ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for handling elongated objects such as pieces of wood includes at least one elongated flexible member for forming the bottom and sides of an object-handling compartment having a longitudinal dimension and a transverse dimension, the flexible member having a first end and a free end; a coiling device associated with the first end of the flexible member for winding up and unwinding the flexible member; an attaching device at the free end of the flexible member; an attaching mechanism operable for selectively being connected to and disconnected from the attaching device whereby when the attaching device and the attaching mechanism are connected, the flexible member can be suspended from its ends to form the compartment and whereby the attaching device can be disconnected from the attaching mechanism to loosen the flexible member to enable emptying of the compartment; and a device arranged after loosening of the flexible member to introduce the flexible member in the attaching mechanism so as to bring the attaching device by winding of the flexible member onto the coiling means, to retaining engagement with the attaching mechanism.
