Abstract

A lifting and transporting device for lifting a load and transporting the same transversely to the lifting direction includes a frame (2) which for picking up and lifting a load (15) extends around a load space (13) of specified size and a holder (3) for holding the load (15). The holder (3) is movable in lifting direction (9) relative to the frame (2), and includes a hoist (4) which is attached to the frame (2) transversely to the lifting direction (9) beside the load space (13), and includes a portion (25) extending on the load space side thereof, to which the holder (3) is attached, and which is equipped for lifting and lowering the holder (3) with the load (15) attached thereto. The frame (2) is mounted on a first and a second support bearing (5, 6) whose support directions (5a, 6a) each extend perpendicular to the transport direction (10) and at a specified angle to each other, and which both in lifting direction (9) and perpendicular to the transport direction (10) and to the lifting direction (9) have a distance to each other. The support bearings (5, 6) include sliding members or rollers (32, 38) which can be shifted or rolled off in transport direction (10).
