Title: Load leveling modification for front loading refuse truck
Inventor: GOEDKEN KENNETH D
IPC: B60P3/22
Filed: 2012-07-31
Abstract: A modification apparatus to convert an existing front loading refuse collection truck so that the lifted container remains level until the container is near the load opening of the refuse collection body of the truck. A mounting plate is bolted to brackets added to an existing refuse collection body and provides multiple connection points for attachment of one end of a slave cylinder that is hinged at its other end to one of the main lift arms of the collection body. As the rod of the slave cylinder extends or retracts with the movement of the lift arm, hydraulic fluid from the slave cylinder passes to fork cylinders which retract or extend to control the orientation of the lifted container relative to the lift arms. The apparatus can be easily added to a variety of existing front loading collection bodies.

A curling member (20), a permanent pleating member (19) and a cutting blade (18) are concentrically provided around the mobile die half and sequentially arranged from the inside to the outside thereof. Similarly, a counter curling member (23), a counter permanent pleating member (22) and a counter cutting blade (21) are concentrically arranged around the stationary die half. The blade and the counter cutting blade interact to cut a blank (C')from the starting strip, the dimensions of the blank being proportional to the dimensions of the container to be moulded. The permanent pleating member and the counter permanent pleating member interact to permanent pleat or wrinkle a peripheral crown (CI) of the blank at least at a portion of the side wall. The curling member and the counter curling member interact to form a curled edge extending externally from the peripheral flat portion of the container being moulded. Advantageously, the mobile die half can be at least partially inserted into the counter curling member so as to form the curled edge (104) of the container between the lying plane of the respective flat perimeter portion and the bottom of the container itself.
