This invention relates to improvements in a self-loading vehicle of the type exemplified by U. patents to Leach 'et al., No. 2087348, dated July 20, 1937, No. '2;1-24;624, dated July 26, 1938, and No. 2,260,947, dated October 28, 1941.
It is an object of "the invention 'to provide a self-loading vehicle of the type referred to incorporating a hollow body for the reception of refuse and the like and 'a loading bucket traversing said "body from 'a loading 'to'an unloading point and vice versa, with an "automatically or manually operable cover or closure for said buck- -et effective during-the travel-thereof to prevent displacement of thecontents'of the'bucket therefrom.
It is-a further object toprovid'e *a vehicle loading bucket of the type referred to wherein the bucket has a cover 01' closure hingedly articulated thereto, in combination with means automatically responsive to the usual pivotal discharging movement of the bucket to swing thecover to ail-inoperative position.
The foregoing statements are indicative in a general way of the nature of the invention, but other and more specific objects will be apparent .to those skilled in the art upon afull under-standing of the construction and'operation ofthe'device.
One embodiment of :the invention is presented herein for the purpose .of lexemplification, but .it will be appreciated that the-invention issusceptible of incorporation .in .otherim'odified forms coming equally within -.the scope of the appended claims.
.In the drawings,
Fig. 1 is a fragmentary view in side elevation .illustratinga self-loading vehicle havingthe improved covered bucket :provis'ions of the present invention;
Fig. .2.is arear view-illustrating the vehicle and covered bucket :thereof, with the closure of the latter shown in operative, bucket-closing position;
Fig. 3 isp-a view similar toFig. 2 illustrating "the bucket cover in removed or inoperative p0sition; and
Fig. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary view more clearly illustrating certain details of the automatic cover actuating linkage.
The present invention provides a self-covering ,2 I elsgupwardly and forwardly to its unloading positi'on above and adjacent the front of the .vehicle body; likewise recovering the bucket during its return .movement back to the loading ,position, whereby the bucket remains covered until it is .desired to vreload the same. Provisions "for said covering and uncovering operations, which are efiected "automatically during the .operative cycle of .the bucket, are .yet such .as :to enable the bucket 'tobe manually uncovered and covered by the operator at the loading .station, 'as desired. It will be appreciated that certain, and'in'factmost, of the provisions to'be described are duplicated on opposite sidesof the vehicle, so
that it will not be necessary to call attention .to each-instance of such duplication.
Referring "to the drawings, the reference numeral Ill generally designates the body of aselfloading vehicle of the type shown in the above identified patents, being provided with actuating chains .H and connected coupling links M .to actuate the pair of spaced buckets supporting arms It in the arcuate travel thereof in opposite directions over the top of the body iii. "llhese arms are guided by rollers l4 and suitable guide ways-on sides of the body, all in the manner illustrated and described in the above patents, to which reference may be had if .a fuller description 0f the structure is desired.
The bucket i6 is pivoted between the support arms T3 at "IT and on its forward surface carries a loop -or 'bight =18 which is engageable with a fixedlymounted hook 1'9 adjacent a loading opening 20 in the top of the body, to tilt and .discharge the contents of .the bucket when .the same arrives at said loading opening 20. Said opening is normallycovered by the swingable closureand shield'2 Iv.
The above structure is all well known, being illustrated in the patents above referred to. It will be appreciated that the bucket it, when the chains ii are actuated, travels from the lower loading position illustrated in solid line in Fig. .1., "through the intermediate position illustrated .in dotted'line "in Fig. 1 to the final .discharging ,posit'ion at the top of the body, also illustrated in dotted line, in the conventional manner, after which it returns to original position.
The reference numeral 22 designates a cover or closure for the bucket f6 which is of curvedarcuate "outline in conformity with the marginal outline of the bucket mouth. The cover top is provided with .hand held loops 2.3 by which the -cover may be swung manually .rearwardly and downwardly to an inoperative bucket exposing position for loading, as illustrated in broken line in Fig. 1, and also as illustrated in Figs. 2 and 3. In order to accomplish a quick opening of the cover to the inoperative position illustrated in said broken lines in Fig. 1, and replacement to closed position, the same is pivotally connected to the bucket l6 by non-parallel links 24, 25 at either side thereof, as illustrated in Fig. 1, each link being adjustable for length. The respective pivots of links 24, 25 to the cover and bucket are designated 24, 25', and it is evident that these links will permit manual opening and closing of the cover 22 when desired, the operator merely grasping hand holds 23 from a point rearward of the bucket.
The link 25 is pivotally connected, at a point 26' located between its pivots 25', and preferably closely adjacent its bucket pivot, to an actuating thrust link 26. Said thrust link is in turn pivot- I ally articulated to the supporting arm l3, being provided with an elongated slot 21 extending longitudinally thereof, which slides on a fixed pivot and abutment pin 28 on said arm. This lost motion slot and pin connection enables the manual lifting of the cover 22 discussed above. The inner end of the slot has adjustable abutting engagement with said pin, being provided with a bevel-nose thrust or stop shoe 29 which is adjustably supported by an adjusting screw 30 threaded in a lateral bracket 3! on link 26. Shoe 29 may be guided for longitudinal adjustment relative to link 25, and held from displacement thereform by a follower 3| of oblong shape receivable in slot 21. Screw 30 permits accurate and easy adjustment of the extent of opening of the cover 22, which is automatically opened at the discharge opening 20, in the manner to be described.
Assuming that the bucket I6 has been filled with refuse or other material, the cover 22 being manually shifted to inoperative position for this purpose, the cover is replaced and the chain ll actuated to shift the bucket forwardly and upwardly over the body I0. As it approaches and reaches the loading opening of the body, the bight I8 is engaged by hook I 9 to swing the bucket clockwise about its pivot H on arms l3. This causes the thrust shoe: 29 to engage the pivot abutment pin 28 as link 28 shifts relative to said pin, with the result that thrust is applied through link 26 to link 25. Hence, closure 22 is swung countreclockwise to fully opened position, being guided by the further link 24, as illustrated in Fig. 1. A pair of bumpers or cushioned stops 32 on the bucket bottom are engaged by the cover in said last named position.
The bucket will remain open in its return to loading position, ready to receive another charge at said position. If recharging'is not desired, the cover may be replaced manually.
The foregoing structure provides a bucket cover which safeguards against undesired escape or loss of the bucket contents during its travel upwardly to the unloading point, which provisions are of extremely simple and inexpensive and highly effective character. They supplement substantially the purposes of the vehicle itself, among which are the complete enclosure of refuse, garbage and the like, so as to eliminate odor and unsightliness, and to that extent aflord a selfloading vehicle of greatly increased practicality and desirability.
