ABSTRACT:
A semi-automatic lifting device for operation by a single operator for complete control over the operation of raising pallets loaded with cases of empty bottles and the like. At least one work station is provided, but preferably two such stations with the operator located centrally therebetween, with foot controls at the operator's position for operation of hydraulic or other power-type lifts for each work station. The pallets loaded with cases of bottles are lifted to a convenient heighth for the operator who then may transfer the cases to an adjacent associated conveyor system by the operator simply sliding the cases of bottles onto the case conveyor, thereby, eliminating most bottle breakage and manual lifting of the cases. The system will increase productivity and decrease chances of back injuries by eliminating case and bottle lifting.
