PNEUMATIC THREE AXIS MODERN TRAILER
SYNOPSIS
PNEUMATIC THREE AXIS MODERN TRAILER is nothing but one of the
Lifting system in automobile at the time of emergency. In this Lifting system
pneumatically operated one. Here the additional pneumatic cylinder and Control Valve is
provided in the automobile itself.
In this project, the Control Valve is used to activate/deactivate the Air input. The
Valve is ON at the time of emergency; the compressed air goes to the pneumatic
cylinder. Then the compressed air passes through the tube, and then pushes the pneumatic
cylinder, so that the Lifting is applied at the time of Valve in ON position (i.e.Emergency time).
The speed of the pneumatic cylinder is varied by using flow control valve. This is
the way of controlling Lifting speed of the Trailer at the time of emergency. In our
project, we have to apply this Pneumatic Modern Trailer Mechanism in Load Lifting
Vehicles.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
The Control Valve is fixed in near of the driving persons in the four wheeler. The
air tank contains the compressed air already filled. The Valve was ON at the time of
emergency, the Control Valve was activated.
The compressed air flow is controlled by the valve is called FLOW
CONTROL VALVE. This air flow is already set. Then the compressed air goes to the
pneumatic cylinders. The pneumatic cylinders piston moves forward at the time of
compressed air inlet to the cylinder. The pneumatic cylinder moves towards the
Lifting arrangement.

ADVANTAGES
1) Lifting cost will be less.
2) Free from wear adjustment.
3) Less power consumption
4) Less skill technicians is sufficient to operate.
5) Installation is simplified very much.
DISADVANTAGES
1. Need separate air tank
2. Efficiency is Low.
3. Addition cost is required to install this system to four wheeler.
APPLICATION
Four wheeler application
It is also implemented in Crane Application.
