ABSTRACT:
A ferris wheel type container positioning mechanism having a ferris wheel arrangement carrying three carriages equally spaced thereon. The three carriages are pivotably attached between a pair of rotatably driven wheels and traverse a circular path during a first portion of its total path and traverse a linear path when being displaced adjacent to the floor. Rollers are provided on the bottom of the carriages to facilitate their linear displacements. The container platforms of the carriages may include a turn table and/or a tilt top to provide the best ergonomic positioning of the container for access by the worker.
