forklift and shovel loader
Explanation:
人们常常混用钗车和铲车，但是英文又分得非常详细。在没有看到照片的情况下，不容易断定究竟你指的是哪一类。

如果一定要作出区分，我的理解如下：

叉车因该翻译成大家所建议的forklift或者fork truck。其特点是前面的插件是两个或三个爪子的叉子，可以水平地插入货箱的底部，然后提升，接着搬运到另一个地方，主要用在仓库里的货物搬运。

钗车的照片：

铲车的前面是一个货斗，把土货沙石产起来，运送到另一个地方。英文是shovel loader,好像还有front end loader。
铲车的照片：

而Shovel Truck是这个样子的：

下面这个网站介绍了把叉车叉子插件换成货斗，使用了shovel loader这个词。我认为这就是你所说的“铲车”(shovel loader), 我想英文还有front end loader也属于此类车辆：
