Engineers or those with knowledge of hyraulics?
My sis and BIL are working on a hydraulic system to power a dumper for the rear beds of pick-up trucks...and are having some issues working out the kinks in the mechanism. I need someone to bounce some stuff off of...maybe get a few tips to make it all work. Anyone, anyone. Bueller, Bueller?
Re: Engineers or those with knowledge of hyraulics?
for the right price!!! just kidding... I'd have to pick up a book to re-learn stuff to help your IL's so I don't think I can help much!
Yep, they want it to tilt. She's sending me pics tonight...I'll post them and pick your brains some more! lol
ETA: I just got off the phone with her. She says that the cylinder comes out and hits a pivot which is supposed to then pull the arms up but they need it to pull the arms up right away (she describes that instead of coming "out and up" and they need it to "straight up". As they have it built right now, the arms will come up but it will not pull up the bottom part. Picture a "Z", it's only making the top half of the Z, not the bottom half.
Here's a link to the design they are trying to re-create:

oh how my engineering degree has failed me... I have no clue Mel. But I hope they can figure it out!!!
Tell them to post it on fb, you would be surprised how many people you are friends with have hidden talents and interests, you never know who may have the idea that will figure it out for them!
