Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semi-trailers, in particular to a combined suspension assembly for a semi-trailer. Background Art
[0002] A semi-trailer is a trailer with the axle placed behind the center of gravity of the vehicle (when the vehicle is evenly loaded) and equipped with a coupling device that can transmit horizontal and vertical forces to the tractor. Semi-trailers are generally three-axle semi-trailers, which are divided into many types, such as 11-meter warehouse semi-trailers, 13-meter warehouse semi-trailers, low-bed semi-trailers, etc. It is a heavy-duty transportation vehicle connected to the semi-trailer head through a traction pin.
[0003] A semitrailer is a trailer with the axle placed behind the center of gravity of the vehicle (when the vehicle is evenly loaded) and equipped with a hitch that can transmit horizontal or vertical forces to the towing vehicle.
[0004] Semi-trailers are mainly used to transport large goods that are large in size and difficult to disassemble, such as excavators, etc. The fence type is more suitable for pulling fresh goods, such as vegetables and fruits. The box type is more suitable for pulling bulk goods and moisture-proof and valuable goods, etc. The detailed classification is as follows: dump semi-trailer, low-bed semi-trailer, fence semi-trailer, container semi-trailer, tank semi-trailer, box semi-trailer, dump semi-trailer, oil tanker semi-trailer, ultra-light semi-trailer, vehicle transport semi-trailer, powder and particle material transport semi-trailer, ash loading semi-trailer, chemical liquid transport semi-trailer, ordinary liquid cargo transport semi-trailer, heavy-duty low-bed semi-trailer, fence semi-trailer, gooseneck semi-trailer, skeleton container transport semi-trailer, 17.5-meter low-bed semi-trailer, etc.
[0005] Compared with "single-type" vehicles, semi-trailers can improve the comprehensive economic benefits of road transportation, increase transportation efficiency by 30-50%, reduce costs by 30-40%, and reduce fuel consumption by 20-30%. More importantly, the use of semi-trailers can also promote the organizational form of my country's logistics to a certain extent.
[0006] In the market, the semi-trailer suspension is a leaf spring straight installation. Conventional models use a straight installation, that is, the leaf spring is installed on the bridge axle and fixed with a U-shaped wire. It cannot be used in some models that require ultra-low suspension. Therefore, the wheelbase of the powder tank semi-trailer is relatively long, which is not conducive to the vehicle's form on mountain roads. In addition, the vehicle has a high center of gravity, and it is easy to roll over when turning, which cannot meet people's needs. Summary of the invention
[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the existing defects and provide a semi-trailer combined suspension assembly with a simple structure. The assembly can solve the requirement of the ultra-low distance between the middle height of the tank truck and the bridge axle, and can effectively shorten the wheelbase of the powder tank semi-trailer, which is beneficial for driving in mountainous areas. It is also beneficial for lowering the center of gravity of the whole vehicle, reducing the possibility of rollover of the whole vehicle when turning, and is more conducive to driving stability, which can effectively solve the problems in the background technology.
[0008] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a semi-trailer combined suspension assembly, including ordinary suspensions, wherein there are three ordinary suspensions, an ordinary balancing arm is fixed on the middle ordinary suspension, a special-shaped balancing arm is provided on the ordinary suspension on the left, an ordinary leaf spring is provided between the special-shaped balancing arm and the ordinary balancing arm, and an ordinary leaf spring is also provided between the ordinary balancing arm and the ordinary suspension on the right, the lower end centers of the two ordinary leaf springs are connected with a bridge shaft through two U-shaped fixing screws, an ordinary pull rod is provided between one side of the two bridge shafts and the ordinary suspension adjacent to the left side thereof, an inverted suspension bracket is provided on the left side of the ordinary suspension on the left, an inverted leaf spring is provided between the inverted suspension bracket and the lower end of the special-shaped balancing arm, an bridge shaft is fixed to the center of the upper surface of the inverted leaf spring through another two U-shaped fixing screws, each bridge shaft is evenly provided with steel rims and tires, and an inverted suspension pull rod is provided between one side of the bridge shaft on the inverted leaf spring and the inverted suspension bracket.
[0009] Furthermore, the bridge axle is a square tubular structure, and the lower ends of the three bridge axles are located on the same plane. The lower ends of the wheels are kept consistent by the lower ends of the three bridge axles being located on the same plane.
[0010] Furthermore, both ends of the inverted suspension rod and the ordinary rod are respectively provided with through holes, and the interior of the through holes is connected with short shafts through bearings. One end of the short shaft is connected to the inverted suspension bracket or the ordinary suspension through the short shaft so that the inverted suspension rod and the ordinary rod can rotate.
[0011] Furthermore, the special-shaped balancing arm is a Z-shaped structure, and the special-shaped balancing arm is rotatably connected to the common suspension through a rotating shaft.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the lower ends of the wheels are kept consistent by locating the lower ends of the three bridge axles on the same plane, the reversed suspension tie rods and the ordinary tie rods can be rotated by the short axle connection, and the center of gravity of the tank truck can be effectively lowered by the reversed suspension bracket and the reversed leaf spring, thereby making the tank truck more stable during driving.
