ABSTRACT:
A tree transporter comprises a plurality of buckets pivotally mounted on a rectangular frame. The frame has two sides and a central beam mounted higher than the sides together with a number of transverse beams so as to form square cells between the sides and the central beam in which the buckets can be received. The buckets are supported for pivotal movement on collars attached to the outer surface of the bucket with the axis of rotation inclined relative to the plane of an open mouth of the bucket so that the axis intersects the side wall of the bucket on one side higher than on the other side. In addition the axis of rotation is arranged diagonally relative to the square cells and inclined upwardly from one side to the higher central beam so that the bucket when it pivots moves from a position where the axis of the bucket points outwardly from the side for loading to a transport position wherein the axis of the bucket lies along the framework.
