Abstract:
A hydraulically actuated mobile carrier frame wraps around a storage container of standard size and lifts the container from the ground onto a transport vehicle. The carrier frame subsequently returns the container to the ground. The carrier frame stays with the vehicle. The carrier frame can be expanded transversely to clear the vehicle for loading and unloading, then contracted into notches in the vehicle platform to be releasably locked to the vehicle for over the road transport.
