The apparatus of the present invention uses fluid motor driven rotating hooks mounted within the rear opening of a refuse collection vehicle. These hooks grasp and lift dumpsters by their trunnion bars and pull them into the vehicle. Following the initial hook motion, a lever pivots upwardly to invert the receptacle and empty its contents. In another feature, there is provided an accessory for attachment to the rotating hooks for grasping and dumping smaller containers. This device uses a cam-actuated mechanism that operates during initial rotation of the hooks. The cam actuates linkage which grasps the lower handle of the container and the complete rotation of the hooks inverts the container.

Cette invention concerne un appareil à crochets pivotants entraîné par moteur hydraulique et monté dans l'ouverture arrière d'un camion à ordures. Ces crochets soulèvent les bennes à ordures par leurs tourillons pour ensuite les entraîner à l'intérieur de la caisse du camion. Après le déplacement initial des crochets, un levier pivote vers le haut pour renverser la benne et la vider de son contenu. L'appareil est également équipé d'un accessoire à monter sur le crochets pour la manutention de contenants à ordures plus petits que les bennes précitées. Cet accessoire fait appel à un mécanisme à came qui intervient lors du pivotement initial des crochets pour actionner une tringlerie qui saisit la poignée inférieure du contenant dont l'inversion est automatique en fin de pivotement des crochets.
