COMPOSITE HEAVY-CARGO CARRIER Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC B60K5/08 B62D53/00 B62D59/04 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: set of inventions relates to composite heavy-cargo carrier. Said composite heavy-cargo carrier comprises first tractor (1) articulated with second tractor (2). Every tractor (1, 2) is composed of separate-control tractor (1, 2) with driver cab (3, 3′), digital communication device (4), steering wheels (5, 5′), brake system (6, 6′) and power transmission comprising engine (7, 7′), friction clutch (8, 8′) and automatic transmission (9, 9′). Said friction clutch (8, 8′) engages and disengages to transfer drive torque from said engine (7, 7′) to automatic transmission (9, 9′) while digital communication line (10) is organized by digital communication devices (4, 4') between tractors (1, 2). Control system (11) of first tractor (1) controls the load at friction clutch (8, 8′) of said first and second tractors (1, 2) with no risks of overheating of said clutches (8, 8′) at their engagement/disengagement.

EFFECT: perfected design.
