Abstract: An industrial truck (1) has a load fork (7) comprising two fork tines (7a, 7b). A load carrier interlocking device (15) is formed by two pivotable cheeks (16a, 16b), each of which is provided with a toothed segment (17a, 17b) on end surfaces facing each other. The toothed segments (17a, 17b) secure the load carrier (L1, L2, L3) positively. The cheeks (16a, 16b) are biased by a spring device (30) toward a pick up position and an interlocking position. When the industrial truck (1) enters a load carrier (L1, L2, L3) with the load fork (7), the cheeks (16a, 16b) are pivoted outwardly away from each other by the load carrier (L1, L2, L3) against the force of the spring device (30). When the load carrier (L1, L2, L3) is completely picked up, the cheeks (16a, 16b) are actuated by the spring device (30) toward the interlocking position, in which the load carrier (L1, L2, L3) is secured positively in position by the toothed segments (17a, 17b).
