ABSTRACT:
A tilting and lifting apparatus for vehicle bodies for the ergonomically favorable preparation of batches of bodies in the series assembly of vehicles comprises a separate tilting device and a lifting device operable independently of the tilting device. The tilting device includes a swivelling frame which on the tilting side is swivellably guided on a pair of horizontally extending guide paths and on the lifting side on two vertically extending lifting pillars. The vehicle body is fastened rigidly on, and at a distance from, this swivelling frame, which is made as flat as possible. For the purpose of lifting this tilting device, two scissors-type lifting apparatus are disposed beneath the tilting device. The entire arrangement for the independent raising and lowering and the tilting of the body is mounted on a flat, rectangular platform on which it is possible to walk and which, in plan view, projects beyond the vehicle body to the extent of a gangway width.
