ABSTRACT:
An articulated tractor and load-carrying trailer mine shuttle car has a low profile, the tractor having a cockpit in which the operator sits transversely of the tractor and with his head above the top of the tractor so that by turning his head he can look forwardly and backwardly, the shuttle car being designed to operate in both directions. To protect the operator from falling pieces of minerals or coal, a transversely sliding canopy is provided the tractor, the canopy being spaced above the tractor's top to form front and back spaces through which the operator can look, and being transversely slidable to permit the operator to get into and out of the cockpit by sliding the canopy from over the top of the cockpit.
