Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a lightweight center-axle trailer platform. Background Technology
[0002] A trailer is a carrier that supports both the superstructure and the undercarriage. It must be strong enough and have a reliable connection to the tractor unit in front.
[0003] The existing lightweight center-axle trailer platform mainly consists of a center-axle trailer, subframe, towing device, braking system, electrical system, leveling mechanism, and other undercarriage mechanisms. The center-axle trailer primarily consists of a mechanical suspension system, including tires, axles, and leaf springs, enabling the trailer to move and bear loads. The subframe, as the main load-bearing structure, mainly consists of longitudinal beams, cross beams, side beams, and upper structure mounting interfaces. All these beam components are integrally welded from HG70 high-strength channel steel plates, featuring a lightweight design with a weight ≤400kg. The towing device mainly consists of a towing ring and a towing frame, welded to the subframe to form an integral structure, improving overall strength. It also includes an auxiliary support mechanism fixed to the towing device. This auxiliary support mechanism has an auxiliary support rod and a foldable auxiliary support wheel mounted on the lower part of the auxiliary support rod. When parked, the foldable auxiliary support wheel is in a supported state; when driving, the foldable auxiliary support wheel is in a folded-down state. The traction device has a traction ring and a triangular traction frame. The traction ring has a connected traction rod and a traction ring. The rear section of the traction rod is screwed with a nut. The front end of the triangular traction frame is fixed with front and rear mounting plates. A mounting sleeve is fixed between the front and rear mounting plates. The traction rod passes through the front mounting plate, the mounting sleeve and the rear mounting plate in sequence and is then locked and fixed by the nut.
[0004] The main problems with the aforementioned lightweight center-axle trailer platform are as follows: 1. The drawbar passes sequentially through the front mounting plate, mounting sleeve, and rear mounting plate before being locked in place by the nut. There is no cushioning during trailer towing, which can easily cause significant impact to the towing equipment. 2. The triangular towing frame has poor strength; when the platform bears a large load, its strength is insufficient. 3. While the foldable auxiliary support wheels of the auxiliary support mechanism can provide support when parked, the towing device may tilt downwards when the parking area is poor or the ground is uneven, which is detrimental to the connection between the towing device and the towing vehicle. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a lightweight center-axle trailer platform that does not cause a large impact on the towing equipment when the trailer is towing, and has good strength of the triangular towing frame.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a lightweight center-axle trailer platform, mainly comprising a center-axle trailer, a subframe, a traction device, a braking system, an electrical system, and a lower assembly mechanism. The traction device has a traction ring and a triangular traction frame. The traction ring has a connected traction rod and a traction ring. A nut is screwed onto the rear section of the traction rod. Front and rear mounting plates are fixed to the front end of the triangular traction frame, and a mounting sleeve is fixed between the front and rear mounting plates. The traction rod passes through the front mounting plate, the mounting sleeve, and the rear mounting plate in sequence and is then locked and fixed by the nut. The platform also includes an auxiliary support mechanism fixed to the traction device. This auxiliary support mechanism has an auxiliary support rod and a foldable auxiliary support wheel mounted on the lower part of the auxiliary support rod. The platform is characterized in that a disc spring and a washer are sequentially installed between the rear mounting plate and the nut; and multiple connecting beams are mounted on the triangular traction frame.
[0007] The lightweight center-axle trailer platform with the above structure also features a disc spring between the rear mounting plate and the nut. The disc spring has high stiffness and strong shock absorption capacity, allowing it to withstand large loads with small deformation. This prevents significant impact on the towing equipment during trailer towing. Furthermore, the disc spring occupies little space and does not affect the front layout or overall length control of the trailer. The triangular towing frame is equipped with multiple connecting crossbeams, which greatly improves the strength of the triangular towing frame and better meets the platform's load-bearing requirements.
[0008] Preferably, the number of the disc springs is two, arranged back to back.
[0009] By adopting the above-mentioned technical features, better buffering and vibration reduction effects can be achieved without affecting the front layout and overall length control of the trailer.
[0010] Furthermore, the front outer side of the triangular traction frame is fixed with a stop block.
[0011] With the above-mentioned technical features, when the safety chain is unhooked, the stop can be used to prevent the trailer from making direct contact with the tractor in front when turning.
[0012] As an improvement of this utility model, the auxiliary support mechanism further includes a lead screw lifting rod, the top end of which is fixed to the bottom end of the lead screw lifting rod, the lead screw lifting rod is fixed to the traction device, and the axes of the lead screw lifting rod and the auxiliary support rod are on the same straight line.
[0013] With the above-mentioned technical features, when the parking space is poor, the height of the traction device can be adjusted by adjusting the lead screw lifting rod, which can facilitate the connection between the traction device and the towing vehicle. Attached Figure Description
