Abstract

A carrier apparatus adapted to be mounted on one end of an elongated boom arm for handling beef quarters and like loads includes an upstanding rear wall structure adapted for securement to said boom arm, a load support platform extended forwardly from the lower end of the rear wall structure, a side member extended forwardly from one side of the rear wall structure and a gate mechanism supported on the rear wall structure for movement between a loading position displaced from the forward surface of the wall structure whereby a load may be received on the platform in leaning engagement against the rear wall structure and a carrying position wherein the gate mechanism is extended forwardly and laterally across the forward surface of the wall structure for at least partially enclosing the load between the side member, wall structure and gate mechanism. Both the platform and rear wall structure may be arcuately shaped with the gate mechanism adapted to be circumferentially advanced about the outer circumference of the rear wall structure.
