摘要

The invention relates to a lorry (1) for lifting, lowering and transporting containers (2) to be coupled thereto, preferably a refuse collecting vehicle with interchangeable containers, having a pivot frame (6) which can be pivoted by means of a hydraulic piston/cylinder unit about a transverse axis (8) located in the rear region of the chassis of the lorry and having a carriage (11) which is mounted on said pivot frame, can be moved reciprocally by means of a hydraulic piston/cylinder unit (12, 13) and can be coupled by a hook (16) to the container (2) and by means of which the container (2) can be moved on the pivot frame (6). In order to achieve the object of providing a lorry of the type specified at the beginning, with which transport containers can be lowered onto trailers without additional transportation devices and/or lifting mechanisms, and can be taken off the latter again, a device for transferring a container to a container coupled to the lorry and for transferring a container from the trailer to the lorry is provided having the following features: initially, the trailer (4) is provided with a trailer carriage which can be moved on the latter in the longitudinal direction by drive means, on which carriage the rear end of the container (2) which is pushed over said carriage can be locked. In addition, the pivot frame (6) is provided with drive means and transmission means by means of which it can be pivoted through approximately 180 DEG .
