  • Patent number: 6171048
    Abstract: A cart which is provided with lifting jacks (26) and wheels on casters (28) providing a means of vertically lifting and transporting a fire suppression agent storage container in an upright position. The apparatus is designed to lift from the base of the container without requiring a lifting element to be placed beneath said fire suppression agent storage container. The base of the container is coupled to the apparatus by the use of clamping frames (24). Once the clamping frames (24) are fully engaged around the container base, the lifting jacks (26) can be operated to lift the container. Once the container is lifted, the container can then be easily moved by rolling entire apparatus along a surface by way of the wheels on casters (28).
