Abstract (en)
Improvements in mechanical handling equipment comprising a mobile auxiliary lifting and lowering device intended for use with a power-driven truck, the device comprising a wheeled frame (11, 13) supporting generally horizontally-extending tines (19); means allowing the device to be selectively coupled and uncoupled respectively to and from the lifting carriage of the truck; first power-driven means (35) to raise and lower the tines of the device relative to the frame; and second power-driven means (15A) to drive each wheel (15) of a transversely-spaced-apart pair of the device's wheels independently in either direction of rotation; both said power-driven means (35, 15A) being adapted to be controlled from the truck. The last mentioned power-driven means (15A) may comprise two motor-in-wheel units (15A), one in each driven wheel (15), and each of the motor-in-wheel units (15A) may swivel about a respective steering axis.
