ABSTRACT:
A new and novel transfer device of the type used to move heavy filled bulk containers from a location outside of the transfer device to a position within the transfer device and above a base footprint of the transfer device where the filled bulk container can then be evacuated. The transfer device is constructed so that the frame is not perpendicular to the surface or substrate on which it is positioned. A heavy filled bulk container located outside the frame work of the transfer device can then be lifted by the transfer device without creating overturning and uplifting moments on the transfer device. When the filled bulk container is then moved to a position inside the framework and above the base foot print, the base footprint operates to maintain load stability on the frame of the transfer device.
