Abstract
A truck is provided for transporting and lifting heavy metallurgical vessels from one place to another. The truck combines two functions ordinarily provided by two different trucks, in that the truck of the invention lifts and/or removes the vessel from its tilting mount for relining and when replacing it on the mount also refits the bottom plate and cover onto the vessel, the latter function usually being carried out by a separate truck. The arrangement includes a separate bottom plate carrying device configured to be positioned on the truck. The carrying device is positioned to be non-displaceable on the lifting mechanism and to be, when thus placed, subject to the centering and lifting mechanisms of the truck of the invention.
