ABSTRACT:
A device for sidetracking a truck, which basically comprises a movable actuator element operable in a direction to and from the truck, a carriage connected to the movable actuator element, on which the truck is to be placed, the carriage means being provided, on an upper side thereof, with a lifting element for raising the truck so as to raise the truck from a floor, and a stationary actuator element connected to the movable actuator element, the stationary actuator element being extendable and retractable in a direction along the direction wherein the movable actuator means is operated with respect to the truck. With such a simple structure, the truck may be sidetracked, even in a direction orthogonal with the path along which the truck moves.
The carriage may have a storage space defined therein and the stationary actuator element may include a storage bracket, so that when in no use, all the elements may be bodily or partially juxtaposed together in such storage elements, thereby making smaller and compact the body of the device.
