Summary
-
1.
For the conditions of maximum filling with minimum energy consumption, the optimal bucket hinge height is about half the radius of swivel.
-
2.
Good filling of the bucket can be obtained not only with combined but also with separate scooping, given the necessary bucket trajectory, by adjusting the hinge height.
