Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method of operating an automated guided cart may include directing, using a controller, the cart on a production operation path; automatically detecting a state-of-charge in an on-board battery pack; signaling to a remote station the state-of-charge; and when the state-of-charge is below a predetermined charge limit, the remote station automatically signaling the cart to automatically veer from the production operation path to a low battery charge path and stop at a battery station.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method of operating an automated guided cart, the method comprising the steps of: (a) directing, using a controller, the cart on a production operation path; (b) automatically detecting a state-of-charge in an on-board battery pack; (c) signaling to a remote station the state-of-charge; and (d) when the state-of-charge is below a predetermined charge limit, the remote station automatically signaling the cart to automatically veer from the produ…
