Abstract: Heavy equipment trailer comprising an elongated deck, a front gooseneck extending from the front of the deck for connection to a pulling vehicle, a rear gooseneck extending from the rear of the deck, a jeep with ground engaging wheels positioned to the rear of the deck, and an elevator operatively connected between the rear gooseneck and the jeep for raising and lowering the rear gooseneck to adjust the height of the deck above the ground. The trailer also has a front jeep and a rear booster with dual axles and multiple wheels, with the loads at the front and rear of the deck being distributed respectively between the front jeep and the pulling vehicle and between the rear jeep and the booster. A front jeep includes a lift for raising and lowering the front gooseneck and the front end of the deck.

Abstract: Trailer with a detachable gooseneck having a deck supported toward the rear by ground engaging wheels, mating surfaces on the gooseneck and the deck which abut against each other when the gooseneck is attached to the deck, coupling pins extending along spaced apart, parallel axes from the gooseneck and the deck on opposite sides of the abutting surfaces, a coupling link movable along the pin on the gooseneck between a first position in which the link engages the pin on the deck and a second position in which the link is disengaged from the pin on the deck, and an actuator for moving the coupling link between the first and second positions. A latch hook is rotatively mounted on the deck to the rear of the abutting surfaces for engagement with a laterally extending latch bar which depends from the gooseneck, and a pneumatic actuator is operatively connected to the latch hook for moving the latch hook into and out of engagement with the latch bar.

Abstract: Heavy equipment trailer and deck extension. The trailer has an elongated main deck with longitudinally extending frame members on opposite sides thereof, and ground engaging wheels toward the rear of the main deck. The extension has longitudinally extending frame members aligned with the frame members of the main deck, and coupling pins extend between the frame members of the main deck and the extension in load supporting relationship, with lock pins preventing longitudinal separation of the main deck and the extension. C-shaped channel members extend along the upper, lower, and outer sides of the extension, past the coupling pins, and along upper, lower, and outer side portions of the frame members of the main deck to hold the frame members in alignment and prevent sagging under load conditions.

Abstract: Gooseneck trailer having a horizontally extending deck with a plurality of longitudinally extending frame members including outer side rails which extend along opposite sides of the deck, lower gooseneck beams rigidly connected the outer deck rails by couplings that can be selectively engaged and disengaged, elongated upper gooseneck beams pivotally connected to the lower beams, with one end of each of the upper beams being pivotally connected to a pulling vehicle, operating cylinders connected between the upper and lower beams for raising and lowering the lower beams and the trailer deck when the upper beams are connected to the pulling vehicle, and latches for locking the upper and lower beams in different positions relative to each other.
