  • Patent number: 7322444
    Abstract: A fork-lift truck having a mast, a load-carrying means having a load-carrying fork which is supported by the mast and is adjustable in height by means of a lifting and lowering drive wherein the load-carrying fork is adjustable with respect to the horizontal line by means of an inclination drive, and an electric control and regulation device for the respective drives which is connected to operating members for the lifting and lowering drive and inclination drive, wherein an analog sensor detecting the inclined position of the load-carrying fork is provided the inclination signal of which is sent to the control and regulation device and that the control and regulation device is connected to a separate operating member for the inclination drive or the operating member for the inclination drive is configured in such a way that actuating it causes the load-carrying fork to be automatically moved to a predetermined position, preferably a horizontal position.

  • Patent number: 7165652
    Abstract: A fork-lift reach truck having an extraction mast which is adapted to be displaced, by means of a mast drive, towards and away from a driving portion of the fork-lift truck on a horizontal guide, a load-carrying means which is mounted on a side shift, a side shift guide which is supported by the extraction mast in a height-adjustable way and is adapted to be actuated by means of a lifting and lowering drive, which guides the side shift in a laterally movable way, and a side shift drive, and an electric control and regulation device for the respective drives which is connected to operating members for the lifting and lowering modes, the mast extraction mode, and the side shift mode, wherein an analog sensor detecting the position of the side shift is provided the position signal of which is sent to the control and regulation device, and that the control and regulation device is connected to a separate operating member for the side shift or the operating member for the side shift is configured in such a way tha
