What Does a Dump Truck Driver Do?

Dump truck is a special kind of vehicle that can transport materials by tipping hopper. A "bucket" -shaped container is mounted on the body, which can be flipped to facilitate unloading. It is suitable for short-distance transportation of various bulk materials such as gravel, earthwork, coal, ore and so on. It has strong power and usually has a mechanical return function.

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 the oil pipe, and there is a cab safety protection plate at the front end of the cabin.

The engine drives a hydraulic pump through a transmission and a power take-off device. The cabin hydraulic tipping mechanism is composed of an oil tank, a hydraulic pump, a distribution valve, a lifting hydraulic cylinder, a control valve, and an oil pipe.

The engine drives a hydraulic pump through a transmission and a power take-off device. High-pressure oil enters the lifting hydraulic cylinder through the distribution valve and the oil pipe, and pushes the piston rod to tip the cabin. Lateral tipping is more common, and the control of the piston rod movement through the operating system can stop the car in any desired tilt position. The carriage is reset by its own gravity and hydraulic control.

In order to adapt to uneven roads at the construction site, avoid material falling and achieve the right level of unloading
