An apparatus includes a base frame, first and second bins, first and second hydraulic assemblies, and a computer controller. The first hydraulic assembly is configured to selectively raise and lower the first bin relative to the base frame. The second hydraulic assembly is configured to selectively raise and lower the second bin relative to the base frame. The first and second hydraulic assemblies are individually actuable, and their actuation is coordinated by the controller. In another aspect, a method for transferring product using an apparatus includes inputting to a computer controller a first threshold rate of change in weight signals of a weight sensor; relaying a plurality of weight signals from the weight sensor to the controller; calculating a determination by the controller at least in part on whether the threshold rate of change has been exceeded; and automating actuation of a hydraulic assembly based on the determination.

A dump trailer and system for a semi-trailer truck are disclosed. The dump trailer and system includes a tub, a coupling plate configured to engage the dump trailer to the tractor, a first hydraulic cylinder hinge, and a second hydraulic cylinder that cooperate to improve manufacturing economics and/or dumping of a load carried by the dump trailer.

A dump trailer and system for a semi-trailer truck are disclosed. The dump trailer and system includes a tub, a coupling plate configured to engage the dump trailer to the tractor, a first hydraulic cylinder hinge, a second hydraulic cylinder, and a draft arm attached to the coupling plate and the tub that cooperate to improve manufacturing economics and/or dumping of a load carried by the dump trailer.

A transportable, top-loadable, and rear-unloadable slide trailer includes a frame, a secondary wheeled frame configured to translate relative to the frame between a forward position and a rearward position via a slideable assembly between the frame and the secondary wheeled frame, a bulk material carrier positionable in a load position and an unload position, and an unloader assembly coupled to the bulk material carrier and the frame. The trailer is loadable with the bulk material carrier in the load position. The trailer is transportable with the secondary wheeled frame in the rearward position and the bulk material carrier in the load position. The trailer is unloadable with the bulk material carrier in the unload position and the secondary wheeled frame in the forward position.

A power unit with manual override control for a hydraulic system having an initial state and at least one operational state is provided, comprising: a tank for storing hydraulic fluid that moves between a first chamber and a second chamber of a hydraulic cylinder; a pump that routes the hydraulic fluid in and out of the tank; a first relief valve; a first solenoid valve configured to shift between a plurality of positions based on the at least one operational state of the hydraulic system; a first check valve connected to the first solenoid valve; a manual override control unit comprising: a second check valve; and a second solenoid valve configured to shift between a plurality of positions based on activation of a manual override control, wherein the activation of the manual override control returns the hydraulic system from the at least one operational state to the initial state.

A cabin control valve assembly for a vehicle includes a cabin control valve with at least one port P, and at least one solenoid direction control valve that is integrated with the cabin control valve at the at least one port P such that pressurised air that enters through an inlet port of the cabin control valve reaches an inlet of the at least one solenoid direction control valve. The at least one solenoid direction control valve is configured to allow, based on at least one signal indicative of at least one parameter related to the vehicle, delivery of pressurised air to a corresponding cylinder coupled to the cabin control valve assembly for operation of the cylinder.

A work vehicle includes a bypass passage formed in an operational valve of a dump cylinder and configured to feed pressure oil from a hydraulic pump to a power steering device when the operational valve is under a neutral state and an oil feeding passage equipped with an orifice, the orifice-equipped oil feeding passage being configured to feed the pressure oil from the hydraulic pump to a rod side oil chamber of the dump cylinder when the operational valve is under the neutral state.

A valve for controlling a hydraulic cylinder on a work machine may include a raising position configured for placing a pump in fluid communication with a cap end of the hydraulic cylinder. The valve may also include closed center position configured for closing off fluid communication to the cap end line and the rod end line. The valve may also include a lowering position configured for placing the pump in fluid communication with the rod end of the hydraulic cylinder. The valve may also include a snubbing position configured for placing the cap end in restricted flow fluid communication with the tank and for placing the rod end in restricted flow fluid communication with the tank.

A work machine loads materials onto a conveyance vehicle. A system for controlling the work machine includes a detection device that detects an operation of the conveyance vehicle, and a controller that controls the work machine. The work machine includes a work implement attached to a rotating body. The controller acquires operation data indicative of an operation of the conveyance vehicle from the detection device. The controller causes the rotating body to rotate toward a predetermined unloading position. The controller determines whether the conveyance vehicle is stopped at a predetermined loading position based on the operation data. The controller causes the work implement to wait on standby at the unloading position upon determining that the conveyance vehicle is operating. The controller controls the work machine to unload materials at the unloading position upon determining that the conveyance vehicle is stopped at the loading position.

A support assembly comprises a bracket, a blocking member, and a spring. The blocking member is adapted to slidingly move within a through opening of a support member. The blocking member is adapted to be selectively moved from a supporting position to a non-supporting position. The spring is adapted to bias the blocking member towards the non-supporting position. In certain embodiments, the bracket is adapted to retain the blocking member at least partially within the through opening when the bracket is mounted to a hoist. In certain embodiments, the blocking member comprises a handle comprising a pin axially aligned within a compression spring and the bracket comprises a notch adapted to receive the handle.
