A motorized dump-type vehicle is provided having a chassis frame, a gasoline engine mounted on said frame, a dump container pivotally mounted on the front of said frame and a hydraulic system enabling said container to be raised and lowered by a hydraulic cylinder and said vehicle to be driven in either forward or reverse directions and braked by hydraulic drive motors. The hydraulic fluid is cooled by an oil reservoir tank forming a structural part of the frame and positioned such that heat from the hydraulic fluid can dissipate itself in the container and its contents.

A motorized dump-type vehicle for on-the-job transporting of concrete or other materials, comprising: (a) a rectangular metal formed chassis frame having integrally-joined side, front and rear members defining in transit front end rear ends thereof; (b) a gasoline engine mounted above and on the rear end of said frame; (c) an open top dump container having side and bottom walls with at least the bottom wall being formed of a heat conducting material, said container being supported on said frame forwardly of said engine and having a bottom front end portion pivotally mounted on the front end of said frame; (d) a pair of oppositely positioned hydraulic drive motors secured to said frame below the front end thereof; (e) a pair of front driving ground-engaging wheels located on opposite sides of said frame front end and each said wheel being drivingly connected to a respective said hydraulic drive motor enabling said wheels to be driven thereby; (f) a single hydraulic piston/cylinder having one end pivotally mounted on said frame centrally of the width thereof and the opposite end pivotally connected to the bottom wall of said container centrally of the sides thereof enabling said container to be raised and lowered by admitting pressurized fluid to one side or the other of said piston/cylinder; (g) rear ground-engaging wheel means mounted below and centrally of the rear end of said frame on support means enabling said rear wheel means to swivel about a vertical axis passing through said support means and through said engine for steering said vehicle; (h) a hydraulic fluid tank secured to said frame between the side members thereof and structurally reinforcing said frame, said tank having an input connection for receiving and storing heated hydraulic fluid and an output connection for withdrawing fluid to be pumped, said tank having a top wall formed of heat conducting material positioned so as to be immediately below and covered by the bottom wall of said container when said container is in its transport position thereby enabling heat stored in said tank to be dissipated through said heat conducting tank top wall and heat conducting bottom wall of said container and transferred to cooler material being transported in said container; (i) an adjustable dump oil mounted on said frame and drivingly connected to said engine, said pump having a pump input connecting to the output connection of said tank and a pump output connection; and (j) a hydraulic valve and conduit system connected between said pump output connection and said tank input connection including a first lever-controlled valve connected by conduit to said piston/cylinder for raising and lowering said container and a second lever-controlled valve connected by conduit to said hydraulic drive motor means for forward and reverse driving of said front wheels.
