    摘要: A method of operating a construction machine that includes a base, support arms each pivotally coupled to the base, and a plurality of wheel assemblies each coupled to the one of the support arms, the method including, in a transport mode of the construction machine, turning a wheel of each of the wheel assemblies, independently from a wheel of another of the wheel assemblies, to a toe out orientation. The method also includes driving each support arm to a deployed condition of the support arm in an operational mode of the construction machine. Driving each support arm to the deployed condition causes the distal ends of each of the support arms to move away from one another and outwardly from the base. The method also includes locking each support arm in the deployed condition and controlling steering of each wheel in the operational mode of the construction machine.

    摘要: An expandable pallet jack device is provided. The device is comprised of a frame with two adjustable forks that can move along the frame to accommodate pallets and items of various sizes. Each fork has a textured top surface to prevent slipping and wheels for easy mobility. The device's width and height can be adjusted using arms, which may operate through manual pumping or electronic buttons. Additionally, rear walls attached to the forks can be spaced apart with an adjustable connecting member for added support, enhancing the device's adaptability for transporting a wide size of items.

    摘要: A multifunctional lifting vehicle includes a frame, a telescopic arm having an attachment for mounting a piece of equipment, a drive system for operating the arm carrying the equipment, and a control system including a human-machine interface (HMI) device. The control system is programmed to determine a load diagram of the vehicle according to the type of equipment, and if the equipment connected to the arm belongs to a set of predetermined equipment stored in a memory of the control system. The controls system is also programmed for: detecting a new equipment connected to the attachment and sending a non-recognition signal, if the new equipment is not part of the set of predetermined equipment, displaying on the HMI a manual selection menu to select parameters of the new equipment, determining a new load diagram of the vehicle defined as a function of the parameters, and viewing the new load diagram.
