AUTOMATED APPARATUS FOR LOADING AND UNLOADING MOTOR VEHICLES An automated apparatus for loading and unloading motor vehicles, to be positioned between a loading platform and a vehicle positioning region, comprises a frame movable longitudinally to the loading platform, a manipulator-conveyor unit provided with lifting and/or gripping means and arranged on a support element rotatable through at least 180.degree., the manipulator-conveyor unit being extendable so as to be movable to a position above the loading platform and to a position above the load floor of a vehicle, means being provided for correctly aligning the support element with the load floor, a central processor also being connected to the apparatus. Means are associated with the manipulator-conveyor unit for sensing its movement above the support element and are connected to the central processor and to an actuator which correctly positions at least one pair of motorized wheels supporting the manipulator-conveyor unit.
