A refuse collection vehicle includes a refuse grabber assembly, a lift arm coupled to the refuse grabber assembly, and a hopper configured to receive refuse from the refuse container. The lift arm is operable to position the refuse grabber assembly. The refuse grabber assembly includes a first grabber arm and a second grabber arm that are configured to cooperate to engage the refuse container. The first grabber arm includes a first gripper and a first support arm coupled to the first gripper. The first gripper includes a first deformable structure configured to contact a first surface of a refuse container. The second grabber arm includes a second gripper and a second support arm coupled to the second gripper. The second gripper includes a second deformable structure configured to contact a second surface of the refuse container.

The disclosure provides a method and a system for muck processing in a smart city based on Internet of Things. The method is performed by a management platform, including: determining a target monitoring device of a target site based on the construction site information, obtaining muck truck monitoring data of the target site through the target monitoring device, obtaining dropped muck situation information of the muck truck in different time periods and determining muck truck management information by performing muck processing information analysis based on the muck truck monitoring data, determining vehicle dust situation information through a fourth model, determining a dropped muck reason or a dust reason through a third model, and issuing different processing instructions based on different reasons of dropped muck and/or dust produced by the muck truck.

A cart lifter assembly is provided that is adapted to be mounted to an intermediate refuse collection container that includes a scissors-type extension assembly for moving the lifter between a first/retracted and a second/extended position. The scissors extension assembly further comprises an elongated channel member configured to be secured to the wall of the intermediate container; a mounting block slidably received in the elongated channel member; first second, third and fourth scissor arms; and a bracket configured to be fixedly mounted to the wall of the intermediate container in spaced relationship to the elongated channel member. A rotary actuator is secured to the bracket and has a rotatable shaft extending from opposite ends thereof, for moving the lifter relative to the intermediate container between the first/retracted position and the second/extended position, with one end of the second scissor arm being removably secured to the rotatable shaft.

A refuse vehicle comprising a chassis, a body assembly coupled to the chassis, the body assembly defining a refuse compartment, and a thermal event monitoring system including an air sampling line configured to capture air from the refuse compartment of the refuse vehicle and transport the air to a sensor positioned outside of the refuse compartment and a processing circuit operatively coupled to the sensor and configured to detect a thermal event indicating at least one of a fire or an overheating component based on a signal from the sensor.
