Abstract: A semi-trailer for transporting a load to be moved has a wheeled front module having a right-hand front row and a left-hand front row of front bogies each provided with a respective hydraulic suspension driven by its own hydraulic cylinder; a wheeled rear module comprising a right-hand rear row and a left-hand rear row of rear bogies each provided with a respective hydraulic suspension driven by its own hydraulic cylinder; a coupling unit of the wheeled front module for the coupling to a tractor and comprising a pair of hydraulic jacks for transferring a part of the load to be moved to the tractor; a first hydraulic unit interposed between the hydraulic cylinders of the front and rear rows of bogies and configured in such a way that the sum of the instantaneous load-supporting pressures acting on the hydraulic cylinders of the right front row and of the cylinders of the left-hand rear row is equal to the sum of the instantaneous pressures controlling the cylinders of the left-hand front row and of the cylinde

Abstract: A transport vehicle is driven by a hydraulic closed circuit system having a variable displacement pump to send an operating fluid to a delivery branch and receive the operating fluid from a return branch, a plurality of hydraulic motors connected to the delivery branch and to the return branch in order to drive relative wheels of the vehicle, a command and control unit to control the pump and the hydraulic motors in an ordinary advancing condition of the vehicle and command and control unit, which is configured to intervene in case of faults or malfunctions of the pump and to control a valve so as to establish a connection between the delivery branch and the return branch regardless of the control of the command and control unit of the pump and of the hydraulic motors.

Abstract: A goods vehicle has a chassis with at least one load deck, a plurality of steerable carriages underneath the load deck and an attachment and support assembly for the load, to be transported, supported by the chassis; the attachment and support assembly being provided with an attachment head for the load to be transported, a multiple-bar kinematic system for coupling the support head to the chassis and an actuator for moving the support head with respect to the chassis with a roto-translational motion; the support head being coupled to the kinematic system by means of a hinge having a movable hinge axis.

Abstract: A freight vehicle has a frame defining a support surface for the goods to be transported, a plurality of rubberized wheel assemblies with suspensions, the height of which can be adjusted to shift the support surface between a lowered loading position and a raised transport position, and a driver's cab arranged beneath said support surface; the cab being coupled to, and overhanging, the frame by means of an articulated quadrilateral transmission unit and being shifted by pneumatic actuators configured to vertically move the whole cab in relation to the support surface between two extreme end positions, one approaching the support surface and one spaced apart from said support surface, and to arrange the cab in a cushioned intermediate position for the transport of the goods.

Abstract: A semi-trailer combination for multiple modules. At least three modules can be drawn apart out of one another, and can be pushed into one another, at least in part. All the modules may be completely pushed against one another. At least two tubular or box-shaped central supports of the second or of the third module may be pushed into corresponding central supports of the first and second modular, entirely or in part.

Abstract: A dual lane, multi-axle transport vehicle for moving heavy loads includes a forward module mounted on a plurality of axles and a rearward module mounted on a plurality of axles. The forward module is mechanically connected to the rearward module for providing a dual lane transport body. The forward module and the rearward module of the transport body each have a single central spine wherein the axles of both the forward module and the rearward module are each attached to the corresponding single central spine. The axles of both the forward module and the rearward module have an axle spacing of at least six feet. A hydraulic suspension is provided for dynamically stabilizing the axles for reducing axle yaw. An axle steering system having a plurality of steering rods controls the position of the axles of both the forward module and the rearward module.
