Publication number: 20230264934Abstract: A forklift includes a vehicle and a cargo handling device. The cargo handling device includes a mast, a lift bracket, and a pair of forks that includes claw portions, the forks being separated from each other in a vehicle width direction. The vehicle includes a vehicle main body, and a pair of straddle legs that is provided such that the straddle legs extend to the front side from a lower portion of the vehicle main body and the cargo handling device is interposed between the straddle legs in the vehicle width direction and that supports the mast such that the cargo handling device is movable forward and backward between an advance position and a retreat position, and front ends of the claw portions are positioned behind front ends of the straddle legs when the cargo handling device is at the retreat position.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 16, 2023Publication date: August 24, 2023Applicant: MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES, LTD.Inventors: Tomoya Okuda, Megumu Tsuruta, Tatsuya Sato, Naoto Kawauchi, Mitsuhisa Kawabe, Masayuki Ishikawa, Noriyuki Hasegawa, Keitaro Kamata, Yusuke Otaki, Yu Shibata, Sho Onodera, Kensuke Nishiura, Ei Onogawa

Publication number: 20110142640Abstract: An object is to provide a cylinder driving device of a wind-power generation system capable of appropriately controlling a pitch angle of each rotor blade at a time of power failure with a simple configuration. The present invention achieves the object by including a piston connected to the rotor blade; a cylinder that moves the piston by a hydraulic pressure; an urging member that urges the piston in one direction; an accumulator that is connected to the cylinder, and supplies hydraulic oil urging the piston in an opposite direction to a direction where the piston is urged by the urging member to the cylinder; and an on/off valve that controls opening or closing of a channel between the accumulator and the cylinder.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 10, 2009Publication date: June 16, 2011Applicant: MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES, LTD.Inventors: Keitaro Kamata, Atsushi Yuge
