    摘要: The invention concerns a container (4) for handling small livestock, particularly poultry, in the transportation of the poultry from a pouhryhouse to a central factory at which the poultry is processed. The container comprises a frame (6) of openwork construction which supports severel tiers of superposed drawers (8) mounted for movement relative thereto between open and closed positions. The container comprises locking mechanism which is operative to lock all the drawers simultaneously. The container comprises a lifting formation (24) which enables the container to be lifted by (for example) a modified fork lift truck, and as a consequence of such lifting, the locking mechanism is automatically rendered operative. Desirably the primary transporter (lorry or trailerl upon which the container is placed by the fork lift truck is provided with a formation (62) which is operative to retain the locking mechanism operative whilst the container rests on the lorry. The container forms part of a novel system for the transportation of poultry from geographically spaced buildings to a processing factory, at which the poultry is unloaded from the containers in a smooth and efficient manner.

    摘要: The invention concerns in the first instance a container for conveying small livestock, such as poultry, comprising a shell (8) of openwork construction, which supports a number of drawers (10) in a plurality of tiers of several drawers each, referably two tiers being arranged side by side and two tiers being arranged end to end. The container comprises locking means to lock all the drawers, either simultaneously or individually. When the drawers are in their open positions, there is ready access to the interior thereof. Each drawer comprises a part (32) which may be moved between an open position and a closed position and which, when the drawer is in its closed position and said part (32) is in its open position, permits access to the interior of the drawer which may conveniently be used in the washing of the drawers. In carrying out the method, a container is positioned at an unloading station and is moved vertically to present to an operative at the unloading station each of the superposed drawers in turn.
