METHOD FOR PREVENTING COLLISION OF RECLAIMER AGAINST OPPOSITE MACHINE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce load of an operator and to improve work efficiency by automating the prevention of a collision when a stacker and other reclaimer as opposite machines approach to a reclaimer in operation. SOLUTION: Each of monitoring regions and dangerous regions is set at height direction intervals and horizontal direction intervals of a portion of the opposite machine and a reclaimer boom having a possibility of a collision. When the opposite machine enters the monitoring regions or the dangerous regions, a monitoring control according to each monitoring region or dangerous region is started. After the opposite machine gets out of the monitoring regions, the monitoring control is released. Within a height dangerous region and a revolving dangerous region, the opposite machine is stopped, revolving of the boom is continued, and traveling of the opposite machine is restrarted after the boom gets out of the revolving dangerous region. When the boom goes toward the revolving dangerous region within the height dangerous region and at the outside of the revolving dangerous region, revolving of the boom is stopped before the dangerous region, and the revolving of the boom is restarted after the opposite machine gets out of the monitoring region. In the monitoring region, the opposite machine is slowly traveled. COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
