Abstract
The invention relates to the method of mechanically rotating the four-axle trailer by acting in combination with the rotating table and the tie rod.
Description
Ensuring the mechanical rotation of the four-axle trailer by acting in combination with the rotating table and the tie rod.
The technical field in which the invention is included;
The invention relates to the method of mechanically rotating the four-axle trailer by acting in combination with the rotating table and the tie rod.
State of the art;
The 3-axle trailers used in the world are fixed axles, and depending on the turning movement of the tractor, the tires are friction in the right and left turns. Friction losses occur.
With our invention, these friction losses are eliminated.
There is no similar method with our invention.
The purpose of the invention;
Since the 8 wheels rotate in the opposite direction during the right and left rotation of the tractor, the trailer's body is moved to the opposite side of the rotation direction, increasing the maneuverability of the tractor. In addition, fuel economy and maneuverability of the vehicle increase. With the addition of the fourth axle, the same trailer can carry 15% more load. While there are tire friction losses in three axle trailers, there is no tire friction loss in our four axle trailer.
Figures to help explain the invention;
Figure 1- Mechanical rotation view of the four-axle semi-trailer by acting in combination with the turntable and the tie rod.
Figure 2- Mechanical rotation of the four-axle trailer combined with the turntable and the tie rod, detail visual four axles and four chassis visuals
Figure 3- Position diagram of the trailer axles according to the rotation direction of the detail visual attractor of the mechanical rotation of the four-axle trailer combined with the rotary table and the rod.
Part names in the figure;
1- Main chassis
2- Rotating tables
3- Sub-chasis
4- Tie rods
5- Balls that take the counter force load to balance the rotating table load
6- Rib chassis placed between the chassis that will meet the bearing strength of the two main chassis whose height has been reduced
7 - the distance between the axle axis and the rotating table
8- rod
9- A shaft controlled from the driver's cabin, which locks the whole system and connects and fixes 8 wheels and 4 axles if needed.
10- rear axle tie rod axis
11- front axle tie rod axis
In order to prevent the ground-tire friction losses that occur during the turns of the tractor due to the immobility of the 3 fixed axles in the 3-axle trailers;
By increasing the trailer to 4 axles, all 4 axles (8 wheels) are mobilized and tire losses are eliminated, and by adding the 4th Axle to the trailer, up to 15% more load is carried and maneuverability is increased due to the tires turning in the opposite direction during turns and fuel savings are provided accordingly.
Implementation of the system;
The chassis height of the trailer (1) is reduced,
The strength loss arising from this reduced height is completed by rib chassis (6) of the same height to be positioned between the two chassis, Separate sub chasis(3) are created for each axle,
The axles are connected to the sub chasis (3) separately by means of bellows, as they were connected to the main chassis in the previous classical method,
Four separate chassis consisting of four axles are connected to the main chassis (1) by placing rotating tables (2) on them,
The main chasis (1) and the sub chasis connection are placed in front of the axle axis (7) of the center of the rotating table,
The excess load that will fall behind the center of gravity of the rotating table (2) is balanced with balls (5) that take the counter force load, which ensures the balance of the rotating table load,
According to the rotation direction of the tractor, four axles (8 wheels) rotate in the opposite direction as needed,
In order for the system to be stable, two axle groups are formed by connecting the rear two axles separately and the front two axles separately by means of tie rods and tie rod (8)(4).
In case the axles need to be fixed, the entire system is fixed by canceling the shaft (9) (controlled from the driver's cabin) placed between the front of the front sub chasis (3) of the rear axle group and the rear sub chasis (3) of the front axle group. It can be integrated into reverse gear for operation.
According to the rotation of the tractor, there is a difference in turning angle between the rear-most axle (10) and the front-most axle (11),
The turns increase as the most forward angle from the rear-most axle (10), This is achieved by placing the tie rods (4) correctly in the correct places.
This arrangement is provided by the rearmost axle rod axis (10) and the front-most axle rod axis (11),
The rods are positioned on the line between the axes (10-11).
Application to industry;
It can be used in rock trucks, military vehicles, tow trucks and agricultural implements (trailers) apart from the trailer.
Both of our designs are new and developed by us to comply with the international size limit
Since the 8 wheels rotate in the opposite direction during the right and left rotation of the tractor, the trailer's body is moved to the opposite side of the rotation direction, increasing the maneuverability of the tractor. In addition, fuel economy and maneuverability of the vehicle increase.
With the addition of the fourth axle, the same trailer can carry 15% more load. While there are tire friction losses in three axle trailers, there is no tire friction loss in our four axle trailer.
It is preferred with its advantages and innovations.
