How does a dump truck work?

May 08, 2024

A dump truck refers to a vehicle that unloads cargo by itself through hydraulic or mechanical lifting. Also called a dump truck. It is composed of automobile chassis, hydraulic lifting mechanism, cargo compartment and power take-off device. The carriage of a dump truck is divided into two types: backward tipping and sideways tipping. The movement of the piston rod is controlled by the control system. Rearward tipping is more common. Pushing the piston rod makes the carriage tip over. A few tilt in both directions. The structure of the dump truck's engine, chassis and cab is the same as that of a general truck. The high-pressure oil enters the lifting hydraulic cylinder through the distribution valve and oil pipe, and there is a cab safety protection plate at the front end of the carriage. The engine drives the hydraulic pump through the transmission and power take-off device. The cabin hydraulic tilting mechanism consists of a fuel tank, a hydraulic pump, a distribution valve, a lifting hydraulic cylinder, a control valve and an oil pipe. The engine drives the hydraulic pump through the transmission and power take-off device. The high-pressure oil enters the lift hydraulic cylinder through the distribution valve and oil pipe, and pushes the piston rod to tilt the car. Lateral tipping is more common, and the control system controls the movement of the piston rod to stop the car at any desired tilt position. The carriage uses its own gravity and hydraulic control to reset.
