Various embodiments of a mining vehicle are disclosed. The embodiments provide mining vehicles that are battery powered rather than diesel powered. The embodiments also provide vehicles that have relatively high hauling capacity relative to their length and footprint (area). The embodiments also provide vehicles with improved forward and rearward ground visibility. In addition, the mining vehicles have a higher density compared to traditional vehicles, which helps to improve traction, as well as better vehicle handing and power density because of increased power relative to diesel powered vehicles.

The disclosure relates to a device for filling a bucket in a loading and transport device having a rear part of a frame structure with articulated arms rotatable by power units, and second arms attached by pivots to a bucket which is in a transport position rotatable by power units around pivots to an emptying position. A middle part of the bucket bottom is connected by pivots with a panel having rotatable arms. The panel is rotatable around pivots and is arranged to lift and shift material on top of the panel to the rear part of the bucket, after which, the front part of the bucket bottom is empty and the bucket is fillable by pushing forward and rotatable around a horizontal shaft such that a center of gravity of the bucket transfers onto a wheelbase of the loading and transport device.

A scraper has an apron, a bowl, a cutting edge, a vehicle attachment, and a pivoting mechanism such that the scraper has a flat position and an angled position. In the flat position the cutting edge is in position to cut into dirt and store the dirt in the bowl, while in the angled position the scraper is rotated such that dirt within the bowl can drop onto the ground in front of the scraper.
