The basic structure and function of semi-trailer
Semi-trailer is a tractor-trailer, no power unit of the vehicle, the front of its ride on the back of the tractor, relying on the tractor to provide power traveling. Semi-trailer is mainly composed of chassis, carriage, suspension system, braking system and other parts, which has the characteristics of strong carrying capacity and high transportation efficiency.
The chassis is the skeleton of the semi-trailer, carrying the weight of the entire vehicle; compartment is the space for loading goods, its design and material selection directly affects the safety of the goods and transport efficiency; suspension system is responsible for connecting the compartment and chassis, play a buffer and stabilize the role of the brake system is to ensure that the vehicle is safe to drive the key, and must always maintain its good working condition.
Precautions for the use of semi-trailer
Reasonable loading: The loading of semi-trailer should follow the principle of even distribution of goods and stable center of gravity to avoid partial loading or overloading. Overloading will not only increase the wear and tear and failure rate of the vehicle, but also seriously affect the safety of driving.
Comply with traffic rules: Semi-trailer drivers should strictly abide by traffic rules and road speed limits to avoid speeding, running red lights and other illegal behavior. At the same time, always pay attention to road conditions and weather changes to ensure driving safety.
Regular inspection: Semi-trailers should be regularly inspected in the course of use, including the braking system, tire wear, lighting system, etc., to ensure that the vehicle is always in good working condition.
Correct operation: Drivers should master the operation skills of semi-trailer, including starting, turning, stopping and so on. In the process of traveling, special attention should be paid to the cooperation with the tractor to avoid accidents such as trailer detachment or collision.
Maintenance points of semi-trailer
Tire maintenance: Tires are important parts of semi-trailer, and their condition directly affects the driving safety and transport efficiency of the vehicle. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly check the air pressure and wear of tires, and replace the badly worn tires in time. At the same time, pay attention to the cleaning and maintenance of tires to avoid oil and debris damage to the tires.
Brake system maintenance: the brake system is the key to the safe operation of the semi-trailer. It is necessary to check the wear and tear of the brake pads on a regular basis, and replace the over-worn brake pads in a timely manner. In addition, check whether the brake lines and joints are intact, and ensure that the brake fluid is sufficient and clean.
Suspension system maintenance: The suspension system is responsible for connecting the cabin and chassis, and its working condition directly affects the stability and comfort of the vehicle. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly check whether the connecting parts of the suspension system are loose or damaged, and replace the suspension parts with serious wear and tear in time.
Lubrication and Cleaning: The various parts of the semi-trailer need to be lubricated and cleaned regularly to reduce wear and tear and failure. It is necessary to replace the lubricant and clean the filter regularly according to the requirements of the vehicle manual. At the same time, pay attention to keep the vehicle neat and clean to avoid oil and debris damage to the vehicle.
Failure prevention and emergency treatment of semi-trailer
Failure prevention: Through regular inspection and maintenance, potential safety hazards can be found and solved in time to reduce the probability of failure. In addition, drivers should have good driving habits and safety awareness, and comply with traffic rules to avoid failures caused by improper operation.
Emergency treatment: In the process of driving, if encountering sudden failure or emergency, the driver should remain calm, quickly judge and take the correct response measures. For example, when encountering brake failure, engine braking and deceleration devices should be used to reduce the speed; when encountering a flat tire, hold the steering wheel, slowly slow down and pull over. At the same time, contact the rescue department in time to seek professional help.
