Abstract: A transport vehicle includes two non-steered drive wheels, two non-driven steered load wheels, drive motors for driving the drive wheels, a steering target value encoder, a device for detecting the steering angle of one of the load wheels, and an electric control unit. An actuation of the steering target value encoder displaces a steering pole along a steering pole axis. The steering target value encoder steers each of the load wheels from a first position in which the load wheels' axes run parallel to the drive wheels' axes into a second position in which the load wheels' axes are oriented to the steering pole which lies between the drive wheels. The electronic control unit influences a rotational speed of the drive motors as a function of the steering angle and reverses a direction of rotation of at least one of the drive motors as a function of the steering angle.

Abstract: A method for operating an industrial truck having three wheels. During longitudinal travel, two steerable wheels run in succession in a first lane, and a third wheel runs in a second lane. The third wheel initially runs on an inside during a turning in while cornering until the industrial truck, during a further turning in, transitions into a revolving motion. The method includes reducing a drive power as of a specific steering angle during the turning in prior to the revolving motion, and disengaging or reversing a direction of a drive rotation of the third wheel after a delay time which begins with the reducing of the drive power, or, continuously reducing the drive power from the specific steering angle during the further turning in, and disengaging or reversing the direction of rotation of the third wheel when transitioning into the revolving motion.
