Trailer purpose

A trailer can be most fully described as a non-self-propelled vehicle that allows the transportation of various or strictly defined loads due to the power of the tractor, with which it is connected by a special coupling device. Such a combined vehicle is called a road train. It is important to note that the tractor is able to work with several trailers at once.

A special feature of operating a truck together with a trailer is the more complex control of such a vehicle. Therefore, in order to work on a road train, a driver needs to undergo additional training and obtain a permit (the corresponding category in the certificate).

Trailer GKB-8350 for KAMAZ

Such a trailer belongs to the category of non-self-propelled transport, used as an additional means of increasing the possible volume of transported cargo. To connect it to the tractor, special coupling units are used. This allows you to create a road train, which can simultaneously consist of several similar trailers. But when using them, more difficult traffic conditions must be taken into account, because the length of such a road train is longer than that of a conventional truck, but the power remains the same. Because of this, in order to use a trailer, the driver must undergo additional training, as a result of which he will open the appropriate category on his driver’s license.

Due to the increase in the total weight of freight transport, the braking distance, which is an important safety parameter, also increases.

Trailers are divided into two separate categories based on the purpose of the vehicle:

The former include onboard, awning, and others used for transporting different types of cargo, while the latter are used only for one type of cargo transportation. GKB 8350 is a two-axle flatbed trailer that allows transportation of up to 8 tons. The model belongs to the general purpose category. The main tractor with which this towbar is used is KAMAZ 5320. The positive qualities of the unit are:

1. The ability to create a transport and loading complex, for example, when installing a manipulator on a tractor. In this case, it is possible to immediately load a certain cargo onto a cargo trailer without the use of third-party devices.
2. Reducing the load on each axle of the road train. As a result, this allows the use of such vehicles on roads where weight restrictions are established.
3. Reducing fuel and time costs for transporting cargo by approximately 40%.
4. Possibility of increasing the amount of transported cargo, sometimes several times.

But there are also disadvantages to using a trailer. Thus, the speed of a truck as part of a road train is reduced by approximately 30%. This is due to the increase in weight while maintaining engine power. The trailed unit requires regular maintenance to keep it in good condition, which increases operating costs. The maintenance frequency of the GKB-8350 is similar to that of the KAMAZ-5320 truck.

Advantages of using a trailer

The main advantages when using a trailer should be considered:

• increase in the amount of transported cargo, sometimes almost 2 times;
• reducing the weight per axle of a road train with an equal load with a conventional truck, which allows driving on roads with weight restrictions;
• the possibility of creating a specialized vehicle, for example, a tractor equipped with a manipulator will be able to load and transport products not only on its own platform, but also on a trailer;
• reduction of material costs for transportation, including fuel, by up to 40%.

The main disadvantage of using a trailer is considered to be a reduction in the speed of a road train compared to a truck by an average of 30%.

Retrofitting a tractor (in the absence of serial standard devices) for working with a trailer should be considered a certain inconvenience. Such material costs are one-time in nature and quickly pay for themselves with the constant operation of the road train.

Trailer classification

Trailers for practical use are divided into two large categories: general purpose and specialized. General transport includes flatbed, tilt and others, which allow the transportation of cargo of various types. Specialized ones include panel carriers, vans, cement tankers, pipe carriers, tanks, disbanding trucks, car carriers, etc.

An important characteristic of a trailer is its load capacity. According to the international classification system, cargo trailers are divided into the following categories:

In addition, the division by the number of axes is distinguished.

The GKB 8350 trailer is a two-axle flatbed vehicle with a metal platform, with a load capacity of up to 8.0 tons, designed for transporting goods for various purposes. The main tractor for the GKB 8350 trailer is KamAZ 5320.

The factory name means that the trailer was developed by the Head Design Bureau for trailers, model No. 8350. A photo of the GKB 8350 trailer is presented below.

Technical characteristics of the trailer GKB 8551

In order to significantly increase the volume of cargo that a vehicle can transport, motorists everywhere use a variety of trailer models. The GKB 8551 dump trailer seems to be an effective and reliable device for transporting various types of cargo, even on roads that are in poor condition.

Trailer modification

Thanks to the technical characteristics of the GKB 8350 trailer, as well as its good design, versatility, reliability, ease of operation and low costs for technical work, its widespread distribution and use has been achieved. Therefore, to develop the next, more lifting model, it was taken as a basis. In addition, the significant unification achieved by both trailers simplified production, technical maintenance and possible repairs.

In terms of technical characteristics, the main difference between the GKB 8352 and 8350 trailers was the increased load capacity from 8.0 to 10 tons. Such an increase, with the design practically preserved, was achieved by increasing the rigidity of both spring suspensions of the new trailer and making the rotating bogie from reinforced metal. As a result of the modernization, the total weight of the GKB 8352 increased to 13.7 tons.

A relative disadvantage of this improvement was the increase in loading height to 1.37 m (+ 5 mm).

Trailer model GKB-8352

Due to its versatility, reliability and high performance characteristics, the GKB-8350 trailer was widely used in its time. Considering its advantages, it was decided to use it as a basis for the development of new models. As a result, the designers created the GKB trailer 8352. The main difference was the maximum load capacity of the unit of 10 tons. This was made possible by maintaining the same design, but increasing the rigidity of the spring suspension, as well as the use of more durable materials. After modernization of the GKB-8352 model, the maximum transported weight increased to 13.7 tons.

In order to increase the volume of cargo transported by one vehicle, the GKB-8350, which belongs to the category of general purpose trailers, is used. Over time, new modernized versions of GKB-8352 units were released, having higher consumer properties.

Maintenance

Like any vehicle, for reliable and long-term operation, the trailer must undergo technical work (MOT) for proper maintenance. The main operations during maintenance are:

• Second regulation (TO-2). In addition to all the listed TO-1 operations, the alignment of the wheel axles, as well as the frame and drawbar, is diagnosed. If necessary, adjustment operations are performed. The condition of the metal platform is also checked.

The maintenance frequency of the trailer coincides with the base KamAZ 5320 tractor and is: TO-1 - 4 thousand km, TO-2 - 12 thousand km. This design solution reduces the downtime of the road train and increases the operational period.

Features of operating a vehicle with a trailer

When working together with a vehicle and a trailer, it should be taken into account that the road train has an increased total weight, and therefore the braking distance increases. This is important to consider when choosing a safe distance and when stopping, and the effectiveness of the braking system is the most important component of the safe operation of a road train.

Among other features, it is important to highlight the decrease in dynamics. The road train picks up speed noticeably slower, which must be taken into account when overtaking or changing lanes. When driving in turns, it is necessary to avoid jerking when accelerating or braking, as such actions can cause the trailer and the entire road train to skid.

Reversing maneuvers on a vehicle with a trailer are more complex and require certain skills and qualifications. But in any case, if there is an opportunity for control and assistance in performing such actions, it is better to involve an assistant monitoring the situation behind the road train.

Rating GKB 8350

The general purpose trailer GKB 8350 was produced at the Stavropol trailer plant since 1974, and the modification GKB 8352 entered the production line in 1980. Thanks to the successful design, reliability and large number of copies produced, there is currently a significant number of trailers on the secondary market. You can purchase a copy from the mid-80s in good working condition for approximately 150 thousand rubles.

Considering that the design of the GKB 8350 trailer uses a considerable number of parts from the KamAZ vehicle, if necessary, it will not be difficult to repair such a trailer, and the efficiency of using the road train, together with the low costs of maintaining the trailer itself and its versatility, will quickly recoup the purchase costs.

Currently, the Stavropol plant has been transformed into and continues to produce a variety of semi-trailers and trailers with a carrying capacity from 6 to 13 tons. A further development of the GKB 8350 was the SZAP 8355 universal flatbed trailer, which in its parameters and technical characteristics is very similar to its predecessor.

The weight of KAMAZ ranges from 6180 to 27,130 kg. This indicator is influenced by the make of the car and its equipment. The automobile heavyweight received its name from the name of the plant where it was produced both in Soviet and Russian times, from 1976 to 2001. The first production batch rolled off the assembly line of the Kama Automobile Plant on February 16, 1976. Before this, since 1974, only prototypes under the KAMAZ-5320 brand were assembled at the plant. Based on it, the following were developed: the KamAZ-5410 truck tractor, the KamAZ-5511 dump truck, the KamAZ-53212 flatbed truck with an extended base, the KamAZ-53213 chassis, and a whole family of two-axle analogues: the KamAZ-5325 and the basic KamAZ-4325, the KamAZ-43255 dump truck , truck tractor KamAZ-4410. The first two models were born in 1977, the rest a little later. Each modification has its own characteristics, but in general the power units are similar to each other.

The weight of KAMAZ ranges from 6180 to 27,130 kg.

A refrigerated cargo truck is a vehicle for transporting goods that require the creation of a special temperature regime to preserve product characteristics. Such cargo includes: food, perfumes, cut flowers, medicines. The components of a refrigerated truck are a thermally insulated body, a refrigeration (refrigeration and heating) unit, and a chassis. All structural elements must match each other and the required temperature range. The refrigeration unit creates certain climatic conditions and then maintains them at a given level. Thanks to the casing with multi-layer walls, a constant temperature is maintained for a long time when the unit is turned off.

Depending on the nature of the goods, the cargo compartment is equipped with:

— two-tier system for product placement;

— pallet boxes;

— guides on which hooks with meat carcasses are hung;

- flower carts.

Vehicles adapted for transporting carcasses - carcass trucks - have a reinforced frame and round or rail guides.

Refrigerated trucks are manufactured in two versions:

— on the chassis of a flatbed semi-trailer;

- on its own chassis with a load-bearing floor panel, this option is characterized by reduced weight combined with high load capacity.

Refrigerated vans are manufactured individually for a specific chassis type.

In the early 1980s, the USSR government decided to build a plant in Tiraspol (Moldova) to produce heavy-duty refrigerators. It was built and launched as planned. Of course, the country needed such refrigerators. But even to a greater extent, small and very small vehicles are needed, especially for transporting perishable products in populated areas.

Thus was born the goal: to turn the Odessa Automobile Assembly Plant into a manufacturer of that part of the range of refrigerators that was not included in the range of the Tiraspol plant.

In 1989, at the Odessa Automobile Assembly Plant in the GSKB for trailers and refrigerators, created at the plant in 1976, the first refrigerators OdAZ-47093 on the ZIL-4331 chassis and OdAZ-37793 on the GAZ-3307 chassis with aluminum sheet lining were developed and built , equipped with refrigeration and heating units (USA) and Carrier (France). In 1990, their mass production began. And not using traditional technology (pouring foam plastic between the walls of the body), but using sandwich technology, which is still being mastered abroad (assembly of ready-made panels consisting of aluminum sheathing, the space between the walls of which is filled with polyurethane foam, and special aluminum connecting profiles).

And things went well. The niche not occupied by the Tiraspol and Krasnoyarsk plants began to be energetically filled with OdAZ products: the consumer unconditionally accepted these products. Fellow automakers also accepted.

Less than five years have passed since the release of the first refrigerated trucks, and OdAZ managed to increase the number of modifications to almost four dozen. The plant installed its isothermal and refrigerated bodies on almost all chassis models produced by the former republics of the USSR. These are refrigerators on the KamAZ-53212 and KamAZ-5325 chassis, both in single versions and as part of road trains, on ZIL and GAZ trucks. Later, small-tonnage refrigerators were added to them - on the chassis of the same GAZ-33021 (GAZelle), UAZ-3303 and ZAZ-1306. We also began producing small-sized refrigerated trailers for passenger cars.

However, the market is the market. And in 2001 trouble came. The Economic Court of the Odessa Region unlawfully initiated bankruptcy proceedings against OdAZ CJSC and then, during the reorganization procedure, transferred free of charge to the investor - with an authorized capital of 14 thousand hryvnia - an entire property complex worth 55 million hryvnia. A scheme in which a settlement agreement was concluded with an investor as part of a bankruptcy case with the transfer of all property to him was then a standard raider scheme. By the way, they came under her skating rink at almost the same time.”

What types of KAMAZ trucks are there?

The model range includes about one hundred cars. Cars are classified as follows:

This is interesting!

Each vehicle has a special index, thanks to which you can determine the vehicle’s carrying capacity and scope of application. The first number indicates the total weight. The number 6 indicates that the carrying capacity of KAMAZ is from 20 to 40 tons. Index 5 classifies the vehicle as a dump truck. Onboard KAMAZ trucks are numbered 3 (there are about 20 models). The third and fourth digits indicate the model serial number, the fifth is the modification number.

This index value applies not only to KAMAZ vehicles, but also to ZIL, GAZ and MAZ, except for models produced before 1966. In the digital abbreviation, after the first two digits there are designations of the serial model number, and the modification number is added after a dash.

All KAMAZ models have become widespread due to their high-quality performance characteristics: endurance, performance and load capacity, which depends on the model of the truck.

Load capacity and weight of KAMAZ onboard vehicles

The linear range of KAMAZ on-board models includes about twenty technical units. Some cars have been discontinued, others are successfully working on construction sites and transporting goods.

Depending on the configuration and “physical” capabilities of the equipment, it is used in difficult conditions for the needs of the army. KAMAZ trucks have proven themselves well in the conditions of the Far North, at extremely low air temperatures.

Load capacity and weight of KAMAZ dump trucks

KAMAZ dump trucks are the largest group of trucks, numbering about forty models and modifications. This series includes both dump trucks in the usual sense of the term and cars with opening sides.

In addition to differences in technical characteristics, cars differ in the degree of comfort.

Load capacity and weight of KAMAZ truck tractors

A separate category of KAMAZ vehicles are truck tractors. These are massive road trains that have a towbar and, due to increased overall dimensions, are capable of transporting heavier loads. The coupling device can be different: tent, side, isothermal. It is attached to the head unit using a king pin and saddle. The specifications always indicate the weight and load capacity of the tow hitch.

Such “strong men” are capable of pulling loads weighing up to 100 tons! They are produced both for military orders (for the rocket and space forces) and for other needs (quarries, mines, development of diamond deposits).
