Abstract: A mobile apparatus includes a main frame with displacing means, a rotating sub-frame rotatably connected to the main frame such that the sub-frame is rotatable around a rotation axis relative to the main frame, and a working arm connected to the sub-frame. The sub-frame includes a standing or seating position for an operator. The working arm includes at least two arm segments, and a first arm segment of the at least two arm segments is pivotally connected to the sub-frame around a pivot point located at a distance of the rotation axis. The first arm segment and the sub-frame are configured such that the first arm segment can be moved rearwards onto the sub-frame in the direction of the rotation axis to a rearward position in which the first segment extends over the rotation axis.
Abstract: Mobile device includes a frame with displacement means, a working arm connected to the frame including at least a first and a second articulation which are hinged to each other. The working arm is hinged to the frame, and at least a first, second and third control devices are adapted for moving the first and second articulation of the working arm and a tool, respectively, at a free end of the second articulation. A control system is adapted for controlling the first, second and third control means. The control system is adapted to drive the first, second and third control means such that the free end of the second articulation follows a predetermined upward movement along an upwardly directed path and the tool remains in a lifting position, the first, second and third control means are simultaneously controlled.
Abstract: A mobile apparatus includes a main frame, an operating arm connected to the main frame, drive means configured to drive displacing means of the mobile apparatus, such as one or more wheels or tracks, drive means configured to drive the operating arm and a control system, connected to operating instruments for a driver, for controlling the drive means. The drive means for the displacing means includes an electric motor such that the drive of the displacing means is substantially electrical.
