A TRANSPORT TROLLEY HAVING PIVOTABLE ROLLER HOUSINGS

摘要

A low-rise trolley to transport palletised cargo (12-18 meters in length and weighing in excess of 30 tonnes) has two parallel forks each supported by two or three sets of rollers (7-13). Respective hydraulic cylinders (140) extend and retract each set of rollers (7-13) with respect to its housing (6) so that loads may be lifted by the trolley. Each housing (6) is pivotally mounted (at 115) to its respective fork so as to allow rollers (7-13) to remain in contact with uneven ground.
