Claims7
An apparatus for use in clearing, collecting, and transporting objects, comprising a rear wall;
- retractable means, located at the lower portion of said rear wall, forming a liftable bottom member for loading objects onto the apparatus;
- and side walls pivotably attached to said rear wall, wherein said liftable bottom member comprises a surface for loading the objects being cleared, collected, or transported onto the apparatus;
- wherein said liftable bottom member is subject to the action of means for moving said liftable bottom member between a first, substantially vertical position and a second, substantially horizontal position;
- wherein said liftable bottom member further comprises a blade chassis mounted on rods, said rods being subject to the action of means, attached to the anterior face of said rear wall, for moving said rods;
- wherein said rods extend through cam slots formed in support parts rigidly connected to said rear wall;
- and further wherein at least one cam slot in each support part extends in a substantially vertical direction and at least one other cam slot in each support part extends in a substantially horizontal direction.
An apparatus for use in clearing, collecting, and transporting objects, comprising a rear wall;
- retractable means, located at the lower portion of said rear wall, forming a liftable bottom member for loading objects onto the apparatus;
- and side walls pivotably attached to said rear wall, wherein said rear wall has a curved shape and is provided with flanges connected to said rear wall at right angles thereto, said flanges comprising cam slots in their lower portion, attachment points for means for moving said liftable bottom member in their uppper portion, and attachment points for hinges for said side walls.
An apparatus for use in clearing, collecting, and transporting objects, comprising a rear wall;
- retractable means, located at the lower portion of said rear wall, for loading the objects onto the apparatus;
- and side walls pivotably attached to said rear wall, wherein flaps are provided underneath said side walls as well as underneath said rear wall, said flaps being mounted on the walls which they equip so as to permit movement of said flaps in a vertical plane, whereby the position of said flaps adapts to ground unevenness.
An apparatus for use in clearing, collecting, and transporting objects, comprising a rear wall;
- retractable means, located at the lower portion of said rear wall, for loading the objects onto the apparatus;
- and at least one side wall pivotably attached to said rear wall, wherein flaps are provided underneath said at least one side wall as well as underneath said rear wall, said flaps being mounted on the walls which they equip so as to permit movement of said flaps in a vertical plane, whereby the position of said flaps adapts to ground unevenness.
