The lift arm assembly includes a first arm, a second arm, and an implement coupled to the first arm and the second arm. The lateral stabilizer assembly includes a lateral stabilizer and a backer plate. The lateral stabilizer assembly is configured to prevent lateral sway of the implement when the lift arm assembly is in the first position by the lateral stabilizer coming in contact with the set of bump plates.

A refuse container tipping device includes a first mounting plate, a second mounting plate, a hinge plate, and a plurality of fasteners. The first mounting plate defines a plurality of first slots. The plurality of first slots each extend in a first direction along substantially parallel axes. The second mounting plate is releasably coupled to the first mounting plate and defines a plurality of second slots. The plurality of second slots each extend in a second direction along substantially parallel axes. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. The hinge plate is coupled to the second mounting plate. The hinge plate supports a hinge and a grapple arm that is rotatably coupled to the hinge. The plurality of fasteners couple the second mounting plate to the first mounting plate by extending through the plurality of first slots and the plurality of second slots.

A tipper assembly includes a base, an actuator coupled to the base, a transmission coupled to the actuator, an arm coupled to the transmission, and an implement coupled to the arm. The implement is configured to engage with a container such that operation of the actuator facilitates pivoting the container from a base position to a dump position to dump contents within the container. The transmission is configured to provide a shake function in response to the dump position being reached to assist in the dumping of the contents within the container.

A lift assembly includes a first lift arm including a first arm portion and a second arm portion, a second lift arm including a third arm portion and a fourth arm portion, a first actuator positioned to facilitate repositioning the second arm portion of the first lift arm relative to the first arm portion of the first lift arm, a second actuator positioned to facilitate repositioning the fourth arm portion of the second lift arm relative to the third arm portion of the second lift arm, and one or more pivot actuators positioned to facilitate pivoting the lift assembly between a stowed position and a working position. The first actuator is configured to reposition the second arm portion relative to the first arm portion and the second actuator is configured to reposition the fourth arm portion relative to the third arm portion when the one or more pivot actuators pivot the lift assembly between the stowed position and the working position.

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis having a frame and a cab disposed at one end of the frame, a body including a hopper portion having a first width and a storage portion having a second width greater than the first width, the hopper portion positioned forward of the storage portion, between the storage portion and the cab, a primary ejector having a width equal to the first width, an auxiliary ejector having a width equal to the difference between the first width and the second width, and a pickup. The pickup is configured to selectively couple the primary ejector and the auxiliary ejector.

A system for lifting and tipping a bin containing solid waste materials in a container body and for compacting the solid waste materials in the container body includes a motor, a packer plate, and at least one linkage assembly operatively connected to the motor. When the motor is operated, the at least one linkage assembly is configured for lifting the bin above the container body, tipping the bin, pivoting the packer plate from a retracted position to a compacting position and then from the compacting position to the retracted position, and lowering the bin back down. A solid waste materials collection and compaction container assembly has a container body and a system for lifting and tipping a bin in the container body, and for compacting solid waste materials in the container body.

A tipper assembly includes a base, an actuator coupled to the base, an arm coupled to the actuator, an implement coupled to the arm, and a shaker assembly coupled to the actuator. The implement includes an upper retainer and a lower retainer that are configured to engage with a container such that operation of the actuator facilitates pivoting the container from a base position to a dump position. The shaker assembly includes one or more linkages configured to facilitate providing a shake function when the container is in the dump position.

A hydraulic system includes a support structure, a hydraulic actuator, a rigid tube, a flexible tube, and a fluid port. At least a portion of the hydraulic actuator is movable between a retracted orientation and an extended orientation relative to the support structure. A first rigid tube end of the rigid tube is coupled to the hydraulic actuator. A second flexible tube end is coupled to a second rigid tube end of the rigid tube. The fluid port is coupled to the support structure so that the rigid tube moves relative to the fluid port between the retracted orientation and the extended orientation. The fluid port is coupled to the second flexible tube end so that the second rigid tube end and the fluid port are disposed along the same reference plane when the hydraulic actuator is in both the retracted orientation and the extended orientation.

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a body coupled to the chassis, a lift arm assembly coupled to at least one of the chassis or the body and selectively repositionable between a first position and a second position, a fork tube coupled to the lift arm assembly, a set of bump plates coupled to the fork, and a lateral stabilizer assembly coupled to at least one of the frame or the body. The lift arm assembly includes a first arm, a second arm, and an implement coupled to the first arm and the second arm. The lateral stabilizer assembly includes a lateral stabilizer and a backer plate. The lateral stabilizer assembly is configured to prevent lateral sway of the implement when the lift arm assembly is in the first position by the lateral stabilizer coming in contact with the set of bump plates.

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a body, a primary ejector, and an auxiliary ejector. The chassis includes a frame and a cab disposed at one end of the frame. The body includes a hopper portion and a storage portion. The width of the storage portion is greater than the width of the hopper portion. The auxiliary ejector has a width equal to the difference between the width of the storage portion and the width of the hopper portion. The primary ejector is selectively repositionable within the hopper portion and the storage portion of the body to at least one of compact refuse therein or eject refuse therefrom. The auxiliary ejector is selectively repositionable within the storage portion of the body to at least one of compact refuse therein and eject refuse therefrom in tandem with the primary ejector.
