Abstract
A movable lifting and depositing device comprising separate rack and pinion jacks to be connected to the corners of portable containers, e.g., cabins, containers, shelters or the like, by means of brackets, the jacks having racks for the containers provided on columns which have track wheels at the bottom. In order to maintain sufficient stability of the lifting and depositing device, even when the container to be handled is at relatively high positions, each rack and pinion jack has a swivel mechanism with two vertically spaced work positions. In its bottom work position, wherein it is folded down from a main column guide onto a relevant bracket, the swivel mechanism is to be connected with an auxiliary column guide arranged beneath the main column guide. This can be moved by the swivel mechanism into the top work position of the associated column. To move the swivel mechanism into one of the two work positions when it is loaded, a stop device is provided between the main column guide and the associated rack or column.
