A longitudinal beam 1.3 is fixed at the position of the bottom surface of the vehicle frame 1 corresponding to the inner cavity of the limit slot 2.1. It is used to effectively support the vehicle frame 1 when the airbag suspension 4 fails, so as to avoid the phenomenon that the goods slide due to excessive inclination of the vehicle frame 1.

That is, the high-pressure gas in the air storage tank one 10 is supplied into the air bags 4.2 through the three-way joints 11 and the height valves 12, so as to realize the adjustment of each air bag suspension 4.

[0058] In order to ensure the service life of the pneumatic actuators, an air filter 8 is also provided at the front part of the vehicle frame 1 and assembled at the intake end of the air compressor 7 to ensure the purity of the compressed gas.

[0059] A regulating bolt 20.5 is threadedly sleeved in the middle of the front wall of the follow-up mechanism 20.1. That is, by adjusting the regulating bolt 20.5, the stroke of the front and rear movement of the runner 20.2 can be adjusted, so as to realize the flexible adjustment of the maximum braking force.
