The present invention discloses a load lifting unit for a lift truck, and more particularly, an improved structure of a load lifting unit for a counterbalance type lift truck. In the invention, to increase the loading capacity and longitudinal stability of the lift truck as well as to improve the forward view from the lift truck, two lift cylinders (7) are separately disposed on the sides of a pair of upright assemblies (1) of the load lifting unit, respectively, to provide a space (17) between the upright assemblies for allowing a lift member (4) to be lifted and lowered within the space and for allowing actuating means of various operations attachments engaged with the lift member to be accommodatedly arranged within the space.

Load lifting unit for a lift truck

The present invention relates to a load lifting unit for a lift truck, and more particularly, a load lifting unit for a counterbalance type lift truck. In the invention, to increase the loading capacity and longitudinal stability of the lift truck as well as to improve the forward view from the lift truck, two lift cylinders (7) are separately disposed on the sides of a pair of upright assemblies (1) of the load lifting unit, respectively, to provide a space (17) between the upright assemblies (1) for allowing a lift member (4) to be lifted and lowered within the space and for allowing actuating means (32) (55) (82) (90) (120) and (127) of attachments (26) (57) (76) (92) (H) and (A) for various operations, which attachments are engaged with the lift member (4) to be accommodated within the space. The load lifting unit is used for the operation of transferring cargo.

An axle shaft, a piston holder, an axle housing and associated components are preliminarily assembled as a unit and the unit is inserted into a differential housing in one of the steps in an assembly line operation for a heavy load vehicle. The axle shaft has a splined portion engaging the gear box and is supported by bearings in the piston holder and axle housing.

A spare fuel tank used for a main fuel tank, being a container with a bottom, having a reasonable volumetric capacity, of vertically elongated shape, and having a spare fuel suction pipe thereinside. It is separately manufactured from the main tank, nevertheless, does not need separate fuel supplying nor specific piping connection with the main fuel tank, owing to its oil tight but detachable securing to the inside of the main fuel tank, by means either of fixing the same to an upper cover plate of the main fuel tank or of fastening the same to a wall of the main fuel tank with suitable fastening means, and to the disposition of a fuel inlet opening for automatical and simultaneous fuel supplying at the time of fuel supplying to the main fuel tank.
