TRAILER AND INTERCHANGEABLE MODULES
A trailer and interchangeable modules for transporting objects on public and private roadways are provided.
DROP DECK TRAILER WITH SUSPENSION SYSTEM, LOADING SYSTEM, AND INTERCHANGEABLE DECK SYSTEM
A drop deck trailer is provided with a deck that has the ability to raise and lower to conveniently load and unload goods and materials on the deck. A pneumatic system can raise and lower the deck and also serve as a suspension system for the trailer to dampen the relative movement between a frame and the deck. In addition, some embodiments of the trailer have a deck with a movable carriage that can move along the deck to automatically load a vehicle such as a golf cart. The carriage has rollers that secure the front wheels of a vehicle, and the carriage moves along the decks to pull the vehicle onto the deck. Moreover, various embodiments of a trailer frame can selectively connect to different decks to allow each deck to be specialized for particular goods and materials.
CONVEYOR WITH TOWABLE ELEVATING CARRIAGE
A towable conveyor for transporting and elevating articles and a method and system for towing a conveyor and conveying articles up inclines is provided. The conveyor system has an elevating carriage and a plurality of support elements for conveying articles up the conveyor. Specifically, the towable conveyor system comprises a conveyor having a support frame, a plurality of support elements, a drive end with a motor, and an idle end; an elevating carriage having a first end interconnected to the support frame of the conveyor, a second with two or more wheels, and a support member extending upwardly from the elevating carriage; a cable system for raising the conveyor into a position of use and for lowering the conveyor into a towing position; one or more locking mechanisms; and a hitch for connecting the conveyor to a rear end of a towing vehicle.
Tow behind steerable caddy trailer
A steerable caddy trailer is provided that has an improved structure including a main frame assembly, spindle assemblies attached to each end of the main frame for attachment of a wheel, a pair of swinging arms forwardly extending from the main frame and pivotally attached to the main frame, and tie rods connecting the swinging arms with the spindle assembly such that pivoting of the swinging arms steers the wheel.
Material Delivery and Waste Removal Trailer
A material delivery and waste removal trailer that includes a scissors lift mechanism mounted on a main frame of the trailer that elevates a storage bin from the main frame and retracts the storage bin to the main frame. The storage bin has a frame mounted on the scissors lift and a container mounted to the frame of the storage bin. The container of the storage bin is movable pivotally vertically away the frame of the storage bin and linearly horizontally through the frame of the storage bin. A first hydraulic cylinder controls movement of the scissors lift mechanism away from the main frame and toward the main frame and a second hydraulic cylinder controls movement of the container of the storage bin away from the frame of the storage bin and toward and the frame of the storage bin.
One-piece composite trailer
A trailer frame constructed from a polymer that cannot rust or corrode. The trailer employs a support plate that reinforces an inner and outer wall forming beams that includes a matrix of crisscrossed support walls. A top deck is releasably secured to the frame allowing refinishing of the trailer should the deck be damaged without replacement of the frame. Alternatively the top deck can be a foundation for an enclosure, shield, fence or any other known securement structures.
Trailer including articulating trailer tongue
A trailer includes a trailer bed and a trailer tongue. The trailer bed includes a trailer frame, a body, a platform, and one or more sets of two or more wheels. The trailer tongue includes a tongue arm, a trailer hitch component coupled to the tongue arm, and one or more brackets coupled to the trailer frame via a bracket shaft. The trailer tongue is couplable to a vehicle hitch component. The trailer tongue is rotatable about an axis through the bracket shaft. The one or more brackets include one or more cut-outs configured to receive a locking component. The trailer tongue is securable via the locking component at a select angle relative to a ground surface. The trailer hitch component is positionable via the locking component at a select height relative to a height of the vehicle hitch component based on the angle relative to the ground surface.
Flooring apparatus and method of manufacture
A flooring apparatus and method of making the same are provided. The apparatus and method, in one embodiment, may include providing an elongated member having a top surface. A first adhesive is deposited about a perimeter of the top surface of the elongated member. A second adhesive is deposited within the perimeter of the top surface of the elongated member, with the second adhesive having a lower viscosity than the first adhesive and being retained within the perimeter by the first adhesive. A friction-increasing member is then heated to a pre-heat temperature. The friction-increasing member is disposed on the first and second adhesive to form the flooring apparatus. The flooring apparatus is then cured at a curing temperature, in one embodiment, that is greater than the pre-heat temperature.
CONNECTORS FOR TRAILER WALLS AND METHOD OF INSTALLATION THEREOF
A connector configured to secure laminate walls of a vehicle trailer, the connector comprising a first cavity and a second cavity disposed with about 90-degree with the first cavity, each cavity comprising a pair of lateral walls and a bottom wall. The connector may further comprise an inclined portion with a slot located between a lateral wall of each cavities, the inclined portion creating another cavity wherein miscellaneous objects such as wires or hooks may be installed. A cover portion may be installed over the inclined portion to cover the slot for visual and practical effects. One cavity may be configured to receive a frame component, said frame component generally having bigger dimensions.
