Abstract
An industrial truck, such as a counterweight fork-lift truck, has a vehicle frame (1) with a frame portion (2) configured to receive a battery block. The frame portion (2) has at least an upper frame opening (2a) and a lateral frame opening (2b). The lateral frame opening (2b) can be covered by a door (3) pivotable about a substantially vertical axis (A). The door (3) is configured to reinforce the frame and can be locked in the closed position by a force-transmitting locking unit (4). The locking unit (4) can have a force-transmission element (5) which receives tensile and pressure forces and can be adjusted in the longitudinal and height direction.
Claims14
An industrial truck, comprising:
- a vehicle frame comprising a frame portion configured to receive a battery block, wherein the frame portion includes at least an upper frame opening and a lateral frame opening, wherein the lateral frame opening can be covered by a door that is pivotable about a substantially vertical axis, and wherein the door is configured to reinforce the frame and to be locked in a closed position by a force-transmitting locking unit, wherein the industrial truck is a counterweight fork-lift truck,
- wherein the locking unit includes a first force-transmission element configured to absorb tensile and pressure forces, and
- wherein the frame portion includes a lower frame opening directly adjoining the lateral frame opening.
An industrial truck, comprising:
- a vehicle frame comprising a frame portion configured to receive a battery block, wherein the frame portion includes at least an upper frame opening and a lateral frame opening, wherein the lateral frame opening can be covered by a door that is pivotable about a substantially vertical axis, wherein the door is configured to reinforce the frame and to be locked in a closed position by a force-transmitting locking unit, wherein the industrial truck is a counterweight fork-lift truck,
- wherein the locking unit includes a first force-transmission element configured to absorb tensile and pressure forces, and
- wherein the force-transmission element is adjustable in a longitudinal direction and in a height direction.
An industrial truck, comprising:
- a vehicle frame comprising a frame portion configured to receive a battery block, wherein the frame portion includes at least an upper frame opening and a lateral frame opening, wherein the lateral frame opening can be covered by a door that is pivotable about a substantially vertical axis, wherein the door is configured to reinforce the frame and to be locked in a closed position by a force-transmitting locking unit, wherein the locking unit includes a force-transmission element configured to absorb tensile and pressure forces, and
- wherein the force-transmission element includes a screwed pin connected to the door and a locking pin screwed onto an end of the pin remote from the door, the locking pin configured to engage the vehicle frame or a component connected thereto and thus being fixable in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle.
An industrial truck, comprising:
- a vehicle frame comprising a frame portion configured to receive a battery block, wherein the frame portion includes at least an upper frame opening and a lateral frame opening, wherein the lateral frame opening can be covered by a door that is pivotable about a substantially vertical axis, wherein the door is configured to reinforce the frame and to be locked in a closed position by a force-transmitting locking unit, and
- wherein the locking unit includes a leaf spring which is elastically deformable in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle and is fastened to the vehicle frame and, when the door is in the closed position, fixes a locking pin in a transverse direction.
An industrial truck, comprising:
- a vehicle frame comprising a frame portion configured to receive a battery block, wherein the frame portion includes at least an upper frame opening and a lateral frame opening, wherein the lateral frame opening can be covered by a door that is pivotable about a substantially vertical axis, wherein the door is configured to reinforce the frame and to be locked in a closed position by a force-transmitting locking unit, and
- wherein the frame portion includes a lower frame opening directly adjoining the lateral frame opening.
