Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of semi-trailer suspensions, in particular to a high-load three-axle semi-trailer suspension structure. Background Art
[0002] The semi-trailer suspension is an essential component of the semi-trailer, connecting the frame and wheels. It supports the vehicle body, cushions vibrations, and transmits loads. Depending on their structure and performance, semi-trailer suspensions can be categorized into several types, such as leaf spring suspension, which boasts low cost, reliable operation, and easy maintenance.
[0003] The traditional leaf spring semi-trailer suspension structure is relatively simple, consisting primarily of leaf springs, suspension supports, and connecting rods. This structure has a relatively simple force transmission path and lacks effective buffering and shock absorption mechanisms, making the leaf springs prone to bending and breaking under heavy loads. Therefore, a new high-load three-axle semi-trailer suspension structure was proposed. This design utilizes a unique three-axle, multiple leaf spring, and shock absorber design to effectively address these issues. Utility Model Content

The bottom of the upper crossbeam is fixedly connected to the fixing sleeve, and the bottom surface of the upper crossbeam is mounted with a joint. A leaf spring is movably connected to the inner side of the joint, and the other end of the leaf spring is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixing sleeve.
[0007] The leaf spring is formed by stacking a number of bent steel plates, and a lower crossbeam is abutted below the middle section of the leaf spring;

[0014] It has strong bearing capacity and can withstand large vertical loads and lateral forces.

[0018] Therefore, the improved three-axle semi-trailer suspension structure is a suspension structure with high load capacity and high bearing capacity.

[0020] Preferably, from any of the above solutions, the positioning sleeve is U-shaped, the shock absorbers are arranged obliquely, and the angles between adjacent shock absorbers are obtuse angles.
[0021] Preferably, any of the above solutions is provided with six shock absorbers in total and three of them form a group, and the wheel hub is located on the outside of the lower cross beam.
[0022] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0023] The suspension structure of this high-load three-axle semi-trailer features leaf spring design, shock absorber structure and distribution, improved design of the three main axles, and the use of multiple leaf springs between the upper and lower crossbeams.

[0035] As Figure 1-4 shown, the suspension structure of this high-load three-axle semi-trailer includes an upper crossbeam 1, a fixed sleeve 2, and a joint 3.

The inner side of the joint 3 is movably connected to a leaf spring 4, and the other end of the leaf spring 4 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixed sleeve 2;
[0036] The leaf spring 4 is formed by laminating several bent steel plates, and the lower part of the middle section of the leaf spring 4 abuts against a lower crossbeam 5;
[0037] The surface of the lower crossbeam 5 is fixedly connected to a positioning sleeve 6, and the middle section of the leaf spring 4 is located inside the positioning sleeve 6;
[0038] The inner side of the upper crossbeam 1 is movably connected to a shock absorber 7, and the other end of the shock absorber 7 is movably connected to the inner side of the lower crossbeam 5;
[0039] Three main shafts 8 are movably connected to the lower crossbeam 5, and hubs 9 are installed at both ends of the main shafts 8.
[0040] Embodiment 1: The upper crossbeam 1 is located directly above the lower crossbeam 5, and the length of the upper crossbeam 1 is greater than the length of the lower crossbeam 5. This structure is the suspension structure of a semi-trailer, which is a three-axle structure with a total of three main shafts 8. In this suspension structure, the main shafts 8 and the upper crossbeam 1 and the lower crossbeam 5 are all in a square-eye shape structure, with a compact structure and good stability, and can effectively bear the loads from all directions, including longitudinal, transverse, and vertical forces. This design can reduce the shaking and bumping of the vehicle during driving, improve the smoothness and stability of driving. It has a strong bearing capacity and can bear large vertical loads and lateral forces.
[0041] Embodiment 2: The upper crossbeam 1 is perpendicular to the main shaft 8. The bending part of the leaf spring 4 faces downward, and the number of leaf springs 4 is six and is divided into two groups. The shape of the positioning sleeve 6 is U-shaped, the shock absorber 7 is inclined, and the included angle between adjacent shock absorbers 7 is an obtuse angle. A total of six shock absorbers 7 are provided and are grouped in threes, and the hubs 9 are located outside the lower crossbeam 5.
[0042] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows:
[0043] S1, the lower crossbeam 5 is movably connected to the main shaft 8, and the hubs at both ends of the main shaft 8 are used to mount tires;
[0044] S2. The upper crossbeam 1 is movably connected to the leaf spring 4 through the joint 3. The bent part of the leaf spring 4 abuts the lower crossbeam 5. The other end of the leaf spring 4 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixed sleeve 2. The root of the shock absorber 7 is movably connected to the inner side of the upper crossbeam 1. The shock absorbers 7 form an obtuse angle with each other. The other end of the shock absorber 7 is movably connected to the lower crossbeam 5.
[0045] S3. The linkage of the three main shafts 8 is realized, and the heavy-loaded semi-trailer has a stronger adaptability to the undulating terrain, ensuring the uniform distribution of the load, and not generating excessive longitudinal stress when the longitudinal displacement of a single main shaft 8 is large.
[0046] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0047] The suspension structure of this high-load three-axle semi-trailer features an improved design of leaf springs 4, the structure and distribution of shock absorbers 7, and three main axles 8. Multiple sets of leaf springs 4 are used as connections between the upper crossbeam 1 and the lower crossbeam 5. The leaf springs 4 have a high load-bearing capacity and can withstand large vertical loads, allowing the trailer to remain stable even under heavy loads.
[0048] Furthermore, multiple shock absorbers 7 are used to connect the upper crossbeam 1 and the lower crossbeam 5. These shock absorbers 7 are tilted, with adjacent shock absorbers 7 forming an obtuse angle. This obtuse angle between the shock absorbers 7 better distributes and disperses vertical loads. This means the suspension system can withstand greater weight, improving the load-bearing capacity of the three-axle semi-trailer.
[0049] Therefore, the improved three-axle semi-trailer suspension structure is a suspension structure with high load capacity and high bearing capacity.
