[0002] Forklifts are an indispensable tool in the development of today's enterprises. The use of forklifts has brought great convenience to people. However, while forklifts bring convenience, they also bring extremely serious unsafe factors. Forklifts are special equipment designed to safely carry and load and unload heavy goods. Trying to use forklifts for inappropriate purposes will greatly increase the probability of accidents. For example, improper operation, overloading, over-limit work, overspeeding, blind spot operation, complex terrain work, etc. will put the forklift and the driver in a dangerous environment. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an intelligent forklift supervision method and system to solve the problem mentioned in the above background technology that the forklift is in an unsafe state due to environmental reasons, vehicle reasons and driver reasons.

Other information management includes the types, quantities, expiration dates, product specifications and manufacturers of forklift parts. The enterprise management platform has the authority to supervise the platform and all forklift information, and is the management platform with the highest authority.

[0008] On the other hand, a method for safe driving of a smart forklift is provided, characterized in that the method includes the following steps: before the forklift is started, the enterprise management platform sends a facial authorization to the forklift smart box, and the forklift smart box controls the voice system to perform voice and facial reminder comparison;

[0009] When the driver faces the camera, the camera in the cab scans the driver's face for intelligent personnel verification. After the driver's face verification is successful, the forklift smart box grants the forklift ACC and ON devices permission to start the vehicle when the vehicle meets the start conditions.

[0010] After the vehicle starts, a signal is fed back to the forklift smart box, and the vehicle begins dynamic patrol mode;

[0011] During the operation of the forklift, the driver is dynamically inspected to ensure the driver inspection function, the driver's identity is detected regularly, and the driver's identity abnormality alarm is recognized; the forklift is always equipped with BSD vehicle blind spot warning during driving. The front and rear monitoring of the forklift can fully monitor and warn the operation of the forklift and the surrounding environment, reminding the driver and surrounding pedestrians to ensure safety; the driver must be in good condition during the operation of the forklift, and the set DMS warning supports the detection and warning of the driver's smoking, phone calls, fatigue driving, and distracted behavior;

[0012] When parking is really necessary, in order to prevent the driver from causing serious danger by not parking in time, the forklift is equipped with radar detection to stop the forklift according to the actual situation.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] The BSD vehicle blind spot warning and the front and rear monitoring of the forklift in the present invention can completely monitor and warn the front and rear operation conditions of the forklift and its surrounding environment, remind the driver and surrounding pedestrians to ensure the safety of the forklift and have a complete status record.

[0015] The driver monitoring in the present invention performs all-round monitoring when the forklift is started and running. The vehicle start control detects the driver's biological face, compares the driver's identity information, controls the vehicle start, and ensures that the person has a specific vehicle.

[0016] The DMS warning in the present invention supports the detection and warning of driver smoking, phone calls, fatigue driving, and distracted behavior.

[0017] The driver dynamic inspection in the present invention supports the driver inspection function, regularly detects the driver's identity, identifies the replacement and the abnormal driver identity alarm, and sends information to the management mobile phone APP in real time for management and control.

[0018] The gyroscope alarm of the present invention has a built-in six-axis gyroscope, which can detect sudden acceleration, sudden deceleration and sharp turning behaviors in real time.

[0019] The electronic fence function of the present invention supports setting the drivable area within the field (factory), leaving the area, speeding in the area, and driving during non-working hours.

[0020] The forklift's own information management in the present invention is to upload the forklift's inspection information, accessories information, and fault record information to the supervision platform. When the forklift inspection date is approaching, the accessories validity period is approaching, and the accessories inventory is insufficient, the information is sent to the APP manager. The manager will perform forklift inspection and accessories replacement and purchase operations in advance according to the information prompts. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The forklift smart box controls the voice system to compare the voice and facial reminders. When the driver faces the camera, the camera in the cab scans the driver's face for intelligent personnel verification. After the driver's face verification is successful, the forklift smart box gives the forklift ACC and ON devices permission to start the vehicle. Provide a specific method, where the vehicle startup control is to detect the driver's biological face, compare the driver's identity information, control the vehicle startup, and achieve a dedicated person for a dedicated vehicle.

[0029] After the S002 vehicle is started, a feedback signal is given to the forklift smart box, and the vehicle begins dynamic patrol mode.

[0030] If the driver's facial recognition is unsuccessful after the vehicle is started, the vehicle cannot be started. At the same time, the vehicle will feedback the signal to the forklift smart box and record it for archiving.

[0031] S003 performs dynamic inspections of the driver during the operation of the forklift to ensure the driver inspection function, regularly detect the driver's identity, identify replacements and abnormal driver identity alarms, and if the driver needs to be replaced, authorization or information update will be required from the background APP administrator.

[0034] BSD vehicle blind spot warning is a monitoring system in front of and behind the forklift that can fully monitor and warn the operation of the forklift in front and behind the vehicle and its surrounding environment, reminding the driver and surrounding pedestrians to ensure the safety of the forklift and have a complete status record; blind spot monitoring is left and right blind spot monitoring and rear blind spot monitoring, and is fully displayed on the display screen next to the forklift's rearview mirror. The left and right rear monitoring cameras use 202-degree fisheye cameras to cover close-range detection of pedestrians and issue warnings. Through video analysis of different illumination environments during the day, cloudy days, rainy days and nights, the camera exposure parameters are intelligently adjusted to ensure that the surrounding conditions are clearly displayed on the display screen. The camera adopts IP69K waterproof design (high-pressure water gun spray) and is suitable for outdoor scenes.

[0035] The driver must be in good condition during forklift operation. The DMS warning system supports driver smoking, phone calls, fatigue driving, and distracted behavior detection and warning.

[0036] The electronic fence monitors the vehicle speed and condition within the specified area. It sets alarms for leaving the area, speeding in the area, and driving during non-working hours, and uploads the information to the APP background to remind management personnel.

[0037] S004 When parking is really necessary, in order to prevent the driver from causing serious danger by failing to park in time, the forklift is equipped with radar detection, which can stop the forklift according to the actual situation.
