Driverless transport vehicle, has obstacle sensor aligned on control surface at standstill of vehicle, so that value of distance determined by obstacle sensor is compared with reference value stored in database

摘要

The vehicle (1) has a steering device (3) equipped with an obstacle sensor (9) for detecting obstacles on a roadway. A control surface (7) is provided, where the obstacle sensor and the control surface are movable relative to each other. The obstacle sensor is aligned on the control surface at standstill of the vehicle, so that a value of distance determined by the obstacle sensor is compared with a reference value stored in a database, where the obstruction sensor is executed as an optical sensor.
