The disclosure relates to a lining for a haul truck body, said lining being arranged to extend over a haul truck body for carrying a load, wherein the lining is formed by a plurality of lining elements comprising at least a first type of lining elements, termed load-breaking lining elements, and a second type of lining elements, different from the load-breaking lining elements, said load-breaking lining elements being structured and arranged to restrict, to a higher degree than the second type of lining elements, movement of said load in relation to the lining. The disclosure further relates to a haul truck body comprising the lining and a haul truck comprising the haul truck body.

Lifting handle construction for vehicle tilt bed
11624215 · 2023-04-11 · ·

A tilt bed for a multi-utility vehicle that is movable from a flat conveying positon to a tilted dump position. The tilt bed has a lift handle construction that combines a molded thermoplastic portion integral with the tilt bed body and a handle bracket that provides reinforcement in the appropriate location to provide a sturdy handle for ease of lifting. The bracket has at least a yoke shape underlying the bed body and is co-extensive with a neighboring edge of the bed body to provide a comfortable lift area. The bracket is rigidly attached to the bed body, and may also have a more robust shape such as a closed loop. For added stiffness and strength, the bracket may also be rigidly connected to the bed frame.

BUCKET SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE TRAY

A bucket system (10) comprising a frame (12) including first and second rails (26, 27). A bucket (14) is provided having a bucket support (16) including front wheels (32, 33) and rear wheels (34, 35) being slidable within channels (30) in the first and second rails (26, 27). Rear portions (39) of the rails (26, 27) are pivotable between extended and stored positions. When the rear portions (39) are moved to the extended positions, gaps (42) are defined in upper sides of each of the rails (26, 27) such when the rear wheels (34, 35) are moved into the rear portions (39) of the first and second rails (26, 27), the front wheels (32, 33) may move upwardly through the gaps (42) to allow the bucket (14) to pivot about the rear wheels (34, 35).

System and method for detecting distribution of weight of payload in dump bodies

A system for detecting distribution of a weight of a payload in a dump body of a vehicle includes first sensors, second sensors, and a controller. The dump body is pivotable about pins to be selectively seated and titled to a frame of the vehicle. The first sensors are arranged between the dump body and the frame, and detect components of the weight of the payload exerted through the dump body when the dump body is seated relative to the frame. The second sensors are arranged correspondingly within the pins, and detect components of the weight of the payload exerted through the dump body. The controller determines a status of payload distribution in the dump body based on the component of the weight of the payload detected by the first sensors and second sensors, and generate a notification to indicate the status of payload distribution.

Apparatus for collection of debris escaping around a vehicle tailgate
