<p>The bulkhead of a solid refuse transport vehicle of the type having a tilting bucket and a tilting packer plate the free end edge of which discharges the contents of the bucket is improved by providing the packer plate with a convex protrusion extending transversely of the packer plate and disposed near the discharge opening, to improve the pre-compacting of the refuse before its discharge from the bulkhead. The improved arrangement can be combined with a further feature of the invention whereby a standard, rectangular refuse container is releasably held in abutment with the bulkhead.</p> |
