摘要

The vehicle has a holding and tipping device, as well as a filler opening (8) for the emptying of a container (10). The system is designed to acquire data which is stored in a transponder located on the container, and has a transceiver (2) with an antenna arrangement (6) which extends around the periphery of the filler opening. The antenna arrangement has several antennas which form a closed identification region, and the arrangement is controlled by the transceiver in a multiplex operation.
