Abstract: A towing vehicle includes a vehicle body, a coupling device provided in a rear portion of the vehicle body, and an inching control switch located at a position in the rear portion of the vehicle body shifted from a center of the rear portion of the vehicle body in a vehicle width direction. The vehicle body has a mount surface provided adjacent to a rear corner thereof. The mount surface is exposed to the outside and the inching control switch projects from the mount surface to the outside of the vehicle. The mount surface extends at an angle with respect to the vehicle width direction. A part of the mount surface that is closest to the center of the rear portion in the vehicle width direction is located rearward of the other part of the mount surface that is most distant from the center of the rear portion.

Abstract: A towing vehicle includes a vehicle body, a coupling device, a floor board, and a step. The coupling device is disposed at a rear portion of the vehicle body to connect a towing object to the vehicle body. The floor board is disposed in the vehicle body. The step is disposed in the vehicle body at a position lower than the floor board to form a level difference between the step and the floor board. The step includes an upper surface and a plurality of sides that bounds the upper surface. The plurality of sides includes at a rear portion of the upper surface a rear side that extends rearward and outward from the floor board. The vehicle body includes a rear surface that extends upward from the rear side.

Abstract: An industrial vehicle including a frame, a counterweight connected to a rear part of the frame, and a drive device disposed in a lower position of the counterweight to drive rear wheels. The counterweight has an opening extending in a vertical direction. At least part of the drive device is disposed immediately below the opening.

Abstract: An industrial vehicle includes a frame, a counterweight that is connected to a rear part of the frame and a drive device that drives rear wheels. The drive device includes a drive device body and a pair of damping members that is mounted to the counterweight on right and left sides of the drive device body and allows relative motion between the counterweight and the rear wheels. The counterweight has a left mounting portion and a right mounting portion that are formed by machining. The left mounting portion and the right mounting portion have a first mounting hole and a second mounting hole, respectively, through which the respective damping members are mounted to the left mounting portion and the right mounting portion. The first mounting hole and the second mounting hole are formed coaxially with each other.

Abstract: A towing tractor includes a frame, a counterweight that is connected to a rear part of the frame, and a plurality of component parts supported by the frame. The frame includes a plurality of frame assemblies that are connected to each other by bolts. Each frame assembly includes a plurality of frame members. Each frame member is selected according to the component parts, from a plurality of members to be selected that is different from each other in at least one of dimensions in a longitudinal direction and a width direction of the frame.

Abstract: There is provided an industrial vehicle including a frame and a counterweight connected to a rear part of the frame.
