  • Patent number: 12319344
    Abstract: A body tie-down for a chassis includes a mounting plate, a spring assembly, and a rigid member. The mounting plate is configured to fixedly couple with a body frame member with one or more fasteners, each of the fasteners including a bolt and a collar that are swaged together. The rigid member is configured to couple with the mounting plate through the spring assembly to provide a semi-resilient joint between the rigid member and the mounting plate, the rigid member configured to fixedly couple with a frame.

  • Patent number: 12312166
    Abstract: 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.

  • Publication number: 20250115201
    Abstract: A vehicle can include an assembly, a body, a first connection point, and a second connection point. The first connection point can be disposed on a surface of the body. The first connection point can receive a first element of the assembly. The first connection point can couple the first element with the body to provide structural support to at least one of the assembly or the body. The second connection point can be disposed on the surface of the body. The second connection point can be adjacent to the first connection point. The second connection point can receive a second element of the assembly that is configured to provide an electrical connection or a hydraulic connection between the body and the assembly.
