Flatbed semi trailer description guide
There are many types of flatbed semi trailers and a wide range of application scenarios. Today we will explain in detail the types, applications, operations, advantages and so on of flatbed trailers. Know what to choose when we choose a trailer.

A drawbar flatbed semi trailer is a flatbed semi trailer with at least two axles. It has an axle that can be turned 180 degrees; it is connected to the flatbed semi trailer through an angularly movable drawbar; the drawbar can move vertically and is connected to the chassis, so it cannot bear any vertical force. A semi-trailer with a concealed stand also acts as a drawbar flatbed semi trailer.

A universal drawbar flatbed semi trailer is a towed flatbed semi trailer that carries cargo in an open (flat) or closed (box) cargo space. The material used for the body of the flatbed semi trailer is heavy steel, which is often referred to as: heavy flatbed semi trailer. It is likened to a large and heavy-duty flatbed semi trailer with a relatively strong carrying capacity. Call it a heavy steel flatbed semi trailer. Chonggang flatbed semi trailer is generally used for industrial large-tonnage cargo transportation, which can be turned over in the factory, or the goods can be transported on the road in the middle.

The scope of application of Chonggang flatbed semi trailer: suitable for short-distance transfer, warehouse transfer, machinery, logistics, offline and other operations and transportation of heavy products.


 


Portindustrial and mining flatbed semi trailer

This is the portindustrial and mining flatbed semi trailer, which is mainly used for shipyards, port machinery manufacturers, handling large equipment such as ship sections, steel plates, tubular parts, logs, large diesel engine equipment, etc. Its biggest feature is its large carrying capacity and large size. The above picture is an example. The rated load of this vehicle is 150 tons, its length is 12 meters, and its width is 3.5 meters. Because of its long length, it is specially designed to be arched, which strengthens the bending resistance. Design, the arch design on bridges, vehicles and cranes is used here.


Four wheel steering flatbed semi trailer

As shown in the figure below, it is a flatbed semi trailer. The feature of the modified trailer is reverse steering, which aims to improve the maneuverability at low speeds. The four-wheel steering can reduce the turning radius of the vehicle when turning at low speeds. At low speeds, the flatbed semi trailer can reduce the turning radius by up to 20% due to the reverse steering of the rear wheels. The large flatbed semi trailer has the maneuverability and parking agility of a small vehicle. The trailer capacity of the vehicle has been improved. By steering the rear axle to the steering traction of the trailer, the four-wheel steering system greatly improves the maneuverability, stability and safety of the vehicle trailer. This technology is deeply loved by foreign companies.

Ultra-low flatbed semi trailer

  • Four-wheel steering ultra-low flatbed semi trailer, ultra-low flatbed semi trailer chassis is very low, convenient for forklift loading and unloading goods.

  • Ultra-low traction flatbed semi trailer is a kind of towing vehicle used for factory, logistics, port transportation. It is a non-standard vehicle, and the load capacity and external dimensions can be determined according to the needs of customers.

Luggage flatbed semi trailer bulk cargo flatbed semi trailer

As the name suggests, a luggage flatbed semi trailer refers to a vehicle specially designed for towing luggage. Although the vehicle is light and flexible, although the load capacity is not large, it can be connected section by section to form a flatbed semi trailer group, thus weakening the disadvantage of small load capacity. Also known as a bulk flatbed semi trailer, the vehicle transports bulk cargo - a four-sided fence that needs to be customized for the actual cargo. Main use occasions: airports, railway stations, bus stations, ports and other logistics places.

Canopy flatbed semi trailer

Similarly, the reason why it is called a flatbed semi trailer is that the vehicle has a canopy and is used to transport goods that cannot be exposed to rain and sunlight. The vehicle can also be connected section by section to form a flatbed semi trailer group. In many cases, the canopy flatbed semi trailer also has a fence, the function is the same as the luggage flatbed semi trailer, and the use occasions are not the same - airports, railway stations, bus stations, ports and other logistics places. Generally, rainproof cloth (slidable) is used on both sides of the flatbed semi trailer of the canopy, and steel plate, color steel plate or container corrugated plate is used in the rest. There are also steel plates, color steel plates or container corrugated plates. This kind of canopy flatbed semi trailer needs to design a door opening mechanism, such as rolling gates, hinged side openings, and the way of flying wings as shown in the figure below.

What precautions are needed for flatbed trucks to pull goods

  • Simply put, it is to loop the rope first, use the second loop to hook the hook and tighten it, and wrap it once on the hook. The same method goes to the next hook position in turn. The first requirement is that the rope is long enough, and the second is that the tail of the carriage is made into two large forks and pulled forward, especially the two upper corners of the cargo at the rear. Because the cargo is easy to loosen, it needs to be pulled twice.

  • Before the diesel engine stops, the flatbed semi trailer should run for 3 to 5 minutes at idle speed to reduce the speed of the supercharger and the temperature, and monitor the running sound of the supercharger. If any abnormality is found, it should be stopped for inspection. If the rotor of the turbocharger is inflexible, there is sticking or wear noise, it must be sent to a qualified repair station for repair.

Application of Flatbed Transporter
