking into account the detection system.
- the risk of crushing for the operator compared to forward translation on the ground is very low because the operator naturally looks in the forward direction of the aerial platform in this case and therefore sees it approaching him. a possible external obstacle. This is all the more the case when the control console is fixedly mounted on the work platform because the mounting position of the control console requires the operator to position themselves naturally in front of it, looking towards the front of the lifting platform.
- At least one reset procedure is provided which can be executed on the control console and the method comprises: in the event of triggering of the first rule, the application of a first restricted operating mode until that the reset procedure is carried out; and the prohibition of movement during the entire time of application of the first restricted operating mode.
- triggering the first rule we mean the case where the movement of the work platform is stopped in application of the first rule due to the fact that this movement was in progress at the time when the detection system detects the occurrence of the situation at hand. risk for the operator.
- This embodiment prevents the operator from being unbalanced due to an automatic restart of the movement if detection of the risky situation for the operator ceases after having been stopped by application of the first rule.
- control console is designed to allow the operator to selectively engage any movement among several different movements of the work platform and the method comprises for each movement of the platform of work either the prohibition to execute the movement of the work platform during the entire time of application of the first restricted operating mode, or the authorization to execute the movement of the work platform only at a reduced speed compared to a normal speed of movement - preferably without taking into account the detection system - during the entire time of application of the first restricted operating mode.
- the authorization to execute a movement of the work platform but only at reduced speed is preferentially applied to any movement of the work platform which is considered to potentially reduce or eliminate the risk of crushing.
- the operator can cause such an authorized movement by engaging it at the control console in order to free himself from the risky situation.
- Executing such a movement at reduced speed allows the operator to better control it and therefore safely manage this movement of the work platform. For this reason, it is satisfactory to authorize the execution of the movement of the work platform without taking into account the detection system, which prevents the operator from being bothered by stops in the movement of the platform. form of work due for example to a new detection of the risky situation for the operator, given that the execution of the movement at reduced speed allows him sufficiently safe management of the authorized movements of the work platform.
- the prohibition of executing the movement of the work platform during the entire time of application of the first restricted operating mode is preferably always applied to the raising movement of the work platform because this is almost always dangerous when there is a situation where there is a risk of crushing for the operator.
- the control console is designed to allow the operator to initiate a raising movement of the work platform and the method includes prohibiting the raising movement of the working platform. work during the entire time of application of the first restricted operating mode, regardless of the movement of the work platform which was in progress at the time of triggering of the first rule.
- the method comprises, during the application of the first mode of operation restricted due to the fact a triggering of the first rule at a time when the work platform was subject only to a translation on the ground of the aerial platform in reverse, the authorization to execute only at a reduced speed compared to a speed normal movement the translation on the ground of the aerial platform in forward direction and the descent movement of the work platform.
- these two movements can be useful to the operator in this case to allow him to escape from a situation where he could be crushed.
- the method comprises: in the event of triggering of the second rule, the application of a second restricted operating mode until the reset procedure is executed; and during the entire time of application of the second restricted operating mode, the authorization to carry out any movement of the work platform only at a reduced speed compared to a normal speed of movement.
- the method comprises: when the first restricted operating mode is being applied, deactivation of the first restricted operating mode in the event of execution of the reset procedure provided that the system detection has ceased to detect the risky situation for the operator; and/or when the second restricted operating mode is being applied, deactivating the second restricted operating mode in the event of execution of the reset procedure provided that the detection system has ceased to detect the risk situation for the operator.
- Deactivation of the first restricted operating mode respectively the second restricted operating mode, causes a return to the normal operating mode.
- the reset procedure comprises or consists of disengaging any movement from the work platform to the control console, the method comprising deactivating the first restricted operating mode and/or the second mode of operation in the event of execution of the reset procedure provided that any movement of the work platform is disengaged at the control console and that the detection system has ceased to detect the risky situation for the operator.
- the reset procedure only allows the deactivation of the first restricted operating mode and/or the second operating mode if concomitantly any movement of the work platform has been disengaged at the control console and the control system detection has stopped detecting the risky situation for the operator.
- the lifting platform comprises a turret pivotally mounted on a chassis, the turret supporting a lifting device for the work platform, the control console being designed to allow the operator to engage a rotation of the turret
- the method comprises: implementing the first rule according to which the rotation of the turret is stopped if the rotation of the turret is in progress at the time when the detection system detects the occurrence of the situation at risk for the operator; and the implementation of the second rule according to which the rotation of the turret is executed at a reduced speed compared to a normal speed of rotation of the turret if the risky situation for the operator is detected by the detection system at the moment when the rotation of the turret is engaged at the control console.

- the control console control 10 has on its right side 21 a side plate 11 in vertical extension relative to the housing of the control console 10.
- the plate 11 has at its upper end a suitable shape 12 - for example an upside down U-shaped section - allowing the control console 10 to be hung on a horizontal bar of corresponding dimension of the guard body 8.
- the hooking system can be different and produced in any appropriate manner which allows the operator to manually unhook or hook the control console 10 to the guardrail 8 without requiring any tools.
- the control console 10 is also designed to be able to be held with one hand so that the operator can manipulate the control elements 13, 14 with the other. This allows the operator to control the aerial platform from the ground.
- the control console 10 is provided with a gripping handle 15 produced in this example in the form of an opening provided in the side plate 11.
- the control console 10 is sufficiently compact - preferably d 'a width of less than 30 cm, or even less than 25 cm - and of an appropriate low weight.
- the operator is also likely to approach the section 8b of the guardrail 8 and to lean over this section for example to look at the orientation of the wheels of the lifting platform.
- the operator is even likely to position himself in front of the front side 20 of the control console 10 while facing the side 8b of the guardrail 8 while manipulating the control members 13, 14 with his left hand and to lean over the section 8b of the guardrail 8.
- the risk of crushing against this section 8b then comes above all from an external obstacle above him if he initiates an upward movement of the work platform 3.
- the control console 10 is provided with an anti-crushing protection system for the operator when he is on board the work platform 3: this system protection is referenced 60 in Figure 7.
- the protection system 60 is provided to protect the operator against a risk of crushing due to an external obstacle - for example a part of a building or a structure. or a tree branch - hitting it from behind or above. It includes a detection system 61 comprising two light barriers visible in Figures 3 to 6.
- a first light barrier B1 is erected in front of the part of the panel 8a of the guardrail 8 which is adjacent to the left side 22 of the control console 10.
- a second light barrier B2 is erected above the part of the panel 8b of the guardrail body 8 which is adjacent to the right side of the control console 10 and which extends beyond the front side 20 of the control console 10 in the rearward direction of the working platform 3.
- light barriers B 1 and B2 we can refer to WO 2017/178737.
- the detection system 61 detects a risky situation for the operator means that the detection system 61 detects interference with any of the two light barriers B1, B2.
- the fact of mentioning that the detection system 61 does not detect a risky situation for the operator means that the detection system 61 does not detect any interference with any of the two light curtains B1, B2.
- the protection system 60 also includes a management system 62 for the movement of the work platform 3.
- the detection system 61 is functionally connected to the management system 62 which is designed to manage the movement of the work platform 3 as a function of a detection signal supplied to it by the detection system 61.
- the management system 62 can be constituted by a clean electronic circuit which is interfaced with the on-board electronics 50 of the lifting platform. This electronic circuit can for example be housed in the control console 10. Alternatively, the management system 62 can be completely implemented by the on-board electronics 50 of the lifting platform.
- the management system 62 authorizes a normal operating mode in the absence of detection of a risky situation for the operator by the detection system 61, in other words in the absence of interference with one of the light barriers Bl, B2. In this case, the management system 62 authorizes the execution of the movements of the work platform 3 without any restriction. In other words, when the operator initiates any movement of the work platform 3 at the control console 10, including by means of a translation of the lifting platform on the ground, the management system 62 authorizes its execution without restriction and the on-board electronics 50 therefore implements it at a normal speed of movement.
- the protection system 60 is preferably designed not to influence the translation on the ground of the lifting platform when the work platform 3 is in a completely lowered position because the operator is then in the situation of a simple driver of a motor vehicle.
- the translation on the ground of the lifting platform is authorized without taking into account the detection system 61 as long as the working platform 3 is in a completely lowered position in accordance with the third rule stated above.
- the first rule and the second rule are only implemented if the working platform 3 is at least partially lifted.
- the protection system 60 is preferably designed not to influence the execution of a movement of the work platform 3 when the movement concerned is considered to be in itself without risk. for the operator.
- the protection system 60 can be designed to always authorize the descent movement of the work platform 3 without taking into account the detection system 61.
- the descent movement of the platform is executed at its normal speed as long as this movement is engaged at the control console 10 regardless of whether or not there is interference with one or the other of the light curtains B 1, B2. In fact, there is no risk of crushing the operator in the case of the downward movement of the work platform 3.
- the management system 62 can be designed to always authorize the ground translation of the lifting platform in forward motion without taking into account the detection system 61.
- the ground translation of the lifting platform in forward motion is executed at its normal speed as long as it is engaged at the control console 10 regardless of whether or not there is interference with one or the other of the light curtains Bl, B2. Indeed, in this case too, the risk of crushing for the operator remains low. This is all the more the case if the control console is mounted fixedly on the working platform 3 towards the front thereof, unlike the case of the embodiment described, since in this case the operator at the control console normally looks towards the front of the lifting platform.
- the management system 62 to authorize the change of orientation of the wheels independently of any possible detection of a risky situation for the operator by the detection system 61. Indeed, the change of orientation of the wheels wheels do not cause movement of the work platform 3 and therefore do not present a risk for the operator. And this allows the operator to lean over the guardrail 8 to see the orientation of the steering wheels 5 or 6 during the change of orientation of the wheels that he operates at the control console 10.
- the protection system 60 is on the other hand designed to influence the execution of a movement of the work platform 3 in the event of detection of a risky situation for the operator when the movement concerned is considered to be at risk for the operator. This is generally the case for the upward movement of the work platform 3. In the present embodiment, this is also the case for the translation on the ground of the lifting platform in reverse. In the following, we will refer to these movements as risky movements.
- the way for the management system 62 to influence the execution of a risky movement of the work platform 3 engaged at the control console 10 in the event of detection of a risky situation for the operator is different depending on the chronology between the moment when the movement of the work platform 3 is initiated at the control console 10 and the moment when the detection system 61 detects the risky situation for the operator.
- the management system 62 causes this movement to stop. in application of the first rule. This is the situation where the risky movement of the work platform 3 is initiated by the operator at the control console 10 at a time when the detection system 61 does not detect a risky situation for the operator, but subsequently detects one while the risky movement of the work platform 3 is in progress: the first rule is then triggered.
- the management system 62 immediately causes the risky movement of the work platform 3 to stop. as soon as the detection system 61 signals the existence of the risky situation for the operator.
- the management system 62 immediately causes this movement to stop.
- the first rule does not apply to the downward movement of the work platform 3, nor to the translation on the ground of the aerial platform in forward motion.
- the management system 62 also immediately applies a first restricted operating mode to replace the normal operating mode. This first restricted operating mode is applied at least until a reset procedure is performed.
- the risky movement which was stopped by the management system 62 in application of the first rule remains prohibited throughout the time of application of the first restricted operating mode, including if the detection system 61 ceases to detect the situation at risk. risk. This prevents the risky movement from automatically restarting if the risky situation for the operator is removed.
- the management system 62 also applies restrictions to the execution of other movements of the work platform 3 than that stopped by application of the first rule, if they are engaged at the control desk. command 3 after activation of the first restricted operating mode.
- the nature of the restriction differs again depending on whether the movement of the work platform 3 concerned is considered to be at risk or not for the operator. More precisely, depending on the movement concerned of the work platform 3, the management system 62 either prohibits its execution, or authorizes it but only at a reduced speed compared to a normal speed of movement.
- Any movement of the work platform 3 considered to be at risk is preferably prohibited during the first restricted operating mode.
- the management system 62 preferentially authorizes the execution at reduced speed of the translation on the ground of the aerial platform in forward direction, the translation on the ground of the aerial platform in reverse and the descent movement of the work platform 3.
- the management system 62 preferably authorizes the execution at reduced speed of the translation on the ground of the lifting platform in forward gear and the movement of descent of the work platform 3. On the other hand, the management system 62 prohibits the upward movement of the work platform 3 as mentioned previously.
- the detection system 61 detects a risky situation for the operator at the moment when the latter initiates a risky movement from the work platform 3 to the control console 10, there is triggering of the second rule.
- the management system 62 authorizes the execution of this risky movement of the work platform 3 but only at a reduced speed compared to the normal speed of the movement. This is a case where the risky situation for the operator detected by the detection system 61 pre-exists or occurs simultaneously with the initiation of this movement from the work platform 3 to the control console 10 by the 'operator.
- the management system 62 authorizes the execution of this movement but only at reduced speed.
- the second rule does not apply to the downward movement of the work platform 3, nor to the translation on the ground of the aerial platform in forward motion.
- the management system 62 immediately applies a second restricted operating mode to replace the normal operating mode.
- This second restricted operating mode is applied until a reset procedure is performed.
- the management system 62 preferably authorizes the execution of any movement of the work platform 3 that the operator engages at the control console 10 during the second restricted operating mode, but only at a reduced speed compared to a normal speed of movement. In other words, no movement of the work platform 3 is executed at the normal operating speed during the second restricted operating mode. It is even more advantageous that the management system 62 does not apply the first rule during the second restricted operating mode and authorizes the execution of any movement of the work platform 3 at reduced speed without taking into account the system detection 61.
- the protection system 60 will not cause the movements of the work platform 3 to stop during the second restricted operating mode.
- the operation of the control handle 13 during application of the first restricted operating mode and during application of the second restricted operating mode is preferably similar to the normal operating mode.
- any movement of the working platform 3 permitted only at a reduced speed in the first restricted operating mode or in the second restricted operating mode, which is engaged at the control handle 13 is executed as long as the handle control handle 13 is kept inclined and it is stopped when the operator lets the control handle 13 return to its neutral position.
- the speed of the selected movement also varies as a function of the degree of inclination of the control handle 13, preferably proportionally.
- the maximum value of the speed of the movement concerned is reduced during the application of one or other of the restricted operating modes compared to the maximum value of the speed of this movement during the normal operating mode. This prevents the operator from being disturbed by a different operation of the control handle 13 when the restricted operating modes are applied.
- the maximum value of the reduced speed of a movement of the work platform 3 is less than or equal to half of the maximum value of the normal speed of this same movement and is more preferably even less than or equal to a quarter or even a fifth of the latter.
- the first restricted operating mode and the second restricted operating mode can be deactivated back to the normal operating mode through a reset procedure.
- At least one reset procedure is provided which can be executed on the control console 10 by the operator, which prevents a third party from having to intervene.
- This reset procedure is preferably the same for both restricted operating modes. It is preferable to deactivate each of the restricted operating modes by executing the reset procedure only on condition that the detection system 61 has ceased to detect a risky situation for the operator, which allows a particularly safe passage. to the normal operating mode for the operator.
- the reset procedure consists of disengaging any movement from the work platform 3 to the control console 10.
- the operator must leave the control handle 13 return to neutral position.
- operator O must reposition himself so as to no longer interfere with light curtains B1 and B2 in order to deactivate the current restricted operating mode and reactivate normal operating mode.
- the operator O can restart the movement concerned by reengaging it at the control console 10 or else initiate another movement from the work platform 3 to the control console 10, the movement then being executed at its normal speed in accordance with the normal mode of operation.
- the simplicity of this reset procedure has the advantage of promoting productivity while promoting a safe transition to normal operating mode due to the fact that no movement is engaged at the control console 10 at the time of transition to normal operating mode.
- the reset procedure may additionally include having to press a reset button on the control console 10.
- a push button 40 - or another type of manually actuated member - can be arranged on the control console 10 to allow the operator to neutralize the protection system 60, in other words to prevent the system from protection 60 to stop the movements of the work platform 3, including understood by translation on the ground of the lifting platform, or even to reduce its speed.
- This makes it possible to avoid unwanted triggering of the protection system 60 when the control console 10 is not attached to the guardrail 8, but the operator holds the control console 10 by hand.
- the neutralization is effective only as long as the operator keeps the push button 40 or the organ concerned pressed.
- the operator is informed of the neutralization of the protection system 60 by any signaling on the control console 10 or otherwise. It is preferable to provide such a member for neutralizing the protection system 60 only for removable type control consoles which are intended to be used with one hand by the operator while he holds it with his other hand.
- FIGS 8 and 9 illustrate a second preferred embodiment using another control console - referenced 100 - provided with manual control elements 113, 114 similar to those of the control console 10.
- the elements corresponding to those of the control console 10 are referenced by the same numbers increased by 100.
- the control console 100 is also removable and designed to be hung in different locations on the guardrail 8 by the operator without using tools. But in this case, its hooking system 112 is placed on the rear side 123 of the control console 100.
- the control console 100 has a size and weight greater than those of the control console 10 and is not provided to be held with one hand while manipulating the control members 113, 114 with the other hand.
- the control console 100 includes an operator protection system comprising a detection system with two light barriers B 101, B 102 which respectively provide the same function as the light barriers Bl, B2 of the control console 10.
- the photoelectric detector DI 02 of the light curtain B 102 is housed laterally in the lower part of the front side of the control console 100.
- the photoelectric detector D 101 of the light curtain B 101 is housed in a support 130 which advances relative to a plate rear 111 for mounting to the guardrail 8. This allows the light curtain B101 to be placed at the appropriate distance from the side 8a of the guardrail 8.
- the detection system includes a third light curtain B103.
- the light curtain B103 extends above the control console 100 preferably from the rear 123 thereof so that the operator does not interfere with the light curtain 103 when he stands upright at the control console 100, but on the contrary he interferes with it when he is leaning beyond a certain angle on the control console control 100.
- light barriers B101, B102 and B103 please refer to WO 2017/178737.
- a protection system is provided similar to the protection system 60 of the first embodiment: its management system implements the same management of movements of the work platform as the management system 62 of the first embodiment. The only difference is that a situation with a risk of crushing for operator O is determined this time by the detection of interference with any of the light curtains B 101, B 102 and B 103.
- the maximum detection distance of the light curtains B 101, B 102 and B 103 as well as that of the light curtains Bl, B2 of the first embodiment be limited appropriately in order to avoid unwanted triggering of the protection system when the working environment at height is cluttered.
- the maximum detection distance of each of the light barriers, measured from the control console 10, 100 is less than or equal to 100 cm and more preferably less than or equal to 60 cm.
- This maximum detection distance is referenced respectively 11 and 12 for the light curtains B1 and B2 of the control console 10 - cf.
- FIGS 10 to 12 illustrate a third preferred embodiment which is based on the first embodiment described with reference to Figures 1 to 7.
- the only differences of this third embodiment compared to the first embodiment reside in the system detection of the operator protection system 60. Consequently, all the description made for the first embodiment applies to this third embodiment and the same reference numbers are used to designate the same elements, except for which concerns the detection system - referenced below 61' - and its components.
- the detection system 61' is functionally connected to the management system 62 as in the first embodiment.
- the 61' detection system is based on one or more LIDAR or LADAR sensors. It will now be described in more detail.
- the detection system 61' comprises a first LIDAR or LADAR sensor referenced D201.
- the sensor D201 is arranged on the control console 10 so as to point towards the front of the control console 10 in the direction of the place where the operator O is normally stands in front of the control console 10 when using it to control the movements of the work platform 3.
- the measurement beam of sensor D201 is symbolized by dashes and is referenced Fl. Sensor D201 therefore makes it possible to measure the distance between the operator O and the control console 10 when he stands in front of the control console 10.
- the sensor D201 makes it possible to define a protected driving zone referenced Z2 in which the operator O is supposed to stay when he uses the control console 10.
- the protected driving zone Z2 corresponds to an interval distance defined in relation to sensor D201.
- the protected driving zone Z2 is defined as extending from a distance L1 to a distance L2 greater than Ll, both being defined in relation to the sensor D201. This distance interval is defined so as to correspond to a position of the operator O relative to the control console 10 which is neither too close nor too far from it.
- the 61' detection system can be supplemented by a second LIDAR or LADAR sensor referenced D202. Its measurement beam is referenced F2 in Figures 10 and 11. Sensor D202 is dedicated to detecting a risk of operator O being crushed against panel 8b of guardrail 8 located next to the control console 10 when it is attached to the dedicated location of the guardrail 8. The second sensor D202 is useful due to the small size of the control console 10. In fact, it is possible that the detection system 61' determines that the operator O is located in the distance interval relative to the first sensor D201 which corresponds to the zone Z2 while it can simultaneously be tilted towards the pan 8b, which potentially corresponds to a situation with a risk of crushing for the O operator.
- the sensor D202 is arranged on the control console 10 so that, on the one hand, its measuring beam F2 does not meet the operator O when he is standing normally standing at the control console 10, that is to say without being leaned towards the side 8b of the guardrail 8. And on the other hand, the sensor D202 is arranged on the control console 10 so that its beam of measurement F2 meets the operator O when it is leaned towards the pan 8b while it is located in the distance interval relative to the first sensor D201 which corresponds to zone Z2. As can be seen in Figures 11 and 12, it is arranged on the lateral side of the control console 10 which is close to the panel 8b.
- the measuring range of the D202 sensor may be more limited than that of the D201 sensor.
- the sensor D202 thus makes it possible to laterally delimit the protected driving zone Z2 on the side corresponding to the side 8b of the guardrail 8.
- sensor D202 provides the same protection function as the light barrier B2 of the first embodiment.
- sensor D202 is replaced by light curtain B2 of the first embodiment.
- the detection system 61' detects a potentially risky situation for the operator O as soon as it determines by means of the sensors D201 and D202 that the operator O is located outside of protected driving zone Z2.
- the management system 62 of the operator protection system implements the same management of the movements of the work platform 3 as that which was described above for the first embodiment.
- Figure 13 represents a self-propelled lifting platform according to another embodiment, which lifting platform is of the articulated type. It comprises a chassis 301 supporting a lifting device 302 of a working platform 303.
- the lifting device 302 comprises in a known manner two articulated arms supporting at its upper end a telescopic arm at the end of which the platform is supported -working form 303 possibly by means of a small pendulum arm.
- the lifting device 302 is mounted on the chassis 301 via a turret 304.
- the turret 304 can rotate around a vertical axis relative to the chassis 301, which makes it possible to modify the angular orientation of the lifting device 302 relative to the chassis.
- a control console 300 is fixedly mounted on or near the guardrail of the work platform 303.
- the control console 300 allows an operator to engage the different movements of the work platform 303, including including the translation on the ground of the chassis 301. It therefore makes it possible to translate the lifting platform on the ground in forward and reverse direction, to raise or lower the working platform 303 and to rotate the turret 304 relative to the chassis 301.
- the control console 300 is equipped with an operator protection system on board the aerial platform which operates in a similar manner to those described so far. In other words, it comprises a detection system used to detect a risky situation for the operator on board the work platform 303.
- the detection system can be similar to one or other of the embodiments described previously.
- the detection system is functionally connected to a management system which manages the movements of the work platform 303 in particular on the basis of the detection signal provided by the detection system.
- the management system implements management of the movements of the work platform 303 similar to that described for the embodiments described previously, but by additionally managing the rotational movement of the turret 304.
- the rotational movement of the turret 304 is considered to be a risky movement in both directions of rotation.
- the first rule is also implemented with regard to the rotation of the turret 304, that is to say to stop its rotation if it is in progress at the moment when a risky situation for the operator is detected.
- the first restricted operating mode will authorize the rotation of the turret 304 at a reduced speed in the opposite direction compared to the direction of rotation which was stopped in application of the first rule.
- the rotation of the turret 304 will also be authorized but only at a reduced speed compared to the normal rotation speed, whatever the direction of rotation.
- the first restricted operating mode and the second restricted operating mode described for the other embodiments can be applied in the same way, considering that the rotational movement of the turret 304 is a risky movement in both directions of rotation.
