ABSTRACT:
A cargo handling assembly for use in an overland vehicle including a base frame which is capable of being mounted on the floor of the overland vehicle. A pair of extension members is individually borne by the base members. The exterior members are moveable along a predetermined path of travel from a first, stowed position, to a second, deployed position. A pair of carriages is slidably borne by the individual extension members. The carriages are moveable along a path of travel from a first position, where the respective carriages are located in spaced relation relative to the distal end of the respective extension members, to a second position, where the carriages are located near the distal end of the respective extension members. A cargo support assembly having a top end is rotatably connected to each individual extension member at a single pivot point. The top end of the cargo support assembly is rotatably moveable along an arcuately shaped path of travel from a first position, where the cargo support assembly is disposed in spaced relation relative to the surface of the earth, to a second position, where the cargo support assembly is disposed in an orientation which facilitates the removal of cargo from the cargo support assembly.
