The application discloses a hardware protection method for remote
upgrade of a forklift controller program and prevention of
brush death, and is based on a
hardware structure of a forklift controller integrated with a main control MCU (U1), a main program storage module (U2), a redundant
backup storage module (U3), a hardware power-off protection unit and a hardware one-key triggering unit. The application has extremely fast response speed, does not depend on the operation of the main control MCU, and completely avoids the fatal defect that
software protection directly fails when power is
cut off during
upgrade. Two physically independent storage chips are adopted to realize complete isolation of main and
backup programs, and meanwhile, a safe
upgrade sequence of 'first brushing the
backup disk and then brushing the main disk' is adopted to ensure that at least one complete program is available throughout the process. The
system repair can be quickly completed without returning to the factory for shell disassembly and
programming, and only a small amount of general electronic elements need to be added on the basis of the original controller, the main control
chip does not need to be replaced, the incremental cost is extremely low, the new and old forklift models can be directly adapted, and the application is suitable for batch promotion and application.
