ABSTRACT:
A system for transporting and handling airborne cargo containers is disclosed. The system utilizes a low profile vehicle having mounted thereon a motorized height-adjustable roller bed capable of side loading cargo containers, having a stand which can be mounted on the roller bed and which has legs that reach the ground when the bed is lowered and having a slave support pallet which attaches to the bottom of a typical light weight airborne cargo container to give it the necessary structural rigidity and strength to be handled by surface borne cargo handlers, for example, a forklift. The slave pallet is adapted to be mounted on the stand and has a lattice grid which allows the rollers of the motorized roller bed to protrude therethrough and engage the bottom of the airborne cargo container, enabling the transfer of the container from and to the slave pallet stand and transporter vehicle combination.
