An intermodal container tipping apparatus includes an upper support structure configured to be releasably mounted to a container transfer device, such as a reach stacker or crane, and a second support structure configured to be releasably mounted to an intermodal container. The lower supports structure includes at least one arcuate beam. The at least one arcuate beam attaches the lower support structure to the upper support structure. Movement of the at least one arcuate beam relative to the upper support structure causes tipping of the lower support structure and any load attached thereto while substantially maintaining a relative position of the center of gravity of the load.

La présente invention concerne un appareil permettant de faire basculer un conteneur intermodal, comprenant une structure de support supérieure configurée de façon à être montée de manière amovible à un dispositif de transfert de conteneur, comme un gerbeur ou une grue, et une seconde structure de support configurée pour être montée de manière amovible à un conteneur intermodal. La structure de support inférieure comprend au moins une poutre arquée. Ladite au moins une poutre arquée relie la structure de support inférieure à la structure de support supérieure. Le déplacement de ladite au moins une poutre arquée par rapport à la structure de support supérieure entraîne le basculement de la structure de support inférieure et de toute charge qui lui est attachée tout en maintenant sensiblement une position relative du centre de gravité de la charge.
