What kind of car is a "trailer"? Very versatile
What kind of car is a trailer? On this issue, in fact, there is no unified, clear concept statement, enter "what is a trailer" in the search engine, often can find a lot of different explanations, can be summarized into the following:
1, road wrecker, also known as trailer, road rescue vehicle, towing vehicle, with lifting, pulling and lifting traction and other functions.
2, tractor, that is, commonly known as the front, such as often said "a tow a hang", refers to a tractor + a trailer.
3, no driving force of its own car bucket. It is said that in the early days, the trailer not only does not have a driving force, but also does not have its own braking force, from this point of view, there is a difference with the trailer bucket, because whether it is a semi-trailer, a full trailer or a mid-axle trailer, generally with braking function. With the continuous development of vehicle technology, some trailers have also added braking functions for safety and other factors, so the difference with the trailer bucket is not so obvious. Car owners in some areas often refer to the trailer directly as a trailer or trailer.
Although the above three models can be called "trailer", but in the vehicle market, "trailer" generally refers to the non-driving force, can independently carry the bucket. What are the common trailers?
1. Flatbed trailer
This is a more common kind of trailer, the main role is to transport goods, especially in logistics warehouses, factory parks, construction sites, airports, ports, docks, stations and other places widely used. According to the different types of goods, the tonnage is also different in size, generally concentrated in 3T-25T.
Due to different transportation needs, some flatbed trailers will also be equipped with warehouse grids, railings or car bodies.
2, agricultural trailer
Agricultural trailer refers to agricultural vehicles mainly pulled by tractors, can also be called agricultural trailers, is an important mode of mechanized transport in rural China, can give full play to the role of tractors.
According to the different application fields and application functions, agricultural trailers can be divided into many kinds, and their tonnage is generally concentrated in 2t-10t, and there are special cases. Here are some of them:
(1) Transport trailer. It is mainly used for the transportation of grain, etc., and the top part is mainly based on the column plate. Among them, small trailers are suitable for rural short-distance or field transport, and medium or large trailers are suitable for township or rural road transport.
(2) Wet and dry fertilizer sprinkling truck. Can be used for fields, orchards and other manure sprinkling fertilizer, dry fertilizer, wet fertilizer can be applied, compared to manual sprinkling, work efficiency is higher.
(3) Liquid fertilizer sprinkling truck. The function is the same as the dry and wet fertilizer sprinkling car, which is suitable for the sprinkling of liquid fertilizer, and can liberate the labor to a certain extent.
(4) Forage/straw pickup trailer. It can automatically pick up the straw scattered in the field or the grass scattered in the pasture, collect it into the carriage, the operation speed is fast, the picking efficiency is high, and even can be used to pick up the waste mulch.
(5) Agricultural machinery transport trailer. The main function is to transport agricultural machinery, such as harvesters. In order to facilitate mechanical loading and unloading, hydraulic ladder or inclined type is generally used.
3, car/engineering truck trailer. The function of this trailer is similar to the common wrecker, mainly used for hauling cars or construction machinery, but its model is tractor + trailer type. Generally designed with hydraulic ladder or lifting chassis.
4, dump trailer
Dump trailer refers to the trailer equipped with a hydraulic top, according to the different installation position of the lifting rod, it can be divided into a tipping dump trailer, a tipping dump trailer, and the tonnage size is determined according to actual needs.
5. Travel trailer
That is usually called the trailer RV, also known as the trailer, the carriage is generally designed with tables and chairs, cookware, bathroom, lighting and other special facilities, mainly used in tourism or field staff camping, some of the tonnage and volume of small, internal facilities relatively simple models can also be called camping trailer.
6, small/micro trailer
For example, livestock trailers, motorcycle trailers, Marine trailers, luggage trailers, bicycle trailers, etc., these trailers are smaller, lighter weight, and more simple and practical.
It can be seen that the application field of the trailer is very wide and the function is also very powerful. Compared with an integrated vehicle, the trailer can be attached or removed at any time, which is more flexible and more efficient.
However, due to the variety of trailers, different functions, tonnage, wheel base and other parameters are relatively small, the lack of unified standards, it is difficult to find the axle used in the market to perfectly match the spot, often need to customize production according to detailed needs.
Those brands that rely on the procurement of semi-finished products for assembly and labeling, and that mix well in the trailer rear axle market, have to give up this market because they do not have independent research and development and production capacity. This has also increased the difficulty for trailer owners to buy axles to a certain extent.
DARO Group is an enterprise engaged in the development and manufacturing of trailer axles for more than 20 years, and has made good achievements in the fields of high-bearing axle beams, lightweight trailer axles, customized production, etc. It can customize 3t-25t various types of trailer axles, which have been certified by ISO9001 quality management system, and have been exported to Europe, America, Australia and other countries for many times.
