ABSTRACT:
A side lifting apparatus is disclosed for detachable connection to a container from the side, arranged to be supported by the lifting stand of the fork truck to be raised and lowered along said lifting stand. The side lifting apparatus comprises a horizontal main girder and two vertical columns directed upwardly from the girder and rigidly mounted to its ends, each of said columns carrying a bearing housing having a downwardly directed locking pin arranged turnably in the bearing housing to be brought into locking engagement with a top corner fitting of the container. Each of said columns comprises an upper member carrying said locking pin, and a lower member rigidly mounted to the horizontal main girder. The lower and upper members of each column are axially displaceable in relation to each other in order to alter the distance of the locking pin to the main girder. When handling an inclined container the locking pins are thereby arranged, by extending the columns, to be set at different levels to each other, said difference in levels corresponding to the inclination of the container.
