[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the protection scope of the utility model.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1-4A semi-trailer tarpaulin retraction device includes a load-bearing component and a support component. The load-bearing component is arranged in two symmetrical sets. The load-bearing component includes a base plate 1, side plates 2, a moving component, a turntable 3, and a first spline 4. The moving component is arranged at the four corners below the base plate 1. The side plates 2 are also arranged on the base plate 1. The turntable 3 is also arranged on the side plates 2. The first spline 4 is arranged on one side of the two sets of turntables 3 that are close to each other. The support component includes a threaded rod 5 and a sleeve 6. The sleeve 6 is arranged in two symmetrical sets. The sleeve 6 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 5. The sleeve 6 is also provided with a first keyway that matches the first spline 4.

[0023] Two sets of load-bearing components stand upright on the ground via movable components (casters 7 and brakes 8) below the base plate 1. Side plates 2 are vertically mounted on the base plate 1, and turntables 3 are installed in appropriate positions on the side plates 2. The first splines 4 on opposite sides of the two sets of turntables 3 are ready for docking. The positive and negative threaded rods 5 of the support components are located in the middle, and two sets of sleeves 6 are threaded to the positive and negative threaded rods 5 from both sides, with the first keyway on the sleeves 6 aligned with the first spline 4 of the turntable 3, completing the initial assembly and allowing the entire device to form a cooperating whole.

[0024] Use the casters 7 to push the device to a suitable position next to the semi-trailer, and then press the brake 8 to secure it. The operator holds the handle 9, confirms that the device is placed stably, and prepares to unfold and retract the tent fabric.

[0025] The operator inserts the second spline 12 on the handle 11 into the protruding second keyway of the turntable 3 to establish a stable connection. Holding the handle 9 to stabilize the device, the operator rotates the handle 11 with the other hand, causing the turntable 3 to rotate accordingly. Because the turntable 3 and the sleeve 6 are tightly fitted through the first spline 4 and the first keyway, the rotational force of the turntable 3 is transmitted to the sleeve 6, causing the sleeve 6 to rotate synchronously with the turntable 3.

[0026] The sleeve 6 and the threaded rod 5 are connected by threads. Based on the characteristics of the threaded rod 5, when the sleeve 6 rotates, the two sets of symmetrically arranged sleeves 6 will move in a straight line towards or in the opposite direction along the threaded rod 5. For example, rotating the turntable 3 clockwise will cause the sleeve 6 to move towards the tent fabric; rotating it counterclockwise will do the opposite.

[0027] To unfold the tent fabric, turn handle 11 in the opposite direction. The sleeve 6 moves away from the direction of the tent fabric, loosening one end of the tent fabric connected to the sleeve 6. As the sleeve 6 continues to move backward, the tent fabric gradually unfolds, covering the semi-trailer cargo box. The load-bearing components on both sides move synchronously, pulling the tent fabric evenly from both sides. The tent fabric is smoothly laid out in the predetermined direction, relying on precise force transmission to avoid local accumulation or twisting.

[0028] When it is needed to roll up, the handle 11 is rotated forward, the sleeve 6 moves towards the tent cloth, and the tent cloth is gradually pulled in. The two sleeves 6 are synchronously contracted, and the pulling force is uniformly applied from both sides to the middle, so that the tent cloth is neatly rolled up little by little. The cooperation among the forward and reverse screw rod 5, the sleeve 6 and the rotating disc 3 is relied on throughout the process, so that the tent cloth is accurately controlled to be rolled up and down, and the operation is flexibly completed according to the size of the semitrailer carriage;

[0029] During the rolling up and down process, the support blocks 13 on both sides of the side plate 2 far away from the end of the support assembly are in contact with the ground, and the ground together with the bottom plate 1 shares the pulling force of the tent cloth, so that the device is prevented from being unbalanced and falling due to the large area and heavy weight of the tent cloth, and the whole rolling up and down operation is safely and stably continued;

[0030] The friction sleeve 10 on the handrail 9 increases the friction force of the hand, so that the handrail 9 is more stably held to apply force and use force. When the device is moved, the universal wheel 7 is convenient to push, the brake 8 is locked after reaching the position, the position is maintained stable during the operation, and the rolling up and down operation is assisted in all directions.

[0031] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that the specific features, structures or characteristics described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the application. The term "embodiment" appearing in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, and does not particularly limit the independence or association between the other embodiments. In principle, in this application, as long as there is no technical contradiction or conflict, each technical feature mentioned in each embodiment can be combined in any way to form a corresponding implementable technical solution.

[0032] Unless otherwise defined, the meaning of the technical terms used in this document is the same as that generally understood by those skilled in the art to which the application belongs; the use of related terms in this document is only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and is not intended to limit the application.
