[0036] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.
[0037] Reference Figures 1 to 6As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a fixing device for a car trailer, comprising: a base plate 100, a lifting plate 300, a shielding plate 400, and a positioning part 500. The base plate 100 is fixedly connected to a trailer frame 200, which is a chassis of an existing flatbed trailer or truck. The present invention is applicable to modifying existing trailer frames 200 to reduce manufacturing and promotion costs. A first driving member 110 is provided on the base plate 100; the first driving member 110 is a hydraulic cylinder. To save space above the trailer frame 200, the fixed end of the first driving member 110 is located below the base plate 100, and the telescopic end of the first driving member 110 passes through the base plate 100 and is connected to the lifting plate 300. The lifting plate 300 has a raised position and a lowered position. The lifting plate 300 is parallel to the base plate 100. The lifting plate 300 is connected to the first driving member 110. The first driving member 110 can drive the lifting plate 300 to move up and down, thereby switching the lifting plate 300 between the lifting position and the lowering position. The side of the lifting plate 300 is connected to the second driving member 310, which is a hydraulic cylinder. The lifting plate 300 has a blocking hole 320; the blocking plate 400 is slidably connected to the lifting plate 300, the blocking plate 400 is always located above the lifting plate 300 and can move back and forth along the lifting plate 300, the blocking plate 400 closes the blocking hole 320 in the vertical direction, and the blocking plate 400 remains closed in the vertical direction during the back and forth movement, the blocking plate 400 has a clearance hole 410, the second driving member 310 is used to drive the blocking plate 400 to move back and forth; the positioning part 500 is slidably connected to the base plate 100, the positioning part 500 is located in the clearance hole 410, the blocking plate 400 can drive the positioning part 500 to move back and forth when it moves back and forth, the positioning part 500 is used to fix the tires of the transported vehicle. The front-to-back dimension of the positioning part 500 is smaller than that of the blocking hole 320, allowing the positioning part 500 to move back and forth within the blocking hole 320. Therefore, when the position of the positioning part 500 is adjusted by the second drive member 310, the blocking hole 320 is always blocked by the blocking plate 400, enabling the transported vehicle to travel normally on the lifting platform 300 or be towed. When the lifting platform 300 is in the raised position, the upper end of the clearance hole 410 is flush with the upper end of the positioning part 500, allowing the transported vehicle to move smoothly onto the lifting platform 300. When the lifting platform 300 is in the lowered position, the positioning part 500 extends upward from the clearance hole 410, forming a groove for positioning the tires of the transported vehicle. The front-to-back movement of the positioning part 500 accommodates vehicles of different sizes. A strap is also connected to the positioning part 500 for securing the tires of the transported vehicle. The strap is prior art and will not be described in detail.
[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 3As shown, it can be understood that there are four symmetrically arranged first driving components 110. The four first driving components 110 move up and down synchronously so that the lifting plate 300 can remain horizontal during the up and down movement. It is foreseeable that the more first driving components 110 there are, the higher the maximum load capacity of the lifting plate 300, and the smoother the up and down movement of the lifting plate 300. However, too many first driving components 110 will increase the cost of the equipment. Therefore, in this embodiment, four first driving components 110 are selected to drive the lifting plate 300 to move up and down. Under the premise of controlling costs, the load capacity and lifting stability of the lifting plate 300 are guaranteed.
[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it can be understood that there are two second driving components 310, which are respectively installed on the left and right sides of the lifting plate 300. The fixed end of the second driving component 310 is bolted to the side of the lifting plate 300, and the telescopic end of the second driving component 310 is screwed to the left and right sides of the baffle plate 400. The two second driving components 310 move synchronously, so that the baffle plate 400 moves smoothly back and forth. The stroke of the second driving component 310 determines the stroke of the baffle plate 400, and therefore the stroke of the second driving component 310 also determines the adjustment range of the positioning part 500. Therefore, the stroke of the second driving component 310 is not less than 1 meter.
[0040] Reference Figures 2 to 6 As shown, a first fixed platform 120 is fixedly installed on the base plate 100. The first fixed platform 120 is welded to the upper end of the base plate 100. A fixing hole 330 is provided on the lifting plate 300, which is vertically aligned with the base plate 100. When the lifting plate 300 is in the raised position, the upper end of the first fixed platform is at the same height as the upper end of the lifting plate 300, allowing the transported vehicle to travel or be towed normally on the lifting plate 300 without falling into the fixing hole 330. The first fixed platform 120 is located in the fixing hole 330. A second fixed platform 340 is welded above the lifting plate 300, and the second fixed platform 340 is the same size as the first fixed platform 120. The second fixed platform 340 is located in front of the first fixed platform 120. The first fixed platform 120 and the second fixed platform 340 cooperate to secure the tires of the transported vehicle. Straps are also provided on the first fixed platform 120 and the second fixed platform 340 for securing the tires of the transported vehicle. The straps are existing technology and will not be described in detail. The positions of the first fixing platform 120 and the second fixing platform 340 in the front-rear direction remain unchanged. By changing the position of the positioning part 500 in the front-rear direction, it can be adapted to different vehicles.
[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 6As shown, it can be understood that a winch device 600 is provided on the front side of the base plate 100. The winch device 600 is a common electric winch. The installation method and specific structure of the winch device 600 are existing technologies and will not be described in detail. The winch device 600 is used to tow the vehicle being transported. When the vehicle to be transported loses power and cannot move, it can be towed by the winch device 600 to move the vehicle to above the lifting platform 300.
[0042] Refer to 2 to Figure 6 As shown, the positioning part 500 includes a first moving part 510 and a second moving part 520, with a groove for tire insertion formed between the first moving part 510 and the second moving part 520. A middle plate 411 is provided in the middle of the clearance hole 410, dividing the clearance hole 410 into a front hole 412 and a rear hole 413 in the front-rear direction. The first moving part 510 and the second moving part 520 are located in the front hole 412 and the rear hole 413, respectively. When the lifting plate 300 is in the lifted position, the tops of both the first moving part 510 and the second moving part 520 are the same as the baffle plate 400, so that the vehicle being transported can move smoothly onto the lifting plate 300 without being blocked by the clearance hole 410. It is foreseeable that multiple positioning parts 500 can be provided to accommodate vehicles with different numbers of tires. In this embodiment, two positioning parts 500 are provided.
[0043] It is easy to imagine that the left and right dimensions of the first moving part 510, the second moving part 520, the first fixed platform 120, and the second fixed platform 340 need to match the common tire sizes on the market. Therefore, the left and right dimensions of the first moving part 510, the second moving part 520, the first fixed platform 120, and the second fixed platform 340 are 30cm to 60cm.
[0044] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, it can be understood that multiple linear guides 700 extending forward and backward are bolted to the base plate 100. The linear guides 700 are commonly used linear guides. The specific structure and installation method of the linear guides are existing technology and will not be described in detail here. The first moving part 510 and the second moving part 520 are slidably connected to the linear guides 700. The number of linear guides 700 corresponding to each first moving part 510 or second moving part 520 should be greater than one. Using multiple linear guides 700 facilitates the smooth movement of the first moving part 510 and the second moving part 520.
[0045] Reference Figures 1 to 6As shown, it can be understood that the upper left and right sides of the lifting plate 300 are provided with sliding grooves 800, and the sliding grooves 800 are provided with grease to reduce friction. The left and right ends of the baffle plate 400 are respectively embedded in the sliding grooves 800. The sliding grooves 800 limit the movement of the baffle plate 400, so that the baffle plate 400 can only move in the front and back direction. It is foreseeable that a linear guide rail can be used to replace the sliding grooves 800 to achieve the same effect.
[0046] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, it is understood that the base plate 100 is bolted to the trailer frame 200. The base plate 100 and the trailer frame 200 can be easily modified from existing trailers by means of detachable bolts. Simply add corresponding bolt holes to the existing trailer, and the base plate 100 can be installed onto the trailer frame 200.
[0047] Reference Figure 1 As shown, it can be understood that a ramp 900 is rotatably mounted at the rear end of the trailer frame 200. The ramp 900 is used to guide the vehicle to be transported onto the floor 100. Since the height of the lifting platform 300 and the floor 100 is usually higher than the ground, the ramp 900 is used to form a slope for guidance, facilitating the transported vehicle to reach the floor 100 under its own power or driven by the winch device 600. The ramp 900 is driven to rotate by a hydraulic rod. The specific structure of the ramp 900 is prior art and will not be described in detail.
[0048] Usage steps: The second drive unit 310 is used to drive the baffle 400 to move back and forth. When the baffle 400 moves back and forth, it can drive the positioning part 500 to move back and forth. The positions of the first fixed platform 120 and the second fixed platform 340 in the front and rear directions remain unchanged. By changing the position of the positioning part 500 in the front and rear directions, it can adapt to the position of different vehicle tires. The first drive member 110 lifts the lifting plate 300, moving it to a raised position. The inclined plate 900 rotates to contact the ground, forming a ramp leading from the ground to the top of the lifting plate 300. The winch device 600 is connected to the vehicle being transported, and the winch device 600 is used to pull the vehicle onto the lifting plate 300. The first drive member 110 drives the lifting plate 300 to descend. As the lifting plate 300 descends, the first moving part 510 and the second moving part 520 extend from the front hole 412 and the rear hole 413, respectively, to limit the movement of the vehicle. The first fixed platform 120 and the second fixed platform 340 cooperate to secure the vehicle being transported. If further securing is required, straps can be used to secure the tires of the vehicle being transported to the first fixed platform 120, the second fixed platform 340, the first moving part 510, and the second moving part 520, respectively.
[0049] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
