The inner part 23 of each arm is moved at twice the velocity of the outer part 22 by a tape 27 attached to the part 23 and to the carriage passing around a roller at the appropriate end of the outer part 22. The lifting members 31 extending the length of the inner arm parts 23, are each flexibly mounted on a pair of independently supplied pressure fluid rams 32, one of which is flexibly mounted on the part 23. The fork arms may be extended to either side of the carriage 16, 17. |
