ABSTRACT:
Difficulties in handling drums when transporting them from one location to another may be avoided through use of an apparatus for transporting the drums that includes a cart frame (12) having spaced side members (13) and (14) extending to an open side. The spacing between the side members (13), (14) is such as to allow a drum (84) to be transported to fit between the side members (13), (14) by advancing the open side toward the drum (84). Wheels (18), (22) are located on the cart frame (10) and a lifting frame (12) is mounted on the cart frame (10) for elevating movement thereon. The lifting frame is open on one side to receive a drum to be transported and includes a lifting side (80) adapted to engage a rib (82) on a drum (84). Grapple arms (68) are located on the lifting frame (12) for engaging a drum (84) and holding the drum (84) against the lifting side (80). Lift assemblies (40) are provided for lifting the lifting frame (12) away from the cart frame (10).
