A driver cab for an industrial truck comprises a driver canopy supported by four pillars, wherein two of the four pillars are configured as entry way pillars and two of the four pillars are configured as end wall pillars. A side wall extends between each of the entry way pillars and the end wall pillars, an end wall extends between the end wall pillars, and a boarding area extends between the entry way pillars. Each of the end wall pillars comprises a tubular profile and at least one of the entry way pillars comprises a corner profile which comprises two limbs arranged at an angle with respect to one another.

An industrial truck include a chassis with bearing points, two drive wheel arrangements each having a drive wheel, a guide arrangement for each drive wheel arrangement, and a hydraulic piston-cylinder unit for each drive wheel arrangement. The guide arrangement includes at least two connecting rods each having a first end and a second end, a coupler having a first side, a second side, and coupler bearing points, and a guide direction component which extends approximately perpendicular to a plane of the chassis. Each connecting rod is arranged so that the first end is on a chassis bearing point and the second end is on a coupler bearing point. Each piston-cylinder unit is connected on a piston side to the chassis and on a cylinder side to a drive wheel arrangement or vice versa. A cylinder volume of each piston-cylinder unit is hydraulically connected to each another.

An exhaust system having a pipe for conveying exhaust from an engine, the end of which has an outwardly-protruding lip; a first pipe flange having a hole large enough to allow the lipped end of the pipe to pass through it, and a recessed shoulder adjacent the hole; a collar, configured to releasably encircle said first pipe, to abut with the recessed shoulder at its outer periphery, and the lipped end of the pipe at its inner periphery, thereby preventing the collar and lipped pipe assembly from passing through said hole; and a second pipe flange configured to attach to said first pipe flange to connect a tail pipe to the first pipe, and to hold the pipe, flange and collar assembly together. The invention also provides counterweights for counterweighted lift trucks adapted to secure such exhaust systems, and methods of fitting such exhaust systems.

The present invention relates to the field of engineering mechanics and more particularly, relates to an engineering work vehicle, and most particularly, relates to a vehicle with a low gravity center and aerial work platform. The vehicle includes a vehicle frame, a power system, a fuel tank, and a hydraulic tank all of which are mounted at a side of the frame. Correspondingly, the embodiment of the invention also provides an aerial work platform which provides better off-road performance and grade-ability, can work in complicated environment, and owns a longer horizontal reach and larger working range. Moreover, maintenance and repair cost is decreased, lifetime is extended, integrity is higher and appearance looks better.

Some aspects of the present disclosure provide a modular vehicle frame for a material handling vehicle. In some configurations, the modular vehicle frame includes a battery compartment, a handle configured to control a speed and direction of a traction wheel, and a mounting assembly configured to selectively quick-connect to a material handling attachment. In some configurations, the mounting assembly includes a mounting plate having a first side and a second side, at least one pivot block extending from the first side of the mounting plate and configured to provide a pivotal interface with the material handling attachment, and at least one locking latch attached to the second side of the mounting plate and configured to provide a selective locking interface with the material handling attachment.

The invention relates to a lifting machine (1) comprising a lifting arm (3), a rolling chassis (2) equipped with at least one front axle (5) and one rear axle (6), and a sensor for measuring the tilt of the lifting arm (3) in relation to the chassis (2), the rear axle (6) being pivotably mounted around an axis that is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the machine (1). The rear pivoting axle (6) is mounted to freely pivot inside an angular range defined by two abutments supported by said chassis (2), the front axle (5) is coupled to the chassis (2) by a pivoting connection with an axis that is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the machine (1) and is equipped with an activatable/deactivatable suspension (9) in order to allow the relative pivoting between the front axle (5) and the chassis (2) to be damped, said suspension (9) being deactivated at least when the angle value measured by sensor (4) for measuring the tilt of the lifting arm (3) is greater than a predetermined threshold value.

A driverless transport unit, travel unit, and method for controlling a travel unit for a transport unit, in which a control signal for activating a travel unit is emitted by a controller in the transport unit, whereupon one or several electric motors of the travel unit are activated for driving wheels and the transport unit is moved forwards or backwards. The driving operation is monitored by a safety control/controller. Upon detection of a malfunction, in which driving operation of the travel unit or transport unit is continued on the basis of an emitted stop signal, or upon interruption of the energy supply, at least one blocking device is activated in the travel unit for stopping the travel unit or transport unit, respectively, wherein at least one gear, at least one gear wheel or directly at least one wheel is blocked via the blocking device.

A transport robot is configured to transport a transported object(s) in a state of sandwiching the transported object(s) by cooperating with another transport robot when transporting the transported object(s).

A trailer towable compact telehandler having an operator cab with an internal width greater than 700 mm and a curbside weight less than 2950 kg. Also included is a telehandler having a side-mounted engine which extends through a side wall of the chassis and under a lifting arm of the telehandler. Also included is a compact tool carrier having a reduced fore-aft dimension between an attachment plane and a principal pivot member.

A telehandler includes a fixed or articulated frame having a front frame segment and a rear frame segment separated by a connecting point. A cantilever support extends from a fixing point on the front frame segment aft beyond the connecting point to a boom support adjacent a distal end. A boom is pivotably secured at a boom pivot to the boom support.
