  • Publication number: 20080003088
    Abstract: An adjustable schnable system in which the ride height of the transport object may be adjusted by the operator is disclosed and claimed. The adjustable schnable is comprised of a plurality of sections including front and rear portions having goosenecks and multiple axles therein. Vertical elevation of the goosenecks is controllable via hydraulic cylinders. Two pivotably adjustable arms are cooperatively engaged to both the front and rear goosenecks. Two v-type frames, having lateral beams, are pivotably mounted between and to each set of adjustable arms. The transport object, inserted between the two v-type frames, is held secure by compression forces. Raising the goosenecks causes the transport object to lift higher with respect to the adjustable schable system, rather than causing movement of the lateral beams of the vee-type frame in relation to the transport object. Control over the adjustable arms allows manipulation of the transport object ride height.
