ABSTRACT:
A mechanism for loading and unloading a container onto and from a vehicle comprises a member having one end thereof for releasable connection to the container and the other end thereof carrying pivot means movable in an elongated guide means for connection to the vehicle. The guide means so guide the pivot means so that a first actuator means, which acts on the pivot means, is operable to move the pivot means in, and relatively to, the guide means to move the member and the pivot means from a loaded position to an unloading position. A second actuator means which acts on the member is operable, with the member and the pivot means in the unloading position, to pivot the member relative to the guide means about the pivot means. The member, in moving from the loaded position to the unloading position, moves the container from a position in which the container is mounted on the vehicle for transport thereby to such position that, as the member pivots from the unloading position, the member lifts and unloads the container from the vehicle, the operation of the first and second actuator means being reversible to load the container onto the vehicle.
