The present invention relates to a terminal (1) for loading cars (6) with containers (7) and/or unloading cars (6) which are laden with containers (7). The terminal (1) comprises a drive-on and/or drive-off section and a loading and/or unloading platform (4, 5) which is arranged along and adjacent to the said drive-on and/or drive-off section and is at a higher level than the said section. Slots (50) which open towards the drive-on and/or drive-off section are provided in the loading and/or unloading platform (4, 5), and the distance between these slots (50) is less than the length of a container (7) to be loaded or unloaded. Each slot (50) is also provided with a beam-like support (52), which can be displaced in the longitudinal direction of the slot (50) between a position in which it is essentially retracted into the loading and unloading platform (4, 5) and a position in which it projects by essentially the width of a car (6) to be loaded or unloaded. The terminal (1) according to the invention can also be used as a terminal for putting containers which stand on folding legs down flat on a platform.

La présente invention concerne un terminal (1) de chargement de conteneurs (7) sur des wagons (6) et/ou de déchargement de wagons (6) portant des conteneurs (7). Ce terminal (1) comprend une section de roulage direct ainsi qu'une plate-forme de chargement et/ou déchargement (4, 5), laquelle est disposée le long de la section de roulage et ou adjacente à celle-ci et est située à un niveau plus haut que la section de roulage. Des gorges (50) ouvertes en direction de la section de roulage sont ménagées dans la plate-forme de chargement et/ou déchargement (4, 5) et la distance entre ces gorges (50) est inférieure à la longueur d'un conteneur (7) à charger ou décharger. Chaque gorge (50) est également dotée d'un support de type poutre (52), que l'on peut déplacer dans le sens de la longueur de la gorge (50), entre une position dans laquelle ce support est essentiellement rétracté dans la plate-forme de chargement et/ou déchargement (4, 5) et une position dans laquelle il saille d'une longueur représentant essentiellement la largueur d'un wagon (6) à charger et/ou décharger. On peut également utiliser le terminal (1) de l'invention en tant que terminal pour mettre à plat, sur une plate-forme, des conteneurs reposant sur des pieds pliants.
