Vehicle mounted container handling devices including a rotating swivel mount (220) and an articulated arm (230) connected to the swivel mount are disclosed. The swivel mount includes a housing operable to rotate about a shaft in a first plane. The articulated arm is attached at one end to the housing and disposed to pivot in a second plane which intersects the first plane. A grasping device (232) is pivotally connected to the free end of the articulated arm for pivoting in the second plane. In operation, with the grasping device opened, the articulated arm is extended to reach out toward a container of interest. The swivel mount is operated to pivot the articulated arm as required for the grasping device to engage the container. The articulated arm is operated further to lift and dump the container in the vehicle above the swivel mount. The grasping device includes arms pivotally connected to a support member and moved by actuators pivotally connected between the arms and the support member.
L'invention concerne un mécanisme de manutention pour des conteneurs monté sur un véhicule comprenant un support pivotant rotatif (220) et un bras articulé (230) relié audit support pivotant rotatif. Le support pivotant rotatif comprend un logement capable de tourner autour d'un arbre, dans un premier plan. Le bras articulé est fixé à une extrémité du logement pour pouvoir pivoter dans un second plan qui coupe le premier. Un dispositif de préhension (232) est relié à l'extrémité libre du bras articulé de façon à pouvoir pivoter dans le second plan. En fonctionnement, le bras articulé avance, avec le dispositif de préhension ouvert, vers le conteneur à manipuler. L'actionnement du support pivotant rotatif fait pivoter le bras articulé de la façon requise pour permettre au dispositif de préhension de saisir le conteneur. L'actionnement du bras articulé permet de soulever et de vider le conteneur dans le véhicule, au-dessus dudit support. Le dispositif de préhension a des bras reliés, de façon à pouvoir pivoter, à un élément porteur et déplacés par des dispositifs d'actionnement montés, de façon à pouvoir pivoter, entre les bras et l'élément porteur.
