Abstract
A trailer and a demountable container for transporting loose products or refuse is disclosed herein. The container has an internal ejector slidable over its entire length for ejecting the contents therein. The trailer has mounted on its bed a centering relief longitudinally positioning the container, a pin engaging an aperture in the front of the container holds the container in a lateral position, and a hydraulic ram for moving the internal ejector from the front of the container to the rear. A guide, part on the trailer bed and part in the container, supports the hydraulic ram at intermediate points along its length to prevent the ram from bending or buckling as it is being extended. Coupling and alignment of the mechanical parts and hydraulic ram is insured automatically with the placement of the container on the bed of the trailer.
