RADIO-LOCATION SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING THE LOCATION OF A TRANSPORTATION VEHICLE FOR CONTAINERS
The invention relates to a radio-location system for determining the location of a transportation vehicle (101, 201) for containers (105, 106) within a working area, having a radio-location system (107) comprising a plurality of active, terrestrially arranged location markers (107c) which transmit p...

Zusammenfassung: | The invention relates to a radio-location system for determining the location of a transportation vehicle (101, 201) for containers (105, 106) within a working area, having a radio-location system (107) comprising a plurality of active, terrestrially arranged location markers (107c) which transmit position data, antennas (107a, 107b) which receive the position data, receivers (107d) which process the received position data and having at least one transportation vehicle which is embodied as a gantry forklift truck (101) with at least one of the antennas (107a, 107b) with a receiver (107d) and a navigation computer (108) which converts the position data into driving instructions for the transportation vehicle. In order to provide an improved system it is proposed that at least two antennas (107a, 107b) should be arranged on the transportation vehicle (101, 201), that the at least two antennas (107a, 107b) should be spaced apart from one another, and that the navigation computer (108) should determine, in addition to the position of the transportation vehicle (101, 201), also the orientation of the transportation vehicle (101, 201) from the position data of the at least two antennas (107a, 107b). |
