A plate carrier for mounting at the upper end of the upper element of the central pole of a “plate hoist” device or the like comprises at least one longitudinal central body having two substantially rectangular plates separated by three longitudinal walls forming at least two central sheaths. Each central sheath accommodates a generally T-shaped transverse arm which includes a longitudinal median branch slidably mounted in a sheath and a transverse tubular part welded to the free end of the median branch. The transverse tubular part extends substantially in the plane of the central body.

1. Plate carrier for mounting at an upper end of an upper element of a central pole of a plate hoist device, comprising at least one longitudinal central body having two substantially rectangular plates separated by three longitudinal walls forming at least two central sheaths, each central sheath accommodating a generally T-shaped transverse arm which includes a longitudinal median branch slidably mounted in the sheath and a transverse tubular part welded to a free end of the median branch, said transverse tubular part extending substantially in a plane of the central body and further comprising two curved arms extending along the central body, thereunder, on either side of a longitudinal axis of said central body, wherein said curved arms are connected in a central part thereof by a spacer bearing a flywheel extending between the spacer and the central body. 2. Plate carrier as claimed in claim 1, wherein each median branch comprises a finger engaging with a spring and arranged to be inserted into apertures provided along the median branch in order to adjust length of the longitudinal median branch of the transverse arms projecting from the sheaths as a function of dimensions of a plate to be carried. 3. Plate carrier as claimed in claim 1, wherein at least one of the transverse tubular parts of the transverse arms comprises stops extending orthogonally relative to said transverse tubular parts and to the median branches. 4. Plate carrier as claimed in claim 3, wherein said stops are positioned symmetrically on either side of the longitudinal median branch, in proximity to the free ends of the transverse tubular part. 5. Plate carrier as claimed in claim 1, wherein the two substantially rectangular plates separated by the three longitudinal walls of the longitudinal central body forming the two central sheaths also form first and second peripheral grooves. 6. Plate carrier as claimed in claim 5, further comprising two transverse arms articulated respectively around an axis rigidly connected to free ends of the central body in the first peripheral groove and two transverse arms articulated respectively around an axis rigidly connected to the free ends of the central body in the second peripheral groove. 7. Plate carrier as claimed in claim 6, wherein the plates project from the peripheral grooves, in the free ends of the central body, to form flanges wherein curvilinear apertures are provided which form cam tracks wherein cam-forming lugs, rigidly connected to the arms move so that said arms move from a foldaway position wherein the arms extend in the peripheral grooves, respectively to an unfolded position wherein said arms extend orthogonally to the central body. 8. Plate carrier as claimed in claim 6, wherein a first pair of the arms is shorter in length than half the length of the central body. 9. Plate carrier as claimed in claim 8, wherein another pair of the arms is substantially equal in length to half the length of the central body. 10. Plate carrier as claimed in claim 9, wherein each arm of the another pair comprises at a free end thereof a stop extending orthogonally to the arm and to the plates forming the central body. 11. Plate carrier as claimed in claim 10, wherein edges of the plates comprise in a median part thereof a substantially rectangular cutout, substantially matching a depth of the second peripheral groove, said cutout allowing the stops which project from the free ends of the arms to pass when said arms are folded away in said second peripheral groove.
