ABSTRACT:
A fork lift attachment system is adapted to be mounted to a standard fork lift truck utilized for vertically lifting and lowering a container in a reversible manner. A modified container is utilized in conjunction with the fork lift attachment system where the container includes a pair of transversely displaced channel members securely fixed to opposing transverse side panels of the container. The attachment system includes a releasable mounting mechanism for insertion within the channel members of the modified container for mounting the container to the fork lift attachment system. A rotative displacement mechanism allows for the container to be rotated about a first axis line extending in a direction substantially normal to a vertical displacement direction subsequent to the container being mounted on the fork lift attachment system. Thus, the attachment system allows for both vertical reversible movement of the modified container while allowing independent rotation of the container about axis normal to the vertical displacement direction.
