A vehicle includes a chassis, a cab coupled to the chassis, a body coupled to the chassis, a cowl coupled to at least one of the body or the cab and extending above the cab, and a heat exchanger coupled to the cab and positioned at least partially within the cowl such that the heat exchanger extends above the cab.

A refuse truck includes a chassis, a body, a lift assembly coupled to the chassis and/or the body, a cab coupled to the chassis and positioned in front of the body, and a control system. The cab includes an armrest comprising controls pivotable between an active position and an inactive position and an armrest position sensor configured to determine a position of the armrest between the active position and the inactive position. The control system configured to control a user interface to provide an indication of a current position of the lift assembly. The control system further configured to determine a position of the armrest, and selectively activate a pendent control on an exterior of the body.

A refuse collection vehicle includes a grabber that is operable to engage a refuse container, a lift arm coupled to the grabber and operable to raise and lower the grabber, a camera that is arranged to generate video data of a scene external to the refuse collection vehicle, and a semi-transparent display device configured to display the video data generated by the camera, wherein the semi-transparent display is positioned within a forward line of sight of an operator of the refuse collection vehicle.

A joystick control system for a refuse vehicle includes multiple joystick input devices, and a single controller. The single controller is configured to receive a user input from one or more of the multiple joystick input devices. The controller is also configured to identify which of the joystick input devices provide the user input. The controller is also configured to generate control signals, in response to receiving the user input, for one or more controllable elements of the refuse vehicle based on which of the joystick input devices provides the user input and the user input. The controller is also configured to provide the control signals to the one or more controllable elements of the refuse vehicle to operate the one or more controllable elements of the refuse vehicle according to the user input.

A refuse vehicle has a tailgate. The tailgate has a framework to secure CNG tanks. A cover overlays the frame work to provide an aesthetic appearance to the vehicle.

A method for operating an integrated fueling and charging system includes electrically coupling an electrical output of the integrated fueling and charging system with an electrical input of a vehicle, fluidly coupling a gas output of the integrated fueling and charging system with a gas input of the vehicle, performing a first connection test on a first connection between the electrical output and the electrical input, performing a second connection test on a second connection between the gas output and the gas input, and responsive to the first connection passing the first connection test and the second connection passing the second connection test, simultaneously providing electricity and fuel gas from the integrated fueling and charging system to the vehicle.

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a vehicle body supported by the chassis, a lift assembly, and a projector. The vehicle body defines a receptacle for storing refuse. The lift assembly is configured to selectively engage a waste container. The lift assembly is movable between a first position and a second position. The projector is positioned to emit light outwardly away from the refuse vehicle and proximate the lift assembly to define a target area.

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis coupled to a wheel and having a first portion and a second portion, an energy storage system supported by the chassis, a drive motor coupled to the wheel and configured to receive electrical energy from the energy storage system and provide rotational mechanical energy to the wheel, a cab supported by the first portion of the chassis, a refuse compartment supported by the second portion of the chassis, a suspension supported by the cab, a seat supported within an interior of the cab, an armrest arranged proximate to the seat and having control console with a joystick, and an armrest adjustment assembly coupled to the armrest and configured to adjust a height of the armrest relative to the seat. The suspension supports the seat and the armrest so that a position of the armrest relative to the seat is maintained.

A vehicle includes a chassis including a first frame rail and a second frame rail, a tractive element coupled to the chassis, a drive motor configured to drive the tractive element to propel the vehicle, and an energy storage system. The energy storage system includes a first battery module and a second battery module. The energy storage system is selectively reconfigurable between (a) a first configuration in which the first battery module and the second battery module each provide electrical energy to the drive motor and (b) a second configuration in which the first battery module is removed from the vehicle and the second battery module provides electrical energy to the drive motor.

A vehicle includes a chassis including a first frame rail and a second frame rail, a tractive element coupled to the chassis, a drive motor configured to drive the tractive element to propel the vehicle, and a first energy storage assembly removably coupled to the chassis. The first energy storage assembly includes a battery tray and a plurality of battery packs arranged a longitudinal row within the battery tray, each battery pack including a housing and a plurality of battery cells, wherein the first energy storage assembly is configured to be decoupled from the chassis in part by sliding the battery tray along the first frame rail and the second frame rail.
