LOAD CARRIER WITH DUAL PIN SUSPENSION

An overhead trolley suspends a load carrier which is provided with two pintles spaced apart from each other longitudinally of the load carrier and spaced inwardly from the ends of the load carrier. Accordingly, the center of gravity of a load carried by the load carrier can be located between said p...

Zusammenfassung:An overhead trolley suspends a load carrier which is provided with two pintles spaced apart from each other longitudinally of the load carrier and spaced inwardly from the ends of the load carrier. Accordingly, the center of gravity of a load carried by the load carrier can be located between said pins and an end of the load carrier. The overhead trolley has a supporting surface which receives and supports the pintles. There is an open space above the supporting member above each of the pintles so that each pintle can be lifted off of its supporting surface, whereby an unbalanced load in said load carrier causes the load carrier to tilt so that it is supported by the pintle which is nearest the load center of gravity, thereby reducing the tilting moment of the load carrier in response to an unbalanced load.
