A driverless automatically guided transport vehicle for conveying payloads for example a material transport vehicle in a factory. The transport vehicle comprises a payload lifting apparatus which is configured to lift the load such that said load can be transported in the lifted state and an eccentric drive to perform a lifting operation of the lifting apparatus.

A driverless automatically guided transport vehicle for conveying payloads, for example a material transport vehicle in a factory, having a payload lifting apparatus. In order to offer a transport vehicle which is improved with regard to the securing of loads, it is proposed that the transport vehicle has a retaining apparatus for securing the load on the transport vehicle, the activation of which retaining apparatus is positively coupled to the lifting movement of the lifting apparatus.

A cargo container lift truck includes a body having a bottom, the body including drive wheels and at least one turning whee l at the bottom, a lift nose capable of going up and down along the body, the lift nose including a lift body that goes up and down along the body, and fork levers disposed at two sides of the front of the lift body, the bottom of the fork levers having support rods to hold up a cargo container. A movement drive device drives the drive wheels, and a lift drive device drives the lift nose up and down. The body further includes a pivotable handle, the handle including buttons that control movement of the body forward and backward, and control raising and lowering of the lift nose.

A pallet jack motor assembly includes a motor unit that is attachable to a planar surface of a pallet jack. A drive unit is coupled to and angles downwardly from the motor unit and the drive unit is in mechanical communication with the motor unit. The drive unit includes a friction wheel which frictionally engages a wheel on the pallet jack. The friction wheel rotates the wheel on the pallet jack when the motor is turned on thereby facilitating the pallet jack to be powered. In this way the pallet jack can transport a pallet without requiring a user to manually push the pallet jack. A control is removably attachable to a handle of the pallet jack for controlling the drive unit.
