A system for loading trucks or containers automatically or semiautomatically with freight units of palletizable or at least regular shape and size

摘要

In a system designed for loading rear door trucks and containers automatically or semiautomatically with units (crates, boxes etc.) of standard size and shape, palletized or otherwise, the various items of handling equipment are associated with a platform (1) adjustable for height and angle; this is positioned automatically and correctly against the door threshold of the loading enclosure (3), whereupon the units (24) are shuttled by suitable conveying mechanisms toward the designated space. The system also comprises automatic fork lifts operating internally of the enclosure, by which the units are arranged and stacked.
