ABSTRACT:
Various embodiments are shown and described, each of a vehicle crane unit for loading, unloading, and dumping objects from a vehicle and for moving objects that rest on the vehicle or off of the vehicle. The vehicle crane unit includes a vehicle horizontal base and a vertical frame that extends up from the base. A boom pivots on the vehicle and is held in various desired positions by stops that are attached to the vertical frame. The boom has a pulley wheel that can receive a winch-pulled cable that can be attached to an object or a container. By stopping the boom in various positions and taking in, letting out, or repositioning the cable, the vehicle crane unit pulls and lifts the object or container to a desired location. An optional container is designed to rest on and cooperate with the vehicle crane unit, for dumping contents from the container or for on-loading and off-loading the container with its contents.
