AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing lift devices in vehicle maintenance yards lack a safety mechanism to appropriately lower the support base in response to the presence of individuals or objects in the vicinity, posing a risk of accidents.
Method used
A safety device comprising a sensor system that detects the presence of objects in a defined detection area, interrupting the operation signal to the lift control circuit if an object is detected, thereby preventing the lowering of the support base.
Benefits of technology
Ensures safe operation of the lift device by preventing the lowering of the support base when individuals or objects are present, enhancing safety in vehicle maintenance environments.

Abstract
To provide a safety device that can appropriately lower the support base of a lifting device in response to various circumstances. [Solution] The safety device according to the embodiment comprises a detection unit and a relay. The detection unit detects the presence of an object to be detected in a detection area opposite to the input unit in the width direction of the vehicle. When the detection unit detects the object to be detected in the detection area, the relay interrupts the transmission of an operation signal to lower the support stand that supports the vehicle in the transmission path from the input unit.
