ABSTRACT:
Amphibious landing stages or heavy loads are moved over the ground on systems of shoes. A landing stage comprises two port and starboard sets of legs fitted with shoes, which are themselves fitted with soles. Jacks are provided, to enable the sliding of a shoe on its sole, when the sole is applied to the ground, and to enable the reverse motion when the sole is raised. Other jacks either raise the legs or lower them. The legs are lodged inside lockers or wells by a simple locking device which also allows them to be removed. The stage is usable for temporary industrial installations, for wharves or jetties, serving for the displacement of very heavy loads.
