ABSTRACT:
A vehicle for loading and transporting heavyweight objects, in particular automotive vehicles, comprises an undercarriage, a loading bridge mounted directly on the undercarriage both longitudinally shiftable and tiltable about the rear portion thereof, and at least one power device engaging, preferably in the vicinity of, the front end of the loading bridge and on the other hand, preferably in the vicinity of, the rear portion of the vehicle undercarriage determining the mutual spacing thereof. The power device is alterable in its length. At least one pivot lever is guided at one end with a slide member in a bridge-stationary slide track and is mounted at its other end pivotally in a fulcrum underneath the effective line of the power device, behind the slide member as viewed in relationship to the direction of travel, at the vehicle undercarriage. The slide track at the front has an abutment which by an engagement with the slide member limits the lengthwise extension of the loading bridge.
