A transport system can employ a transport assembly with a main support member attached to a mounting connection, a tow connection, a suspension, and a horizontal articulation mechanism. The horizontal articulation mechanism may be configured to raise the suspension of a ground surface along a first direction and move the main support member in a second direction with the first direction being orthogonal to the second direction.

One or more flatbed trailers, load placement devices and/or collapsible bulkheads are provided. The flatbed trailer may have a lowered center of gravity and may comprise a plurality of load placement devices and a collapsible and/or crushable bulkhead disposed on a deck of the flatbed trailer to provide improved load transportation safety.

The invention relates to a heavy-load vehicle comprising at least two partial vehicles, namely a frontmost partial vehicle and a rearmost partial vehicle, said frontmost partial vehicle having connecting means, and said rearmost partial vehicle having counter-connecting means adapted and configured for cooperating with said connecting means, one of said connecting means and said counter-connecting means including an inner telescopic member guided in a hollow outer telescopic member in a telescoping manner. According to the invention said hollow outer telescopic member is integrally formed by a tubular or box-shaped central part of a partial vehicle frame of one of the partial vehicles, said hollow outer telescopic member and said inner telescopic member cooperating therewith being parts of the same partial vehicle.

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), and specifically discloses a UAV transport box. The UAV transport box has a mounting frame, a box body, a driving device, and a control system. The box body has a bottom plate and a side plate, the bottom plate is fixedly installed on the mounting frame, the UAV is arranged on the bottom plate, and the side plate can be unfolded through the driving device, so that the side plate and the bottom plate are in the same plane to form an area which is large enough to provide a suitable take-off and landing platform for the UAV, and can realize the automatic opening and closing for the UAV transport box.

The disclosure relates to a trailer for hauling tyres. The trailer includes a frame having a front end, a rear end and a pair of parallel elongate chassis rails. The trailer also includes one or more pairs of transverse rails, each pair of transverse rails being adapted to support one or more tyres in an upstanding position thereon. Each pair of transverse rails is longitudinally translatable with respect to the elongate chassis rails between the front and rear ends of the frame. Each transverse rail in the pair is independently longitudinally translatable with respect to the elongate chassis rails so that the spacing of the pair of transverse rails may be varied to suit a tyre diameter. The trailer is also provided with a tyre stillage associated with each pair of transverse rails for supporting one or more upstanding tyres thereagainst.

A trailer for carrying plate glass has an elongated deck and an elongated rigid beam that extends above the deck. The beam supports plate glass transported by the trailer. The deck and the beam may be made from aluminum.

An upper deck frame assembly for a trailer chassis includes a flushed floor section defining a first floor height, and a header section, with a header, forward of the flushed floor section and defining a second floor height above the first floor height. A towing assembly may be secured to the header. A reduced size header section increases usable floor space, and the towing assembly is securable to the header.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a trailer assembly for transporting a plurality of proppant containers along a roadway, and associated methods. The trailer assembly includes a skeletal frame having open areas between structural components to enhance weight reduction of the frame, and first, second, third, and connector sections. Additionally, the frame includes a pair of spaced-apart side rails and three or more wheel and axle assemblies to facilitate movement of the trailer assembly. The trailer assembly includes a first pair of outriggers coupled to and arranged transverse the pair of side rails, and a second pair of outriggers arranged proximate the first pair of outriggers. The outriggers have a coupling element positioned at each distal end to engage and secure a proppant container of the plurality of proppant containers to the trailer assembly. Each distal end is positioned to extend outwardly from an axis of the trailer.

A trailer includes: a chassis; a floating coupling apparatus coupled to the chassis, a portion of the floating coupling apparatus configured to move in a vertical direction relative to the chassis; a kingpin attached to the floating coupling apparatus; a displacement-sensing device positioned between an attachment portion on the chassis and an attachment portion on the floating coupling apparatus, the displacement-sensing device configured to sense a load acting on the displacement-sensing device; and a fluid system in fluid communication with the displacement-sensing device.

A heavy load transport vehicle of variable width has a chassis which has two chassis parts which each support a number of wheel arrangements arranged one behind another, wherein the two chassis parts define a transport platform for the heavy load to be transported. The transport vehicle may have a wheel-free central chassis part arranged between said two lateral chassis parts, and that at least one lateral chassis part is pivotable about a pivot axis in relation to the central chassis part.
