ABSTRACT:
By means of multi-member, spreadable righting assemblies, a supporting area can be enlarged in connection with a rightable drop unit, the torque required for righting can be reduced, and the stability can be enhanced. In order to provide that a base of each righting assembly does perform the desired, defined movement, at least one guide member (for example a parallel guide means) is included. The afore-mentioned improvements can be attained practically without an increase in the volume or in the weight of the drop unit.
