Zusammenfassung: | A charging device for charging a battery of a material handling vehicle includes a stand having a stationary portion, a moveable portion that moves relative to the stationary portion, and one or more actuators to move the moveable portion. A charging plate and a sensing array can be supported on the moveable portion. The sensing array detects a position of the charging plate relative to a collector plate of the material handling vehicle. The sensing array includes a first sensor to detect a first position of the charging plate along a first direction and a second sensor to detect a first position of the charging plate along a second direction. Based on signal from the sensing array, a position controller operates the one or more actuators to move the moveable portion to align the charging plate with the collector plate for charging. |
