ABSTRACT:
A trailer carrier includes a tractor-drawn, fore and aft elongated bed supported on ground engaging wheels transversely spaced to conform to furrow center lines in a row crop field being mechanically harvested. The bed is tiltable between a first position wherein the after end of the bed engages the ground to afford an on-ramp and an off-ramp for a roadworthy trailer and a second position wherein the bed is substantially horizontal while the carrier transports the superposed trailer alongside an operating harvester to receive the crop being harvested.
Projecting forwardly from the carrier is a fixed upper frame carrying a winch to facilitate trailer movement onto and off the carrier and a pivoted lower frame for connection to the tractor, a jack being interposed between the upper and lower frames to move the bed between the first and second positions.
