Precautions and differences between tractor truck

The tractor is a special tool cart. It is a special vehicle that uses tools to pull the front car and the rear car together, which means that the front car can be separated from the car. Next, I will share with you the precautions and differences between tractor-trucks.

What problems should the tractor-truck pay attention to when driving?

1. Be sure to check the car carefully before leaving the car. Especially the brakes and clutches, the air pressure of the brakes, the oil in the water tank, and the water in the water tank must be checked, but the tires are also very important.

2. When driving, you must see clearly whether there is a car behind you that is changing lanes when it is about to overtake. Because the semi-trailer is long, it is not easy to change lanes. And try to drive on the roadway as much as possible. If you go to the overtaking lane when overtaking, this can save fuel and save cars.

3. No matter when the CNG tractor truck is going forward or backing up, no matter what situation you encounter, you must not be anxious or flustered, which is not conducive to driving.

4. When reversing, try to choose to reverse from the left side (if conditions permit). The left side is convenient for reversing people to observe. In the process of reversing, first look at the back, and then pay attention to the rearview mirrors on both sides. The lateral distance on the right side is larger than that on the left side. Because the turning radius of the front wheels is larger than that of the rear wheels, the front of the car will swing outward when reversing. If you don't pay attention to this, the right side is easy to scratch. The speed in reversing is dominated by idling speed, and the body should be corrected in time. The reference point of each tractor truck is different, and the timing of steering is different, so I will not generalize here.

What is the difference between a tractor truck full trailer and a semi-trailer?

1. The front of the vehicle with driving ability is called a tractor truck, and the vehicle without driving ability behind is called a trailer. The trailer is towed by the tractor truck. The tractor truck is mainly used to tow the trailer, and it is divided into a full-trailer tractor truck and a semi-trailer tractor truck.

2. There are two ways to connect the tractor truck and the trailer:

The first is that the front half of the trailer rides on the traction saddle above the rear section of the tractor truck, and the bridge behind the tractor truck bears part of the weight of the trailer, which is a semi-trailer. The second is that the front end of the trailer is connected to the rear end of the tractor-truck. The 4x2 tractor truck only provides forward-pulling force to drag the trailer but does not bear the downward weight of the trailer. This is the full trailer.

3. The most popular period of trailers in our country is the 1970s-90s. The full trailer generally adopts inflatable solid tires, with a low deck height and a large loading capacity, without the risk of tire breakage or blowout, safe, simple, and durable. The trailer itself has no power and needs a tractor truck or forklift for towing. Usually, one or more flatbed trucks and a forklift or tractor truck form a train of vehicles for plane transportation of goods or handling of large equipment. Full trailers have been widely used in airports, ports, railway stations, factories, and large warehouses. The use of full trailers has greatly improved the efficiency of cargo transfer and translation and reduced the cost of forklifts and manpower.

4. The semi-trailer car train is a car train composed of a tractor truck and a semi-trailer. The rear axle of the semi-trailer is mostly a single axle, and there are also 2-3 axles, and the front end has a supporting connection device. It can be connected with the rear saddle of the tractor truck, so that part of the total weight of the trailer is carried by the tractor truck, and the traction is transmitted to the semi-trailer. To adapt to loading different materials, the semi-trailer also has two forms: a railing container and a flat cargo platform. The front part has a supporting device that is usually suspended and can be dropped to the ground when it is unhooked so that the trailer can be stably stopped.

The semi-trailer train has a large carrying capacity and good stability when driving. It is used more and more in countries with developed automobile transportation, and it is developing in the direction of heavy-duty and specialization.
