Förfarande och anordning vid sidlyftok för hantering av på varandra stående containrar

摘要

The present invention relates to a side-lift yoke for handling two mutually stacked containers from respective sides thereof. The side-lift yoke includes a first upper pair of locking devices (6) which are intended to engage with locking openings (14) in the lower corners of the upper container (7) on the respective side of the container, and a second pair of lower locking devices (6) which are intended to engage with locking openings (14) in the upper corners of the lower container (7) on respective sides of the container. The upper pair of locking devices and the lower pair of locking devices can be movably withdrawn from the plane extending through the support surfaces (5) of the side-lift yoke that coact with the lower container (17), independently of the other pair.
