With Google you could find the answer to this in 5 seconds. I did :)
Shera Lyn Parpia Jun 30, 2008:
but how is this term used? what is the context? I don't think that the pala gommata is part of the brochure!

wheel loader

It has lots of names - take a look at the wikipedia article.
I grew up calling it a front end loader (almost always has wheels).

If the answers you are given don't answer your question, perhaps you haven't phrased you question right.
Had you even thought writing what you did in your note awarding the KudoZ points, the answers would have been completely different!
I would have told you it was a "bucket with a rubber edge". You can find lots of references for Cat/John Deere/Komatsu...
Take the time to ask you question and give some info before you get angry with the answers you are given!
Note from asker:
it IS part of a brochure on which I am working I did find every thing on google but I was hoping you could find something shorter anyway it is NOT referred to somethingh wheeled or something tyred BUT to something with A PLASTIC EDGE BASCKET which I did choose because it waS THE most CORRECT

Note from asker:
yes sorry you are right my question wasn't complete there are several types of vehicles to load various materials which are similar, in this case the translation is about transporting organic waste to composting plants
