A washout system for a concrete mixer vehicle includes a plurality of valves, a plurality of nozzles, and a controller. The plurality of valves are configured to (i) be fluidly coupled to a pump and a fluid tank and (ii) receive a fluid from the pump. One or more of the plurality of nozzles are fluidly coupled to a respective one of the plurality of valves. Each of the plurality of nozzles are configured to provide the fluid to a respective target when the respective one of the plurality of valves is selectively activated to an open position. The controller is configured to monitor a plurality of washout parameters during operation of the concrete mixer vehicle and initiate one of a plurality of washout modes in response to a subset of the plurality of washout parameters being satisfied for the one of the plurality of washout modes.
摘要:
A concrete mixer includes a chassis, a cab coupled to the chassis, and a mixing drum rotatably coupled to the chassis and defining an opening. The concrete mixer also includes a charge hopper assembly positioned at the opening of the mixing drum. The charge hopper assembly includes a latch, an actuator coupled to the latch and positioned to move the latch between a first position and a second position, and a sensor positioned on the latch and configured to indicate the orientation of the latch and the charge hopper assembly.
摘要:
The present invention is a front discharge transit mixer apparatus. In one form of the present invention the operator has an environment surrounde by a large viewing area so as to increase his ability to control the vehicle. Further, creature comforts include increased head room in the cab, air conditing, heat, and storage compartments. A total weight system is provided for assisting in maintaining the proper weight distribution of the apparatus for passage over roads and bridges.
