TRANSPORTING BUTT-JOINING TRUCK Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: transport engineering. SUBSTANCE: truck has chassis. Beds with mechanism for their movement are mounted on chassis frame. A frame consists of two parts coupled with each other by means of telescopic rod with mechanism for its fastening. One part of a frame is fastened to immovable part of a telescopic rod. The other part of a frame is articulated to an extensible part of telescopic rod for rotation in a cross vertical plane about geometric axis of a rod. Beds are placed in each rod section and each of them consists of rotating in horizontal plane basis, pillar fixed on a basis, levers. Lever lower ends are hinged to the pillar lower part. Lever upper ends are provided with supporting rolls and are mounted for radiating movement in vertical cross plane with the help of mechanism regulating levers slope. Mechanism is a set of turnbuckles with their upper ends fixed on a pillar upper part, and the lower ones mounted for engagement with the lever upper ends. Rod of one of the Beds is set up on mentioned basis for rotation in longitudinal vertical plane and is provided with regulated spring unit retaining it in vertical position. EFFECT: improved design. 2 dwg
