A tipper dump truck features a spacious body, compact structure and light load weight. It delivers excellent safety performance during driving, high stability at high speeds, flexible steering and easy operation. So, do you know the working principle of a used tipper dump truck?
The structure of the engine, chassis and cab of a used tipper dump truck is the same as that of an ordinary cargo truck. Its cargo body has two tipping modes: rear tipping and side tipping. The working principle relies on the control system to drive the piston rod. Rear tipping is the most common type; the piston rod pushes the cargo body to tilt, while a few models support dual-direction tipping.
The hydraulic system of a used tipper dump truck consists of an oil tank, hydraulic pump, hydraulic valves, hydraulic hoses and hydraulic cylinders. When the cargo body needs to be lifted and tilted, the engine drives the hydraulic pump. Pressurized hydraulic oil flows through pipelines into the hydraulic cylinder to extend and retract the piston rod, controlling the lifting and tilting of the tipper body.
The engine of the used tipper dump truck drives the hydraulic pump through the transmission and power take-off device. High-pressure oil passes through the distribution valve and pipelines into the lifting cylinder, pushing the piston rod to tilt the cargo body. Rear tipping is widely used. The control system regulates the movement of the piston rod, allowing the cargo body to stop at any required tilting angle. The body resets automatically under its own weight and hydraulic control.
Above is an introduction to the working principle of a used tipper dump truck. It often works in cooperation with excavators, loaders, belt conveyors and other construction machinery to form a complete loading, transportation and unloading production line for earthwork, sand, gravel and bulk materials.
