    摘要: The invention relates to a logistics system having a large vehicle, a small vehicle and a container. According to the invention, in order to allow containers to be used on different vehicles in an improved manner, the container can be received, with a long side oriented along a transverse direction of the large vehicle, on said large vehicle and, interacting with same via a first movement arrangement, can be moved along a longitudinal direction of the large vehicle, said container can furthermore be received, with the long side oriented along a longitudinal direction of the small vehicle, on said small vehicle and, interacting with same via a second movement arrangement, can be moved along the longitudinal direction of the small vehicle, and said container has multiple legs which, in order for the container to be received on a vehicle, are adjustable from a deployed position into a retracted position.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method of reloading consignments, in the case of which consignments are transported between at least one logistics center and at least one end customer by means of at least one large vehicle and at least one small vehicle, which may be at least two-axle road vehicles, wherein the small vehicle is electrically operated and has a smaller track width and a lower load capacity than the large vehicle. In order to enable efficient logistical linking of end customers in urban areas, it is provided that at least the following steps may be carried out: reloading consignments between a large vehicle and the logistics center, performing a journey of the large vehicle between the logistics center and a reloading location, reloading consignments between the large vehicle and a small vehicle at the reloading location, performing a journey of the small vehicle between the reloading location and at least one end customer, and reloading consignments between the small vehicle and the at least one end customer.

    摘要: The invention relates to a railing arrangement for a loading platform of a utility vehicle, which railing arrangement, in a state of use, extends distally away from a loading opening of the utility vehicle in a longitudinal direction, having two railing units, the proximal ends of which are fastenable to both sides of the loading opening in a transverse direction and the distal ends of which are fastenable in the region of a distal end edge of the loading platform, such that at least one railing unit is inclined toward the transverse direction in relation to the longitudinal direction and the two railing units define a walkable area that becomes narrower, in the transverse direction, toward the distal end edge.
