<p>An article handling system for trucks or tractor-drawn trailers which will deliver an article, such as a palletized load, to the rear opening of the truck from a designated position thereon without having to remove other containers from the truck. The system has a rectangular mobile load containing unit and a generally rectangular stationary load containing unit, with first and second conveyor means for moving loads in a rectangular path within the confines of each of the units respectively. A selectively usable connecting conveyor operably connects the first and second conveyor means whereby loads may be moved from one unit to the other in a single enlarged rectangular path spanning both units.</p> |
