Abstract (en)

A vehicle has a load handling assembly 7 comprising a carriage 20 pivotally mounted at 22 on a boom extension 9. A ram 23 controls pivotal movement of the carriage 21. Pivotally mounted at 33 on a crossbar 25 of the carriage 20 are load handling forks 30. By extension of the ram 23 to pivot carriage 20 in the direction of arrow 42 and rearward displacement of the boom extension 9, the forks 30 when abutting the ground surface 24 can be rotated through 180 DEG about pivot 33 so that such forks can be carried on the carriage 20 and directed rearwardly of the vehicle when not in use. A latch 44 can be provided on the carriage 20 to secure the forks in their stored position. Preferably rams 27 can raise or lower the crossbar 25 in the carriage 20 for varying the height of the forks 30. A platform can be substituted for the forks 30. <IMAGE>
