GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
French term or phrase:chariot porteur
English translation:transfer trolley / transfer car
Entered by: Radu DANAILA

French to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / pyrotechnics
French term or phrase: chariot porteur
This term comes from a 'Dossier d'Interface', in a table of services to be provided by a company in a series of pyrotechnic tests.

"Ensemble de tir
-Spécifications
-Définitions
-Constitution de l'ensemble de tir
--**Chariot porteur**
--Chariot pousseur et propulsion"

My first thought was some type of lifting machinery, but on second thoughts it could be some type of carriage attached to the pyrotechnic device itself, given that it is followed by 'chariot pousseur et propulsion' (which I am about to submit as a seperate question).

Can anyone clarify this for me?

Many TIA,

Vicky
