A vehicle has container handling apparatus at each end. This apparatus has a pedestal with track arms which with the pedestal form a lateral trackway on which a carriage can run, for lifting, traversing and lowering a container. Each track arm in the operative position is supported by an over-center toggle-jointed arm. The toggle arms are moved by relatively small and relatively low pressure hydraulic rams. In the over-center position of the arms each is locked by a short shaft mounted by the lower toggle joint and engaging with an edge of the upper toggle joint. |
