Hydraulic System Core: The engine powers a hydraulic pump that converts mechanical energy into high-pressure oil.
Oil Delivery: Hydraulic oil flows through hoses to the lift cylinder.
Box Lifting: The cylinder extends, tilting the cargo box around its rear hinge.
Material Unloading: Gravity allows materials like gravel or coal to slide out as the box tilts.
Box Lowering: After unloading, the system releases pressure, and the box lowers via its weight or a return cylinder.
Applications: Enables efficient transport and unloading in construction, mining, and bulk material operations.
Design & Functionality:
Tipper Truck: Features an open-box bed hinged at the rear; hydraulic lift allows quick unloading.
Dump Truck: Heavy-duty vehicle, often off-road capable, with larger, more robust tipping mechanisms for transporting vast materials.
Classification:
Vehicles are categorized by size, capacity, and design, influencing their use.
Multi-axle tippers carry heavier loads; articulated dump trucks handle rough terrain with a flexible joint between cab and body.
Specialized Options:
High-sided or side tippers allow for bulkier materials or unloading in tight spaces.
Purpose:
Choosing the right type ensures suitability for project needs, budget, and operating conditions.
