Abstract
An apparatus (10) for transporting a load, in particular for transporting a container, particularly of the gantry type, includes an electrical power user element (30a, 30b, 30c, 30d, 32a) which has a respective control element (30′a, 30′b, 30′c, 30′d, 32′a), and an element (34, 36) for supplying electrical power to the user element (30a, 30b, 30c, 30d, 32a). The element for supplying electrical power includes at least an internal combustion engine (34) and an element (36) for transforming the mechanical power generated by the internal combustion engine into electrical power to be supplied to the user element. Advantageously, there are elements which allow a change in the operating speed of the internal combustion engine (34) according to the power required by the user element.
