Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an improved refuse collection vehicle of the kind in which refuse is loaded to the rear of a storage compartment of a vehicle and compacted to form a slug of compacted waste material within the storage compartment of the vehicle.
  • front and rear are used to indicate a direction towards the front or rear of the vehicle in question.
  • refuse collection vehicles In refuse collection vehicles the refuse is compacted by a compaction blade located to the rear of the storage compartment to drive the refuse towards a front of the storage compartment.
  • a compaction blade located to the rear of the storage compartment to drive the refuse towards a front of the storage compartment.
  • Such refuse collection vehicles have a moveable front wall or ejector blade against which the compacted refuse is compacted.
  • the front wall or ejector blade is biased towards the rear of the refuse collection vehicle such that a slug of compacted refuse must overcome this bias to be moved toward the front of the refuse collection vehicle.
  • the front wall or ejector blade may be biased by a hydraulic ram.
  • the ram may be set to offer a constant bias.
  • the density of the slug of refuse at the rear of the refuse collection vehicle being much greater than the density of the slug of refuse in the region of the front wall or ejector plate. This, in turn may cause undue loads to accrue over a rear axis of the refuse collection vehicle and in some case overloading of the rear axle removing the refuse collection vehicle from active service while repairs are made.
  • the front wall or ejector blade may also be backed off from the enlarging slug of refuse to allow the slug of refuse more easily to move towards a front of the refuse collection vehicle.
  • a refuse collection vehicle having at least first and second axles and a storage compartment disposed over at least said first and second axles, load measurement means to determine a loading of each of said first and second axles, a compaction blade to drive refuse into the storage compartment at a first pressure, an ejector blade exerting a second pressure against which refuse is driven, in which each of the first and second pressures are determined and varied in response to the loading determined by the load measurement means.
  • the first and second pressures are controlled by means of an electronic control unit.
  • each of the first and second pressures may have predetermined upper and lower limits, said upper and lower limits being related to the load detected by the load measurement means. In this way, over dense compaction of the slug of refuse is to be avoided.
  • each of the first and second pressures may also be related to the position of the ejector blade in addition to the load detected by the load measurement means.
  • the load measurement means comprises a first load measurement means associated with a front axle of the refuse collection vehicle and a second load measurement means associated with a rear axle of the refuse collection vehicle.
  • a refuse collection vehicle 2 is shown having a first and second front axles 4,6 and first and second rear axles 8,10.
  • a storage compartment 12 is disposed over the second front axle 6 and the first and second rear axles 8,10.
  • First and second load measurement means 14,16 are in the illustrated embodiment associated with said second front axle 6 and the first rear axle 8. Any suitable load measurement means may be used for this purpose.
  • the load measuring means may instead be associated with the first front axle and the second rear axle, alternatively with each of the axles of the vehicle or still further the load measuring means may be located between the storage compartment and a chassis of the refuse collection vehicle with the load on the axles being interpolated from the detected load.
  • any suitable means for detecting or otherwise determining the load on the axles of the refuse collection vehicle may be used.
  • a compaction blade 20 to drive refuse into the storage compartment is provided within a hopper 22 to the rear of the refuse collection vehicle 2.
  • a moveable wall or ejector blade 24 against which refuse is driven is shown towards the rear of the storage compartment 12. In use, the ejector blade 24 is driven toward the front of the storage compartment 12 by a hydraulic ram 26.
  • Refuse is deposited in the hopper 22 and directed into the storage compartment 12 by the compaction blade 20.
  • the refuse is compacted in the storage compartment 12 between the ejector blade 24 and the compaction blade 20 to form a slug of refuse (not shown).
  • Refuse continues to be added to the storage compartment 12 and the slug of refuse becomes progressively more dense increasing the load over the rear axles 8,10 of the vehicle.
  • the predetermined level of loading of the first rear axle 10 needed to be detected to reduce the pressure of the hydraulic ram 26 and/or the predetermined level of loading of the second front axle 6 necessary to be detected to increase the pressure of the hydraulic ram 26 may vary over time.
  • compaction blade 20 typically works at a constant pressure, this may be varied in the present invention to ensure the desired density distribution in the slug of refuse is obtained for optimum loading of the storage compartment 12.
