CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT WITH IMPROVED OPERATOR INTERACTION

Patentradars sammanfattning

The invention describes a construction equipment system—targeting demolition robots and similar hydraulically powered machines—where a remote control device maintains two distinct communication links: a first link to the machine's on-board control unit and a second, separate link (e.g., Bluetooth) to a wearable personal device such as hearing-protection headsets worn by the operator. The remote control device synthesizes audio notification signals representing hydraulic system state (pressure, dump valve position, actuator endpoints, track/leg activity, deadband traversal) and streams them to the personal device, enabling the operator to 'hear' machine status even in high-noise environments or at distance. This dual-link architecture improves reliability, reduces power consumption on the personal device, and permits use of standardized short-range wireless protocols toward the operator while retaining proprietary or safety-hardened protocols toward the machine.
