A material handling system including a receptacle; a loading opening disposed within the receptacle; a transfer opening disposed within the receptacle in adjacent angled relation to the loading opening; and a first compaction plate rotatably coupled proximate the receptacle between the loading opening and the transfer opening. As to particular embodiments, the material handling system can further include a second compaction plate movably disposed proximate the transfer opening. Upon rotation of the first compaction plate toward the second compaction plate in an immovable condition, material disposed between the first and second compaction plates is compacted to generate compacted material. As to particular embodiments, the material handling system can further include a rotatable arm and a rotatable gripper rotatably coupled to a rotatable arm first end. As to particular embodiments, the rotatable arm can be rotatably coupled to an extendable arm which can reversibly extend laterally outward.

A refuse collection vehicle with a wheeled vehicle chassis and a refuse-collecting body coupled to the wheeled vehicle chassis. The refuse-collecting body includes a refuse storage, a track, and a refuse packer. The refuse storage has a width direction and a length direction. The track extends along the length direction of the refuse storage. The refuse packer has a ram, a fixed bracket, and a wear bar. The ram defines a refuse-contacting surface in the width direction of the refuse storage. The fixed bracket is secured to a lateral surface of the ram in the length direction of the refuse storage. The wear bar engages the track and mechanically couples to the fixed bracket by a releasable fastener. The wear bar is supported on the fixed bracket by at least three spaced apart connection components in the length direction.

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a body coupled to the chassis, a camera, and one or more processing circuits. The body defines a refuse compartment configured to store refuse therein. The one or more processing circuits are configured to acquire, from the camera, image data corresponding to refuse acquired by the refuse vehicle, determine, based on the image data, at least one parameter corresponding to at least one object within the refuse, generate, based on the image data and the at least one object within the refuse, display data including the image data and at least one display element identifying the at least one object within the refuse, and provide the display data to a user interface of the refuse vehicle.

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, an energy storage device, a body, a first electric power take-off system, and a second electric power take-off system. The energy storage device is supported by the chassis and is configured to provide electrical power to a prime mover. Activation of the prime mover selectively drives the refuse vehicle. The body is supported by the chassis. The first electric power take-off system is coupled to at least one of the body and the chassis, and includes a first motor that is configured to drive a helical gear pump to convert electrical power received from the energy storage device into hydraulic power. The second electric power take-off system is coupled to at least one of the body and the chassis, and includes a second motor that is configured to drive the helical gear pump to convert electrical power received from the energy storage device into hydraulic power.
