Abstract: The invention relates to a load-securing device (100), wherein the load-securing device (100) comprises at least one mast (151), a retaining element (110), a supporting element (120), and a guide rail (130), which has a curved track (131) that is bent by 90° at the lower end thereof, the load-securing device (100) is arranged on the at least one mast (151) in such a way that the load-securing device can be slid vertically in the x-direction, the guide rail (130) is extended substantially parallel to the at least one must (151), and the supporting element (120) engages with the guide rail (130), wherein the supporting element (120) is supported by the guide rail (130) and wherein the retaining element (110) is arranged in such a way that the retaining element can be pivoted about a pivot point (112), wherein the retaining element (110) can be activated by the pivoting thereof into a substantially horizontal position, wherein the pivoting of the retaining element (110) in the vertical direction (x) is prevented

Abstract: The invention relates to a load-handling apparatus (1) adapted to be mounted on an elevatable lift carriage of a lift truck, wherein the load-handling apparatus comprises a frame having at least four parallel guides (5, 7, 9, 11) making up a first pair of parallel abutting guides (13) and a second pair of parallel abutting guides (15), at least two oppositely directed and hydraulic actuated piston cylinders, wherein at least two outer load-handling arms are connectable to said hydraulic actuated piston cylinders (25, 27) for moving said outer load-handling arms (3) with regard to said guides to and from each other for engaging a load and at least two inner load-handling arms (4) of which each is connected to at least one spring (101, 103) for keeping a fixed position of said inner load-handling arms to the frame during movement of the outer load-handling arms over a predetermined distance.
