Abstract

A forklift safety control system includes a sensor mounted on a fork of a forklift and detecting a distance between the fork and an obstacle, a wireless communication device mounted on the fork, and a safety monitoring device. The wireless communication device includes a first wireless communication module connected to the sensor and receiving a distance signal detected by the sensor. The safety monitoring device includes a second wireless communication module in communication with the first wireless communication module and receiving the distance signal from the first wireless communication module, a control module connected to the second wireless communication module, and an alarm connected to the control module. The control module controls the alarm based on the distance signal received by the second wireless communication module. When the distance detected by the sensor is less than a preset safety distance, the control module controls the alarm to alert.
