Zusammenfassung: | The application relates to carriage of goods by public roads. A freight handling apparatus includes a frame having a coupling mechanism for coupling to a motor vehicle, a container-carrying deck, a wheel suspension, an outer body in the form of a rectangular freight container, the inner space of the outer body being divided in horizontal direction by a plate to accommodate in the lower freight compartment a reusable tank with necessary control and measurement equipment, filling and drain fittings. The freight handling apparatus simplifies and secures its transportation on roads as much as possible by lowering the center of gravity and arrangement of the center of gravity of the tank close to the axis of the vehicle carrying the apparatus, facilitates maintenance and inspection of the tank without removing it from the frame, and makes easier loading and unloading of goods. |
