Abstract
A parts handler comprising a container with a discharge chute secured to a frame which can be transported by a forklift truck. The discharge chute has a spring hinge type door opened by a pull-down handle. The frame is attached and secured to the bottom of the container by hinges located at the same end of the container as is the discharge chute. The container is raised by an ordinary hydraulic floor jack secured to the frame. The jack raises the container by a caster secured to the arm of the jack which operates within a channel secured to the bottom of the container. By raising the arm of the jack, the end of the container opposite the discharge chute rises and parts are allowed to flow from the container by opening of the door of the discharge chute.
