Transport trailer with a chassis and at least one floor platform
A transport trailer having a chassis and at least one floor platform mounting to the chassis and configured to transport a load. The at least one floor platform comprises at least one main plate and a metal sheet mounting to the main plate. The at least one main plate is fabricated from a porous metal material.
SUPPORTIVE BELLY PAD FOR A ROUNDED TRAILER
A structurally supportive belly pad is connected to a rounded trailer and configured to support the same near the rear end of the trailer. The belly pad may be arcuately curved complementary to the curvature of the rounded trailer. However, if the belly pad were laid flat, it includes a pair of parallel legs aligned in a generally longitudinal direction with a plurality of transverse ribs extending therebetween. The shape of the belly pad is configured to provide structural support for the trailer which is beneficial especially when the trailer is raised and lowered, typically through hydraulic mechanisms.

FLOOR PANEL SYSTEM FOR VEHICLES
A vehicle flooring system for converting regular vehicles into wheelchair accessible vehicles. The flooring system is made up of individual flooring panels connected via a snap fit type tongue and lip connection. Each individual panel contains an integral track. The integral track forms a positive lock with the track channels. The flooring system is able to satisfy government regulations concerning seat and wheelchair location pull testing.
FLOOR ASSEMBLY AND FLOOR SECURING APPARATUS
A floor securing apparatus comprises a riser slot formed in a floor riser, extending from a top surface toward a bottom surface of the floor riser. The floor riser is configured to support a floor sheet. The apparatus further includes a key including a locking head and at least one anchor tab, where the key is slidable into the riser slot and configured to engage a portion of the floor sheet when slid into the riser slot to prevent vertical movement of the floor sheet relative to the floor riser.
Under-floor truck deck tie-down device and truck deck and truck having the same
A truck deck includes a floor that defines a cargo area on a top surface. The deck also includes a pocket disposed in the floor. The pocket defines a space disposed below the floor and a pocket opening. The deck further includes a selectively openable and closable pocket cover movable between an open position and a closed position. The pocket cover is disposed to cover the pocket in the closed position. The deck also includes a tie-down device disposed in the pocket. The tie-down device includes an attachment device, an adjustment device, and an elongated strap having an attachment end that is attached to the attachment device configured for attachment to a cargo, and an adjustment end that is attached to the adjustment device. The tie-down device is configured to adjust the length of the strap and apply a downward tensioning force to the cargo.
JOINING A RAIL MEMBER TO A COMPOSITE TRAILER STRUCTURE
A cargo vehicle configured to support cargo includes a frame assembly with at least one rail member defining a portion of an outer perimeter of the trailer. The cargo vehicle also includes a composite member adjacent to the frame assembly and a mounting member removably coupled to the at least one rail member and permanently coupled to the composite member.
COMPOSITE FLOOR WITH INTEGRATED CONDUIT
A cargo vehicle is disclosed having a composite floor assembly with at least one conduit extending along a length of the composite floor assembly. The at least one conduit may include a first internal cavity and a second internal cavity. The first internal cavity may be configured to route at least one vehicle component. The second internal cavity may be configured to receive at least one vehicle component or a plurality of mechanical fasteners. The mechanical fasteners may be used to couple a base rail to the composite floor assembly.
COMPOSITE LOAD BEARING FLOORING
A flooring member comprising: a structural member having one or more ducts extending along a length of the flooring member, each of the one or more ducts forming a hollow cavity extending along a length of each duct, the one or more ducts being integrally formed with the flooring member.
UTILITY VEHICLE DECK CORNER APPARATUS, SYSTEM AND METHOD
A corner (100) suitable for placement between first (202) and second (204) orthogonal elongate deck sides of a deck (200), including a connecting frame (104) having a first connecting side (116) and a second connecting side (118) orthogonal to each other, the first connecting side configured to connect at or near an end of the first deck side and the second connecting side configured to connect at or near an end of the second deck side; and, a removable corner cover (102) adapted to connect to one or more of the connecting frame and the first and second deck sides.
