Apparatus for loading and unloading palletized materials (C) into and from isothermal delivery wagons (F). The apparatus comprises a powered carriage (4) which is longitudinally movable on parallel guides (1,1') secured to the upper interior portion of the wagon (F). A telescopic guiding and lifting/lowering structure connected to the underside of a powered and transversely movable slide (17) and supporting in cantilever fashion a fork (28) for handling the palletized loads (C), comprises at least one jack (26, 26',29) of the multiple-stage single or double-acting type, and preferably of the hydraulic type. The fork (28) is rotated about a vertical axis in order to angularly position it with respect to the load to be handled, and is then locked in such position.
Apparatus for loading and unloading palletized materials into and from isothermal delivery wagons with which said apparatus is permanently associated, said apparatus being of the type comprising a powered carriage (4) which is longitudinally movable on parallel guides (1--1') secured to an upper interior portion of a said wagon (F) and comprising a telescopic guiding and lifting/lowering structure connected to an underside of a powered and transversely-movable slide (17) and supporting in cantilever fashion a fork (28) for handling the palletized loads (C), said telescopic structure comprising only jack means (26, 26', 29) of the multiple-stage type for vertically guiding, lifting and lowering said fork (28), and comprising means for rotating said fork (28) about a vertical axis in order to angularly position said fork with respect to a load to be handled, and means for locking said rotation.
