ABSTRACT:
An improvement in scrapper type vehicle, for handling junk cars and the like, having a frame mounted on wheels and having a prime mover powering the vehicle, characterized by a pair of beams having their inner ends pivotally attached to the frame at a pair of respective first points for pivotal movement about the first transverse, horizontal axis thereat; a lifting fork pivotally attached to the main beams at their respective outer ends at a pair of respective second points and having lift prongs adapted to load the junk cars onto a transport vehicle; elevating rams connected with the main beams and the frame for elevating the junk cars; and load fork tilting rams attached to the main frame at a pair of respective third points for pivotal movement about a second transverse, horizontal axis thereat. The lift fork tilting rams are attached to the lift fork at a pair of respective fourth points. The respective first and third points are disposed vertically with respect to each other in the same respective directions that the second and fourth points are disposed with respect to each other when the lift fork prongs are neutrally tilted, or substantially horizontal such that the lift fork can be moved from ground level to maximum height with the neutral tilt maintained by only raising the outer ends of the main beams.
