  • Publication number: 20110103927
    Abstract: A gripping organ for load-moving vehicles comprises a support structure (7), removably engageable to a support arm (4) of a load-moving vehicle (2); at least gripping pliers (8), operatively engaged to the support structure (7) and predisposed to engage at least an object (P) to be moved, the gripping pliers (8) comprising at least a pair of gripping elements (16) which are mobile between an operating position, in which the gripping elements (16) engage the object (P), and a non-operating position, in which the gripping elements (16) are disengaged from the object (P); the pliers (8) being translatable along a translating direction (A) and rotatable about a rotation axis (B) which is perpendicular to the translating direction (A).

  • Patent number: 7506918
    Abstract: In a seat and a maneuvering cabin for telescopic lifts, the seat comprises means for translating, predisposed to translate the seat forwards and backwards along a determined translation direction, and means for rotating, predisposed to rotate the seat about a rotation axis. The maneuvering cabin comprises: a frame for containing and supporting the cabin; at least a transparent front surface which is solidly constrained to the frame, through which an operator can observe outside the cabin in a frontal direction; a roof comprising a transparent portion, which transparent portion is contiguous to the front surface, through which an operator can observe outside the maneuvering cabin in an upwards direction through a predetermined angle of vision, and a non-transparent reinforced portion which is contiguous to the transparent portion; a maneuvering seat located internally of the frame and positioned below the reinforced portion of the roof facing the front surface.

  • Publication number: 20060045713
    Abstract: A raisable work platform has a horizontal support plane which is predisposed to support a vertical load and is associable to a telescopic lift arm. The device includes: a first joint element, solidly constrained to the support plane; a second joint element, associable to a free end of the telescopic lift arm. Members for connecting, predisposed to connect the first joint element to the second joint element, enable the joint elements to translate only relatively. Members for supporting, interpositioned between the first joint element and the second joint element, are predisposed for supporting the total vertical load of the platform, constituted by the weight of the platform itself and the load borne thereon, through elastic members. Elements for measuring are associated to the members for supporting, which measuring elements signal a reaching of a predetermined deformation of the elastic members.

  • Publication number: 20040151567
    Abstract: The hinge comprises a first link element and a second link element hinged to a free end of a telescopic arm of the lift truck. The first link element is commanded to oscillate about a hinge axis by first means for actuating acting between the free end and the first link element. The second link element, which supports a quick-release mechanism for a tool, is commanded to oscillate about the same hinge axis by second means for actuating acting between the first link element and the second link element.
