Provided is a vehicle that elevates a working beam installed between a pair of booms with a working beam elevating unit and can ensure the area of a load receiving surface where a load is loaded. The working beam elevating unit is received in a working beam and one end of a chain is fixed to a boom. Therefore, the working beam is moved up/down by loosening and retracting the chain. Therefore, as the working beam elevating unit is installed at the working beam, it is not necessary to ensure a space for installing the working beam on a vehicle body. Therefore, it is correspondingly possible to enlarge the space (area of the load receiving surface) on the vehicle for loading a load.

Vehicle elevating a working beam with respect to booms

There is provided a vehicle which can stably load or unload a long heavy load and lower a height of a working space necessary for loading or unloading the weight body. The loading/unloading apparatus suspends and maintains a load in a working beam installed between a pair of booms and rotates the pair of booms toward the left or right direction of a vehicle body, such that the load is unloaded from the vehicle body in a construction field or loaded from the construction field onto the vehicle body. Thus, the height of the working space necessary when the load is loaded or unloaded can be reduced as compared with a crane structure for loading and unloading the load by the fluctuation of a boom.

Vehicle

Travel devices for a transport vehicle are arranged in a longitudinal direction and a width direction of a loading platform to allow traveling of the loading platform. In this travel device, an arm includes an upper end turnably supported at a lower portion of the loading platform. The arm includes a lower end where an axle box is supported swingably in up and down directions. A wheel has a mid-plane that intersects with a swing plane of an axle shaft disposed at the axle box, and is supported at the axle shaft. Accordingly, this ensures a small vehicle width Lof the transport vehicle.

When the load factor of a loading/unloading apparatus reaches a second reference value that is smaller in load factor than the first reference value, the operation speed of the loading/unloading apparatus becomes a reduction state. It is possible to make load vibration difficult to be generated in a load. Further, fine adjustment of the manipulation becomes easy, such that it is possible to prevent the load factor from reaching the first reference value due to careless manipulation of the operator. Even if the load factor reaches the first reference value, the operation speed of the loading/unloading apparatus has been reduced, such that it is possible to prevent load vibration of the load W when stopping.
