Abstract: A handling apparatus for handling parts, in particular large-volume workpieces, and having at least two gripper modules which are disposed opposite one another at a horizontal carrier which can be moved relative to one another and which are driven by a motor. The handling apparatus is of modular design and having at least one carrier module forming the horizontal carrier and at least two gripper modules as components which can be assembled in modular form.

Abstract: The invention relates to a scissors-type lifting platform, in particular for vehicles: including: stationary support rails on or in the floor level, at least two scissors arms which cross each other and are retained and guided with their bottom ends in the support rails, a hinge connecting the two scissors arms approximately centrally to each other, a lifting assembly engaging the scissors arms for spreading and contracting the scissors arms, at least one travel rail having contact areas and supported on the top ends of the scissors arms, wherein one of the scissors arms is connected to a travel rail with its top end in hinged manner and the other scissors arm is guided on the travel rail with its top end in longitudinally displaceable manner upon the lifting and lowering movement of the scissors-type lifting platform, characterized in that the longitudinally displaceable ends of the two scissors arms (12, 13; 20, 21) can be arrested with the associated travel rail (28) at least in the lifted position.
