FoxBot Autonomous Forklift Unit Description 11

2 Unit Description

The FoxBot Autonomous Forklift is an autonomous, self-driving forklift engineered and designed to unload semi-truck box trailers with minimal or limited human interaction. It can be operated in one (1) of two (2) modes: Autonomous or Manual. In Autonomous mode (without an onboard operator) the FoxBot requires minimal setup and then can be set free to do its work. In Manual mode, the FoxBot can be driven by an onboard operator that controls the FoxBot using local controls, much like a standard forklift. The FoxBot Cabin (Cab) area can accommodate a single user, in the vertical (standing up) position. All controls are positioned well within the operator’s line of sight and are easily manipulated/functioned. The FoxBot is battery-powered and will hold a charge for approximately eight (8) hours, under general workload. Battery life may vary substantially with the level of use. In Autonomous mode, the FoxBot can be controlled and monitored remotely, if necessary. There are five (5) Emergency Stop (E-Stop) buttons located around the FoxBot in case an emergency situation arises. Additionally, there are other sensors that constantly monitor real-time operating conditions of the FoxBot, such as sensor connection, battery power, and loss of power.

NOTICE

1) During normal operations, one or more Stack Light(s) should always be on or blinking. During system power-on or in the presence of a severe fault, the Stack Light may not illuminate. 2) A red light indicates that the FoxBot will not resume without human intervention. Even when the fault conditions are clear, the FoxBot must go through a startup procedure, indicated by a yellow blinking light (which indicates a hazard), for a period of time before resuming movement in “Autonomous” mode.

⚠ WARNING

NEVER approach a FoxBot while it is in autonomous operation unless a red light is showing. If you must approach a FoxBot while it is in autonomous operation use a tablet to cancel the current operation. Failure to observe this label could result in serious bodily injury or DEATH!

5.2 UPS and Battery System

5.2.1 Theory of Operation

To facilitate keeping the autonomy system alive through loss of power events, such as a changing of the primary 36V battery, the FoxBot is equipped with an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) that protects the primary autonomy computer.

This UPS can select between two energy sources:

1. The primary forklift battery, as described in Section 2.1 (Performance Data). This battery provides power for the entire forklift during normal operation(s).
2. A secondary, 24V backup battery. The UPS continuously monitors its own input power channel and, if it detects loss of power, will switch to the battery backup. The input power channel of the UPS is sourced from one of two locations:
3. If the 110V plug on the backpack is plugged in and active, then the robot is said to have shore power. The robot will use this channel to power the UPS. Otherwise,
4. The primary 36V battery is used if no shore power is present. The battery backup can keep the autonomy computer alive for approximately 45 minutes on a full charge. When the backup is engaged, the system will beep slowly. Connecting the primary battery or shore power will silence this.

5.2.2 To Isolate Power

1. Remove the 110V plug into the backpack to remove shore power.

Disconnect the primary 36V battery.

Press and hold the UPS/Reset Button on the dash for 5 seconds. An audible beep should sound and the light on the switch will extinguish.

Release Date: March 2023 Manual Number: FoxBot-IOM-001 Rev 0

Forklift Truck Models Covered in This Manual

LOCKOUT/TAGOUT

LOCKOUT is not only used to disconnect a power supply, but also to physically isolate power sources from supplying power to the forklift truck, with a lockout device, disabling the forklift truck. TAGOUT also reduces the risk of operating the machine during LOCKOUT with the use of a "DO NOT OPERATE" or similar warning tag. Warning tags are ideally placed on the lockout device to indicate the forklift truck must not be operated until the tag is removed. Combined use of LOCKOUT/TAGOUT reduces the risk of accidental or inadvertent operation. A forklift truck that has been LOCKED OUT and TAGGED OUT must not be operated until the required service has been completed and the forklift truck is no longer LOCKED OUT and TAGGED OUT. NOTE: In the United States, employers have a responsibility to provide a safe workplace under the regulations of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). For more information on OSHA LOCKOUT/TAGOUT see the 29 CFR 1910.147 and Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.147 (available at www.osha.gov).

WARNING -Personnel could be exposed to death or serious injury if LOCKOUT/TAGOUT procedure is not performed prior to servicing the forklift truck. -Only the trained technician who performs the LOCKOUT/TAGOUT procedure must release the forklift truck back into service. -Only proper LOCKOUT/TAGOUT devices must be used.

WARNING Basic requirements before servicing equipment: -Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. -Move equipment to secure maintenance area. -Park the forklift truck on a hard and level surface with the forks lowered until the forktips touch the ground, parking brake applied, direction lever in the NEUTRAL position, engine stopped, and the wheels blocked. -Turn the key switch to the OFF position. -Remove the key from the key switch.

Typical LOCKOUT/TAGOUT procedures are shown below: Battery forklift truck

(1) Remove the key to the forklift truck from the key switch and access the battery compartment. (2) Disconnect the battery plug/connector and their connections from the forklift truck and place in the proper lockout device. (3) Lock the lockout device. (4) TAGOUT the forklift truck by placing a “DO NOT OPERATE” or similar warning tag where it can be visibly seen. (5) After the work is finished, the technician with the key to the forklift truck must unlock the lockout device and remove the tag. vi

The most extreme usage of the forklift truck includes frequent driving between low temperature freezer and warm warehouse areas with high humidity. In such usage, heavy condensation, formation of ice and corrosion can occur. It is preferable that when low temperature freezer forklift trucks are not used, they are kept in an area where the temperature is between 30°F (-1°C) and 23°F (-5°C) and the humidity is low. Cold storage applications require well-trained forklift truck drivers and regular forklift truck maintenance. COLD STORAGE MODIFICATIONS When preparing the forklift truck for cold storage conditioning, the number of modifications should be kept to a minimum.

• Water drainage is already considered in the standard chassis design.
• Some preconditioning and painting of the components will be used.
• All hinges, axles, and bearings are surface treated or equipped with grease fittings.
• Replacement of the hydraulic oil is not required in Cooler (High Temperature Freezer Truck) in some cold storage applications. 8.4 CARE IN SEVERE DUST OR LINT CONDITIONS For operating the forklift truck in severe dust or lint conditions, consult your dealer.

-Daily charge. This should be done every day and normally takes eight hours to fully charge a battery. -Equalizing charge. This charges the battery at a slow rate and balances the charge in all the cells. This should normally be done once per week. The most accurate check of specific gravity is obtained after the equalizing charge is complete.

• Check the battery charge -Use a hydrometer. -Complete the pre-start inspection procedure. WARNING

Explosive gases are generated when batteries are being charged. Always ensure adequate ventilation for battery charging. Do not smoke, keep flames and sparks away.

CAUTION

• Always turn off charger before connecting or disconnecting the battery.
• Always check the water level before charging to make sure the plates are covered.
• Never overfill before charging. The electrolyte will expand during charging and may overflow.
• After charging, add water to the battery manufacturer’s full mark.
• Do not plug a battery charger into the forklift truck. This severely damages the forklift truck's electrical systems. 9-14
