Abstract

See full text

A cart lifter is provided that is adapted to be mounted to a refuse container or directly to a refuse collection vehicle. A support is provided that is adapted to be pivotally mounted adjacent to the loading area of either the refuse container or the vehicle. First and second support arms are provided that are carried by the pivoting support. The support arms are movable relative to the support frame between a first position in which the support arms are adjacent the refuse container or vehicle and a second position in which the support arms are relatively angularly disposed with their free ends being spaced outwardly away from the support frame. A container capturer is provided for engaging and releasing a smaller refuse collection cart, and the free ends of each of the support arms are adapted to carry the container capturer. Actuators are provided for pivoting the support frame relative to the container or vehicle to dump or invert the refuse collection cart, to move the support arms between the first position for storage and/or dumping and the second position for capturing or releasing a cart, and an actuator for actuating the container capturer so that it can engage and release the refuse collection cart.
