Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022096776A1] Load handling device (1), which device comprises a frame structure (2) and at least two substantially horizontally extending forks (5, 5') for contacting and supporting a load (6), which frame structure is configured to be connectable to a frame of a loader (10), wherein the position of the forks (5, 5') are adjustable by rotating in relation to the frame structure (2) on a cross-sectional plane relative to the length direction of the forks, and the center of rotation (4) of all the forks is located in vertical direction always substantially at the horizontal plane (A) of the forks or below that plane when both of the forks are on the same horizontal plane. The invention also relates to a loader (10) equipped with such a load handling device (1) and to a method for handling loads (6) with a loader (10).
