ABSTRACT:
A vehicle-based equipment handling device is constructed by installing tracks into the vehicle along which a carriage slides. A yoke is attached to the carriage at pivot points and is caused to pivot by the action of an extension cylinder. The yoke engages the equipment at its approximate center of gravity to allow easier positioning of the equipment. When the yoke has been actuated by the piston to lift the equipment, the carriage slides along the tracks to load the equipment into the vehicle. One particularly useful application of the equipment handling device is as a loading and unloading device for a portable x-ray machine.
