ABSTRACT:
A container such as a fuel tank pivotally mounted on a vehicle for movement between an operation position adjacent the vehicle and an assembly position remote from said vehicle. The pivotal movement is accomplished by having a support for the container threadably engaged with a screw spindle supported on the vehicle. The support can swing about the screw spindle and also be moved vertically along the axis of the screw spindle by rotating said screw spindle. The vertical movement serves to bring the container in or out of mesh with a lock mechanism which avoids a further pivot movement in the operation position.
