Abstract

The body of a load transport vehicle has a door arrangement which can be moved across an open side (13) of the body. The door arrangement has a door made of interconnected panels (14, 15). The door can be folded upwardly to a retracted position so that the open side (13) of the body is free for loading and unloading. The panels (14, 15) may be hinged to each other and to an edge support (12) at the top of the open side (13) of the body. Upward folding of the door may be achieved by a driven member, such as a chain (58) driven by an electric motor driver (41), which acts on a bottom panel (15) of the door and is assisted by gas struts (25, 40) acting on a top panel (14).
