摘要

A device to facilitate de loading and unloading of the passengers luggage into and from an aircraft hold which device comprises a wheeled truck provided with a conventional elevating conveyor at the upper end of which a platform is attached which can be introduced into the aircraft hold through a door which is located midway of the hold compartment. The platform is wrapped up on a telescopic outer frame which is slidably wrapped up on a middle frame which is slidably wrapped up on an inner frame which is stationary with respect to the aircraft hold being firmly connected to the wheeled truck. The passenger luggage pieces are successively conveyed by turns along the conventional conveyor and when arrived at the upper end thereof they are discharged on said platform and stopped at the center thereof. The platform is then moved forward and rearward on the aircraft luggage compartment at the command of an operator which stands into the luggage compartment and controls the travel of said platform to stop it where there is a place for stowing the luggage. The outer and middle frames which move the upstanding platform along the aircraft luggage compartment with respect to the inner frame are controlled by four pneumatic rodless pistons.
