Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9406711A1] A transport unit (100) is designed to be towed behind a prime mover (170) to enable loads to be transported from site to site, over even rough terrain. The unit (100) has wheels (114) journalled on axles (113) on trailing arms (112) provided with springs (116) (or rocker arms) to share the load. The load (e.g. containers, pallets, tanks) is engaged by forks (125) on a carrier frame (124), raised or lowered by a hydraulic ram. As the unit (100) straddles the load with its U-shaped chassis, and the load may be transported at a low height, the unit (100) is very stable. Lights (16), mud flaps (161), brakes and the like enable the unit (100) to be towed on public roads.
