Equipment for moving tubular members from a storage rack to an elevated platform floor and back to the storage rack is disclosed. A base-mounted articulated support structure has a pipe trough mounted on top thereof. The support structure elevates the trough using a pair of struts and a plurality of articulated lifting arms mounted between the base and the support structure. Loading arms are secured to a side of the pivotal trough for picking up one tubular member from the rack and moving to the platform floor. Unloading arms detachably securable to the trough facilitate movement of the tubular members from the platform floor onto the rack. |
