A lifting mast of an industrial truck includes two vertical rails at a distance from each other that are connected with one another by two cross members, wherein the lifting mast, to raise and lower a lifting carriage on the vertical rails, is provided with a lifting cylinder device which is supported on the bottom cross member, wherein the lifting cylinder device is in an operational connection with a lifting arrangement that is fastened with a first end to the lifting carriage, is fastened with a second end to the lifting mast, and is reversed on the lifting cylinder device. The second end of the lifting arrangement is fastened to the bottom cross member, or the lifting arrangement is fastened with the second end to the additional cross member, wherein at least one traction device that transmits a tractive force connects the additional cross member with the bottom cross member.

Lifting mast of an industrial truck

An industrial truck includes a tiltable lifting mast (), a first tilting cylinder (), and a second tilting cylinder (). The two tilting cylinders () are of double-acting design and are connected hydraulically in parallel. Two hydraulic lines () are provided for the purpose of supplying hydraulic fluid to the tilting cylinders (). In order to simplify the design of the industrial truck, according to the invention the hydraulic lines () open out at the cylinder base of the first tilting cylinder () and/or at a component (joint eye) adjacent thereto, the cylinder base and/or the component (joint eye) being formed at least partially as a hydraulic distributor.
