Definitions

  • a disadvantage of this type of ram arrangement is that there is uneven compaction force throughout the stroke of the compactor due to the angle of the ram relative to the scissor arm mechanism.
  • the angle of the scissor arms relative to the horizontally mounted ram is small, which is to say that the cross-linked arms of the scissor mechanism are close to horizontal and this results in a relatively weak vertical compacting force being transferred through the compaction plate.
  • the scissor mechanism is more open, the angle of the ram relative to the scissor arms is larger, giving a larger vertical compacting force.
  • the difference in compacting force from closed position to open position can be substantial, and a difference of up to 1000% has been observed. This inconsistent compaction force is undesirable.
  • the ram assembly is moved so as to no longer protrude into the upper compartment when it is desired to discharge refuse from the upper compartment.
  • the flange lock is remotely actuable.
  • the upper compartment 120 comprises a floor 202, upright side walls 204 and inclined side walls 206.
  • An upper compartment discharge door (reference 124 in Figure 1 ) is opened to allow refuse to be pushed along the floor 202 and become discharged from the refuse collection vehicle 200.
  • the actuating compaction ram 220 of the compaction assembly 216 forms an obstacle to the discharge of refuse form the upper compartment 120.
  • the compaction plate 218 is in its lowered position adjacent an inclined floor portion 212 of the cardboard compartment 201.
  • the support scissors mechanism 400 is extended to assist with spreading the pressure applied on the compaction plate 218 by the piston rod 312.
  • the actuating compaction ram 220 is in its operating position, protruding into the upper compartment 120.
  • a flange lock 500 is in a closed position so as to engage with the flanged end 304 of the housing of the actuating compaction ram 220. This closed flange lock 500 holds the compaction ram housing in its operating position.
