A transverse cradle assembly comprises at least one pair of a set of cradle assemblies. The set of assemblies is mirror imaged. Each assembly comprises an upper cradle and a lower cradle having a slot therein for mutually and opposedly securing a slidable locking block having an incline. The upper and lower cradles are pivotally joined together at one end. As a device is loaded onto the set of assemblies, the slidable locking block moves along the slots to correspond with the loading of the device. When suitable weight is applied to the ends of the upper cradles, the upper cradle slot engages the incline on the block thus locking it into place. The cradle assembly is secured to a mounting slide and may further be secured onto a platform if desired.
