Handling system for container with telescopic legs - has vertically movable lateral supports pivoted about aligned horizontal axes to bear on load bed surfaces

摘要

The container is mounted on a lorry and can be inclined. It consists of two lateral supports of the same height and pivoted about aligned horizontal axes. The supports can be raised and lowered and can bear on support surfaces on the vehicle frame. Each support pref. has the form of a circular sector centred on the pivot axis, the circular surface being engageable with a horizontal surface on the frame. An additional rear support can be included and is pivoted to the lower part of the loading frame.
