PROTECTIVE MEANS FOR A LIFTING/TILTING OR TILTING DEVICE The pour-in opening of the collection container of a garbage truck is provided with a shield which envelops the entire working area of the lifting/tilting or tilting device in the manner of a hood. Wall parts of the shield are movable singly or together and are moved into an operating position or a rest position by suitable power means. The advantage of the present arrangement over the devices of the prior art is that the entire working area used by the lifting/tilting device and the attached garbage can during the required cycle of motions is essentially completely shielded, as in a capsule. Since the shield also encloses the pour-in opening of the associated collection container there is eliminated discharge of dust; moreover there is a reduction in the noise level caused by can noises, hydraulic motors and equipment motions. Finally, due to shielding at the working area of the pour-in device, the risk of accidents is greatly reduced since it is not possible for operating personnel to gain access to the working area during the pour-in operation. |
