The traveling mechanism for the industrial vehicle driving in four directions comprises four wheel sets at bottom of the vehicle body, the wheel sets are sequentially connected to form a quadrangle; one wheel set is a rotating wheel set, another wheel set is a reversible directional wheel set, and the axis direction of the rotating wheels is switched between two directions through the rotating action of a rotating shaft of the wheel set; the other two wheel sets are variable-state wheel sets, and the rotating wheel state are switched between a directional state and a follow-up universal state. The present disclosure has simple structure, low cost, good supporting stability, and usage range, usage efficiency and maneuvering capability of the industrial vehicle are facilitated.
