ABSTRACT:
A lift truck vehicle suitable for use in ultra narrow aisle applications includes a pair of combined side frame and outrigger members interconnecting front and rear body portions of the vehicle. The combined side frame and outrigger members provide both structural integrity to the vehicle body as well as serve to stabilize the vehicle when loading and unloading loads on opposite sides of the vehicle. The combined side frame and outrigger members are generally elongated and have a pair of flanges at opposite ends thereof including shafts thereon rotatively journaled into the front and rear body portions. A linear motor interconnecting corresponding flanges of the combination side frame and outrigger members provides motive power for rotating members from their roading or travelling position away from contact with the ground support surface into their stabilizing position in contact with the ground support surface. When contacting the ground support surface, the side frame and outrigger members are conveniently low in profile so that the vehicle carriage and forks may be lowered to handle loads on common type pallets at floor level.
