Transport apparatus for transporting a vibration compactor

A transport apparatus for transporting a vibration compactor, the transport apparatus comprising:

• an axle with a wheel being arranged on each of its ends;
• and
• a transport rocker which is arranged in the axial direction of the axle between the two wheels, said transport rocker comprising a compactor foot receptacle with a compactor foot wraparound, with the compactor foot wraparound being opened in a first transport direction of the transport apparatus and with a rocker suspension with a control cam which determines a loading and transport position for the axle in the manner that by lifting the transport rocker the axle partly runs through the control cam,
• wherein the control cam is a two-leg oblong hole with the axle being held in the loading position in the region of the first leg and in the transport position in the region of the second leg, and
• wherein the first leg is arranged in such a way that the compactor foot receptacle is held in the loading position in a substantially projection-free manner relative to the outside circumference of the wheels,
• wherein the compactor foot wraparound is an arrangement which wraps around and overlaps a portion of each of a bottom side, a lateral side, and an upper side of the compactor foot,
• wherein the compactor foot wraparound has a bottom surface facing the ground and a fork having two fork arms, and
• wherein the two fork arms form a recess and stops to limit the lateral movement of the compactor foot.
