Abstract

Frame structure for a fork lift truck includes a standardized steering axle assembly provided with a pair of longitudinally spaced pivots, which define a longitudinal swing axis of the axle assembly. The frame structure comprises a rigid rear frame sub-assembly including a horizontal plate member provided on its lower surface with a pair of projections defining recesses for receiving the pivots of the axle assembly. The horizontal plate member is integral with a pair of forwardly projecting mounting plate members whose front end portions are longitudinally adjusted along side surfaces of box section members provided for side panels of the frame structure, and then welded to the box section members. The rear frame sub-assembly is standardized and can be used to manufacture various types of frame structures having different wheel bases.
