Abstract: A device for lifting multiple containers, such as beverage bottles from a carton, which allows for quick and easy loading of refrigerated cooler racks. The cooler racks are devised to cooperatively engage guides on the lifting device so the bottles can be transferred from the lifting device to the racks by the influence of gravity. The method of cooler rack loading allows a worker to efficiently unload beverage cartons and load cooler racks at 4 to 5 times the usual speed with less loss and damage over conventional manual loading methods. The lifting device includes a pair of pivotable, elongated gates which engage the necks of the beverage bottles during lifting and transferring to the cooler racks.
