Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis having a frame member, a front axle assembly, and a rear axle assembly. The refuse vehicle also includes a mount coupled to the frame member and extending from a front portion of the frame member, the mount having a receiver extending laterally along the mount, and a cab movably coupled to the frame member and the mount. The cab includes a cab frame member, a cab cross-member coupled to the cab frame member and extending laterally from the cab frame member, and a brace coupled to the cab frame member. The cab cross-member is coupled to the cab frame member forward relative to the receiver, where in response to a force being applied to a front end of the cab, the cab is configured to move rearward relative to the mount and the cab cross-member is configured to engage the receiver.

Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis including a plurality of rails, a front and rear tractive assemblies coupled to the chassis, and a battery assembly. The battery assembly is coupled to the chassis between the front and rear tractive assemblies. The battery assembly includes a battery housing, a mounting assembly, and a support. The mounting assembly is coupled to the battery housing and the plurality of rails. The mounting assembly includes a isolator configured to stabilize the battery assembly. The support is positioned within the battery housing and extends along a midpoint of the battery housing. The isolator absorbs horizontal and vertical impact forces introduced to the battery assembly.

Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a body coupled to the chassis, a cab coupled to the chassis and positioned in front of the body, a lift assembly coupled to at least one of the chassis or the body. The lift assembly includes a first arm, a second arm, an implement coupled to the first arm and the second arm, and an actuator positioned to pivot the first arm and the second arm to facilitate repositioning the implement between a plurality of positions including a stowed position where the implement is positioned above the body, a working position where the implement is positioned in front of the cab, and a transit position between the stowed position and the working position. The lift assembly further includes one or more projectors coupled to the implement. The one or more projectors are positioned to provide a visual indication of the alignment of the implement with respect to an external target.

Abstract: A refuse vehicle including a chassis, a tractive element coupled to the chassis and configured to engage a support surface to support the refuse vehicle, a refuse compartment coupled to the chassis, a lift assembly coupled to the chassis and configured to lift a refuse container to transfer refuse from the refuse container into the refuse compartment, and a light projector coupled to the chassis and positioned to emit a light onto the support surface to define a target area. The target area represents a range of positions within which the lift assembly is capable of engaging the refuse container.

Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis coupled to a wheel, an energy storage system supported by the chassis, a drive motor coupled to the wheel and configured to receive electrical energy from the energy storage system and provide rotational mechanical energy to the wheel, a cab supported by a first portion of the chassis, a refuse compartment supported by a second portion of the chassis, a seat supported within an interior of the cab and including a seat support and a backrest, a control console arranged within the interior of the cab and including a joystick, and a suspension coupled between the cab and the seat and configured to allow the seat to move relative to the cab. The suspension supports the seat and the control console so that a position of the control console relative to the seat is maintained.

Abstract: Systems and apparatuses include a tag axle system including an axle assembly, a linkage coupling the axle assembly to a vehicle chassis, and a hydraulic cylinder coupled between the vehicle chassis and the axle assembly. The hydraulic cylinder actuates the axle assembly between a raised position and a lowered position, and acts as a spring damper suspension component.
