Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] This invention is based on the invention that the weight of cargo loaded on a truck is
If the vehicle becomes significantly unbalanced in the left-right direction, balance weights made of an appropriate number of rod-shaped bodies such as round steel that are removably fixed to the sides of the top of the loading platform are used to maintain the left-right balance, and the vehicle can be operated. The present invention relates to a load balancing device for a freight vehicle that facilitates transportation and improves the durability of the vehicle.

Freight vehicles must load various types of cargo within the limited space of the loading platform, but it is difficult to load heavy objects with a skewed center of gravity (for example, large machinery, structures made of various steel materials or concrete, etc.). When loading, even if the center of gravity of the entire load is unbalanced with respect to the center of the loading platform, there is no adjustment method in the past, and the driver has to transport it in an unstable state, making it difficult for the driver to operate the steering wheel. Not only is it tiring, but it can also be extremely dangerous and cause serious accidents when driving at high speeds, maneuvering around curves, or stopping suddenly.In addition, the unbalanced weight on the cargo platform causes unbalanced loads around the axles and tires, which can lead to vehicle breakdowns. Moreover, it had the disadvantage of significantly reducing the durability of the vehicle.

The present invention is intended to eliminate these drawbacks, and its configuration will be explained with reference to the embodiment shown in the figure.A weight holder of an appropriate length (less than 1/2 of the horizontal width of the loading platform 1) made of L-shaped steel. The base 2 has a plurality of mounting holes 4, 4, .

The weight holding frame 7 is formed of a steel material into a cross-sectional shape and has approximately the same length as the weight holder 2.
Arc-shaped weight holding grooves 9, 9, . Bolt insertion holes 11, 11 are bored.

Fix the weight holders 2, 2... to the four corners of the top surface 12 of the loading platform 1 of the freight vehicle A, with the side walls 5, 5... of the weight holders 2, 2... facing outward in the front and rear, and insert bolts into the mounting holes 4, 4..., and fix each weight holder. The tables 2, 2... have weight holding frames 7, 7... on the inner wall surfaces of their respective side walls 5, 5...
The outer wall surfaces of the outer wall portions 10, 10... of... are brought into contact with each of the weight holding frames 7, 7 and the weight receivers 2, 2...
The corresponding outer bolt insertion holes and bolt insertion holes 11, 6. 11 and 6. 13 bolts each,
13... and screw nuts 14, 14..., and rotate the weight holding frames 7, 7... outward and upward, respectively, around the bolts 13, 13... so that they face each other in the front and rear directions. The weight receivers 2, 2 and 2 provided with
2 lower wall portions 3, 3 and upper surfaces 15, 15 of 3, 3.
15,15. Both ends of an appropriate number of counterbalancing weights 16, 16... made of round steel or polygonal steel rods (the case of round steel is shown in the figure) are placed on the weight holding frames 7, 7... Close the counterweights 16, 16...
Both ends of ... are held in parallel between the weight holding grooves 9, 9... and the weight holders 2, 2..., and each of the weight holding frames 7, 7... and the weight holders 2, 2... are respectively Corresponding inner bolt insertion hole and bolt insertion hole 1
1,6.11,6. ...Bolt 13, 13...
are inserted and screwed into nuts 14, 14, . . . to fix the counterweights 16, 16, .

Next, to explain the function of the present invention, the loading platform 1
If the weight of the cargo to be loaded on top is biased to the right side in the direction of travel of the vehicle, a front and rear weight receiver is provided with an appropriate number of counterweights 16, 16... on the left side to correspond to the biased weight. It is loaded on the platforms 2, 2 and fixed by the weight holding frames 7, 7..., and the weight of the loaded cargo on the platform 1 is balanced from side to side, so that the weight of the loaded cargo is biased to the left side. In this case, counterweights 16, 16, . . . are fixed to the right side of the loading platform 1 to maintain balance.

To explain the effects of the present invention, which has the structure and function described above, when loading cargo on a loading platform, the center of gravity of the loaded object is placed as close to the horizontal center of the loading platform as possible. Due to the size and shape of the vehicle and the order of loading and unloading, it is often necessary to transport the vehicle in an unbalanced state, making it extremely dangerous to drive a vehicle while the vehicle is in motion and can cause accidents. However, the device of the present invention allows the center of gravity of the loaded cargo to be approximately balanced on the loading platform, making driving easier and helping to prevent accidents. The load is not applied as unreasonable force around the axle or to any part of the vehicle body, reducing vehicle breakdowns and significantly improving durability. In addition, the weight balancing device of the present invention has a simple structure, and Since the counterweight is rod-shaped, it is extremely easy to attach, detach, and move, and has excellent practical effects.
