PIT-LESS TRUCK DUMPER

摘要

The truck dumper includes a low profile truck platform built atop a flat concrete slab and lifted by a pair of hydraulic cylinders. The truck platform has a deck suspended between a pair of side I beams resting atop the bottom flanges of the I beams. The low profile truck platform eliminates the need for a below grade lift pit. The truck dumper also includes a wheel chock assembly integrated into the truck platform.
