Bucket for a construction vehicle used for loading, moving, transporting, pouring or spreading bulk material

A bucket for an industrial vehicle configured to load, move, transport, tip and spread a bulk material. The bucket includes two lateral panels extending on each side of a loading panel having a loading edge and an unloading edge. The bucket includes a support panel, an opening panel, an adjuster and a fixing attachment. The adjuster includes a rotationally movable roller situated under the bucket and configured to turn in the direction of rotation of the wheels of the vehicle and to rest on the ground during spreading. The fixing attachment is configured to be fixed to the vehicle and is housed in a vertical translational movable space configured to leave travel for vertical translational movement. The fixing attachment is configured to rotationally move about an axis of rotation perpendicular to the support panel so as to turn the bucket relative to the ground.

Controlling a digging operation of an industrial machine

Systems, methods, devices, and computer readable media for controlling the operation of an industrial machine including one or more components. A method of controlling the industrial machine includes determining a position of at least one of the one or more components of the industrial machine during a digging operation, determining a hoist bail pull setting based on the position of the at least one of the one or more components and a relationship between component position and hoist bail pull, and setting a level of hoist bail pull to the hoist bail pull setting. The level of hoist bail pull early in the digging operation is greater than the level of hoist bail pull later in the digging operation.
