A manually movable transporting means that is nestable with identical transporting means has a chassis equipped with longitudinal members, said chassis carrying a loading and/or nesting device which is mounted on the chassis so as to be movable about respective horizontal axes and rests on at least one support. A supporting element is provided at the front end of the loading and/or nesting device and at least one inclined deflector surface is arranged in the rear region of the transporting means, said deflector surface dropping obliquely towards the rear and being designed to receive the supporting element of a further identical transporting means driven onto said surface, which means can be pushed into a transporting means located in front. At least one clearance is formed next to each support, wherein, as viewed in the horizontal view of the transporting means and in the longitudinal direction thereof, each deflector surface is pictured as being located in a clearance. When two transporting means are nested, each deflector surface of one transporting means uses or takes up the clearance assigned to the deflector surface of the other transporting means.
A mobile transportation apparatus which is nestable in a space-saving manner with like transportation apparatuses and has a chassis with longitudinal beams, which carries at least one storage installation for storing items, wherein each storage installation is mounted on the chassis so as to be movable in each case about a horizontal axis and bears on at least one support which is located on the chassis, and wherein at the front end of the storage installation at least one support element is provided and in the rear region of the transportation apparatus at least one inclined impact face which is downwardly inclined toward the rear and is specified for the at least one support element of a further like transportation apparatus, which may be pushed into a transportation apparatus located in front, to be run thereonto is disposed, wherein at least one free space is formed beside each support, and in that in the horizontal view of the transportation apparatus and when viewed along the longitudinal direction of the latter each impact face is visualized so as to be plunged into a free space, and in that during nesting of two transportation apparatuses each impact face of the one transportation apparatus utilizes or claims the free space of the other transportation apparatus assigned to said impact face of the one transportation apparatus.
