Abstract
A self-driven liftup conveyor comprises a channel including a bottom plate and two side plates; a roller tray accommodated in the channel and holding a multiplicity of rollers in a rotatable manner; a belt placed all over the length of the rollers; a drive mechanism for reciprocating the belt; and a lift mechanism interposed between the roller tray and the channel for moving the roller tray together with the belt on the rollers vertically with respect to a freight stacking face. A vehicular liftup conveyor is constructed by placing that self-driven liftup conveyor and ordinary liftup conveyors in parallel on the truck bed. A truck freight loader/unloader is constructed by placing the self-driven liftup conveyor and the ordinary liftup conveyors in parallel on a platform to be connected to the truck bed. A truck freight loading system is constructed by combining the truck freightloader/unloader and the truck bed having an ordinary liftup conveyor mounted thereon.
