A battery-retention system employs a retention jaw assembly and a battery-retention mechanism to secure a battery within a battery compartment of a material-handling vehicle. The retention jaw includes a battery-contact portion operatively associated with a barrier portion that is movable between a battery-retention position when the battery contacts the battery-contact portion and a battery-release position when the battery does not contact the battery-contact portion. The battery-retention mechanism includes a stopper block that is operable to be positioned within the battery compartment when the battery compartment door is in a closed position and operable to be positioned external to the battery compartment when the battery compartment door is in an open position.

A materials handling vehicle including a battery receiving space, and a removable battery assembly, wherein: the removable battery assembly includes lateral battery faces, each including a longitudinal guide structure; the battery receiving space includes opposing retention blocks, each arranged on opposite sides of the battery receiving space, and each comprising a retention lever including a fixed end and a distal end; and the longitudinal guide structure of each lateral battery face includes a lever-receiving detent that is configured to receive the distal end of one of the retention levers.

Described is an electrically powered telehandler (1) equipped with an electric motor, a containment compartment (100) for receiving an electric battery (200) for powering the motor. An electric battery (200) which can be inserted in and removed from the compartment (100). The compartment (100) is equipped with an access opening to allow replacement of the battery (200) and guide means (103, 104) for the sliding of the battery (200) during insertion and extraction.

The device (40) is designed to be movably placed in a dedicated location of a machine using a forklift. It comprises passages for the tines (401) of a fork of a forklift and a locking system (300) for selectively locking the device in the dedicated location. The locking system comprises at least one locking member (301, 302) which is movable between a locking position and an unlocking position in order to be engaged and disengaged, respectively, with a retaining member of the dedicated location of the machine. The locking member (301, 302) is resiliently or gravitationally biased in the direction of the locking position. It comprises at least one actuating member (311) extending into a passage for a tine (401) of the fork of the forklift to be actuated by the latter so as to move the locking member into the unlocking position.

An all-terrain outdoor elevating nacelle comprising a mechanism for lifting a working platform, this mechanism being mounted on a chassis provided with a front bridge and a rear bridge that are provided with wheels. The motive power for moving the elevating nacelle on the ground is provided by a first electric motor and that for actuating the lifting mechanism is provided by a second electric motor via a hydraulic pump which it drives. The motors are supplied by a battery that can be recharged by one or more single-phase chargers on board the elevating nacelle from a single-phase or three-phase electrical network, a slot being further provided for mounting a power supply unit intended to be connected to the charger(s) to recharge the battery. The elevating nacelle is more environmentally friendly and quieter.

A battery-retention system employs a retention jaw assembly and a battery-retention mechanism to secure a battery within a battery compartment of a material-handling vehicle. The retention jaw includes a battery-contact portion operatively associated with a barrier portion that is movable between a battery-retention position when the battery contacts the battery-contact portion and a battery-release position when the battery does not contact the battery-contact portion. The battery-retention mechanism includes a stopper block that is operable to be positioned within the battery compartment when the battery compartment door is in a closed position and operable to be positioned external to the battery compartment when the battery compartment door is in an open position.

The invention relates to an electrically powered industrial truck, in particular a narrow aisle forklift truck, comprising a battery box for housing a battery block, which box is open on at least one side for removing the battery block in the width direction of the vehicle and comprises on its top face a strut extending substantially in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, and at least one locking device for the battery block housed in a battery box, wherein the at least one locking device comprises a mount associated with the strut, a pivot shaft, which extends above the battery box in the width direction of the industrial truck and is pivotally held by the mount, and a pivot lever, which is carried by the pivot shaft and is pivotable between a locking position and a releasing position, wherein the pivot lever is designed, when in its locking position, to support the battery block in the width direction of the vehicle and, when in its releasing position, to release the battery block in the width direction of the vehicle.

A battery lock device for a forklift includes a lock plate capable of moving between a first position and a second position. The lock plate at the first position is configured to keep a battery from being protruded. The lock plate at the second position is configured to enable the battery to be protruded. The battery lock device includes a shaft configured to rotatably support the lock plate with respect to a body, a fixed portion opposed to the lock plate, a lock pin capable of sliding toward the fixed portion in a first direction and away from the fixed portion in a second direction, and a spring configured to press the lock pin in the first direction. First and second holes are provided in the fixed portion. The lock pin is inserted into the first and second holes.

A battery box and fork system for a vehicle having a first fork and a second fork configured to support one or more pallets positioned along a length of the first fork and the second fork. The first fork and the second fork are each independently lockable at their heel ends to a battery box.
