Abstract

Una estructura aerodinámica de montaje trasero para asegurar una carrocería de carga incluye una estructura de tres o cuatro lados que tiene una posición desplegada para ayudar a mejorar la eficiencia aerodinámica de la carrocería de carga. La carrocería de carga puede ser la carrocería de un remolque de un vehículo tractor-remolque o un remolque remolcado detrás de un vehículo tal como un camión. Puede consistir de una carrocería de remolque o una carrocería de carga bien conocidas en la técnica. Un alerón "deflector" montado en una superficie superior de la parte trasera de la carrocería de carga, como estructura aerodinámica adicional o como un alerón independiente para las carrocerías de carga. La estructura aerodinámica de montaje trasero de tres o cuatro lados puede presentar cualquiera de una variedad de modalidades ilustrativas que se muestran y describen aquí.
