REFUSE COLLECTING VEHICLE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce noise by driving a refuse loading device only by electric power stored in advance, while preventing the deterioration in a battery by reducing a burden of the battery from a high load in a loading cycle. SOLUTION: This refuse collecting vehicle includes the refuse loading device 4, an electric motor 7 for driving the refuse loading device, the battery 8, a capacitor 11 and a controller 12. The controller drives the electric motor by supplying the electric power to the electric motor from the battery and the capacitor at the relatively high timing of a loading load of refuse on the refuse loading device, and supplies the electric power to the electric motor from the battery at the relatively low timing of the loading load, and charges the capacitor by the electric power of the battery. High-low two pressure switches for detecting hydraulic pressure are also provided on a hydraulic circuit of the refuse loading device, and the controller determines the loading load based on the operation of the pressure switches.
