ELECTRIC REFUSE VEHICLE BATTERY EXCHANGE AND TRAILER

Abstract:

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a refuse container coupled to the chassis, a tractive assembly coupled to the chassis and configured to propel the refuse vehicle, and an electric energy system configured to provide electrical energy to drive the tractive assembly. In a first configuration, a first energy system is removably coupled to the chassis and configured to provide the electrical energy to the electric energy system and in a second configuration, the first energy system is removed from the chassis and replaced with a second energy system, the second energy system removably coupled to the chassis and configured to provide the electrical energy to the electric energy system.
