ABSTRACT:
A vehicle is provided with hydraulic mechanism (1,2,3,4) capable of loading a transport frame (6) having at the front end thereof an upstanding member (5) for cooperation with the hydraulic mechanism (1,2,3,4). The transport frame (6) is provided with anchor members (10) which cooperate with hooks (26) and latches (30) to lock the transport frame (6) directly to the main chassis members (7) of the vehicle. The transport frame is also provided at the rear end thereof with a platform (51) which supports a fifth-wheel coupling (55,56,57,58). The platform also supports two ramps (62 and 63) used in loading the frame onto the vehicle. When the transport frame (6) is loaded on to, and locked to, the vehicle, the vehicle can be used to pull a trailer having a dependent king pin capable of being secured in the fifth-wheel coupling.
