The hydraulic cylinder 80 remains under pressure to retain the latch in its unlocked position until the bed is lowered to its lowermost position and the tailgate has swung inwardly against the end of the truck bed. At Consolidated Truck Equipment our mission is: *To perform for our customers the highest level of quality services at fair and market competitive prices. When shaft 71 is rotated in the counter-clockwise direction during the operation of mechanism 62, hook 64 is disengaged from pin 72 on the tailgate, and when the shaft is rotated in the clockwise direction, hook 64 is moved to the position to engage the pin and hold the tailgate in closed position. As the bed is being raised, the hydraulic pressure in cylinder 80 causes the piston 82 and rod 84 to move from the positions shown in FIGURE 3 to the right, thereby rotating shafts 86 and 120 in the clockwise direction, as viewed in FIGURES 4 and 5, causing lever 132 to move downwardly from its over-center position, and thence moving rod 134 to the right. The latch, as shown in the drawings, consists of a hook 64 riding on guide pin 66 and connected to lever 68 by hook lever 70, lever 68 being pivotally connected to hook lever 70 and rigidly connected to a rotatable operating shaft 71. In the truck shown in the drawings, the bed is raised by a hydraulic cylinder 30 secured to frame 20 by a support member 32 to which the hydraulic cylinder is pivoted by pivot means 34. Regular price: $37.50. When the bed is lowered, the tailgate swings inwardly to its fully closed position, and upon release of the hydraulic fluid in cylinder by actuation of valve 142, springs 114 and 116 move lever 132 to its overcenter position and rod 134 to the left to bring hook 64 downwardly into engagement with pin 72, thus locking the tailgate closed.

Need A 2 Way Tailgate For Dump Truck -----I'm having a dump box fabed up for a chassis we just bought, and we want to have a two way dump gate so you can dump the normal way (hinged at the top) and so you can drop the gate like a pickup truck (hinged at the bottom) We have two dumps like this know made by Rugby. Referring more specifically to the drawings, and to FIGURES 1 and 2 in particular, numeral 10' designates generally a dump truck having a cab 12, dump bed or body 14, bed lifting mechanism 16, and the present tailgate operating mechanism 18. When the rod and lever 132 are in this position, hook 64 is in its lowermost position with its free and engaging pin 72 and retaining the tailgate in closed position. The foregoing parts of the truck may be considered conventional for the purpose of the description herein. The bed is provided with a tailgate 54 pivoted to the upper rear edge of the sides of the bed at pivot means 56, and hence swings outwardly at the bottom from the position shown in FIGURE 1 to the position shown in FIGURE 2, to permit discharge of the load from the bed.
