Timber transport device for use on sloping grounds after harvesting

摘要

The device has a rectangular frame (1) with a driver's cabin (2) positioned at one end, whose angle of inclination can be adjusted according to the terrain where the device is used on. Four vertical bars (3), attached to the bottom of the frame, keep the timber in place during transport. A loading crane (5) is positioned between the cabin and the loading space. In order to move the device one rope (19) is fixed to a stationary point like a tree stump in front of the device and another rope (18) leads to the tree stump etc. behind the vehicle. Both ropes are wound up or released alternating on to two drums (12,13) as required.
