Abstract

Improvements in the construction of forklift trucks, characterized essentially by understanding the fact that the functions of lifting loads and self-propelled are performed by the energy supplied by batteries that are capable of feeding the respective engines of translation and elevation, carrying built-in rectifier load and being enabled the truck for the transport and stacking of platforms of standard dimensions, making the descents by the action of electrovalves with hydraulic control and/or by manual control, including in the electrical equipment contactors for the different maneuvers and protective fuses, incorporating also reducing systems to harmonize the revolutions of the engine with the desired speed of maneuvers, which are made from a control arm susceptible to abatement and that includes a control panel with the controls of the different organs, the aforementioned being two automatic return to the neutral point, and having provided and incorporated the use of a key switch and an acoustic warning, acting the folding control directly on a drive wheel to facilitate ease of maneuver, also incorporating an electric brake capable of stopping the traction motor, as well as a mechanical pedal that can be operated by a pedal, whose setting in action has the consequence of fixing the truck on the ground, as well as the disconnection of the electric drive system.
