ABSTRACT:
A pipe trough for transporting pipe between upper and lower positions. A pipe carrier having a V-shaped cross-section is received within an elongate trough body having a V-shaped cross-section. The pipe carrier is longitudinally slidable along the trough and is constructed to receive one end of a pipe. A roller is mounted at one end of the trough body for supporting the other end of a pipe received within the carrier. A hydraulic motor is provided for selectively moving the carrier along the length of the trough body. Openings formed crosswise of the trough are distributed along its length. Each opening includes a pipe unloading arm having a pivotal connection to the trough at one side. A ram positioned beneath the arm and having one end pivotally attached to the arm and the other end pivotally attached to the trough is provided for raising and lowering the arm to unload the pipe from the trough. A guard extends downwardly from either side of each unloading arm to conceal the ram when it is in its extended condition.
