Self-propelled cranes used in industrial materials handling are properly designated as industrial mobile cranes, as distinguished from truck and wagon cranes. They are popularly known in the steel industry as tractor cranes, and are also known as crane trucks, the emphasis being on the vehicle for the reason that many early installations were attachments on motor vehicle trucks. 3, record 1, English, - crane%20truck

Le chariot-grue comprend un châssis automoteur sur pneumatiques à transmission mécanique sur lequel est montée une flèche relevable à vide. Ce châssis supporte, outre le moteur thermique et les organes de translation, un treuil de levage qui, dans la majorité des cas, sert à mettre la flèche dans la position de portée désirée. [...] Le chariot-grue est utilisé quand le chariot à fourche ne peut convenir en raison de l'impossibilité de se servir de palettes [...] 3, record 1, French, - chariot%2Dgrue

Les grues automotrices industrielles ou grues d'atelier. Utilisée particulièrement au soulèvement, au transport, au stockage et au gerbage des charges, ces grues généralement à flèche télescopique possèdent, pour la plupart d'entre elles, des caractéristiques dimensionnelles liées à leur utilisation. Conçues suivant le principe des chariots élévateurs avec des roues porteuses à l'avant et des roues directrices à l'arrière, ces machines doivent travailler dans des locaux souvent encombrés; il leur faut passer dans des allées et des portes étroites avec des virages difficiles et des hauteurs limitées. Toutes ces impositions ont nécessité la création de grues ne possédant aucun dépassement de flèche par rapport au châssis avec des longueurs hors tout souvent inférieures à 4 mètres et une hauteur limitée à 2,60 m pour les passages sous porte. 2, record 1, French, - chariot%2Dgrue
