ABSTRACT:
A battery mover for use in horizontally moving batteries into and out of battery compartments in battery powered vehicles and battery powered machinery. The battery mover includes a horizontal support frame having a longitudinal axis, a plurality of rotatable elements positioned along the longitudinal axis for permitting movement of a battery disposed on the frame along the longitudinal axis, a vertical section joined to the horizontal frame, apparatus for aligning the frame with respect to a battery compartment and for preventing relative movement between the battery compartment and the frame during movement of a battery into and out of the battery compartment, a winch for reeling and unreeling a cable, a pusher slidably mounted in the horizontal support frame to permit movement between first and second positions, an extender joined to the pusher which may be positioned to project past the pusher toward the first longitudinal position, apparatus for selectively coupling the cable to the pusher for causing a battery to be moved along the horizontal support frame toward the first position during rotation of the winch and apparatus for selectively coupling the cable to a battery for moving a battery along the horizontal support frame toward the second position.
