Tipping bodies

A t*ipper trailer* consists of a tipping bridge and a tractor unit. The tipping bridge is a special kind of truck body. These vehicles are called tipper vehicles. Due to its special construction tippers are predestinated for the transport of bulk materials like sand or gravel.

The tipper bridge has mechanism with which the loading area can be tilted. The cargo area is connected to the chassis of the carrier vehicle. When the mechanism is activated, the goods can slip down.

The tipper vehicle consist of a tractor unit which serves for the motor propulsion, because the trailer does not have a front axle it only lays upon the kingpin of the coupling of the tractor unit.

Tipper trailers are distinguished in rear dump trucks, two-way tippers, three-way tippers. The rear dump truck is only bale to open its tailgate for unloading, while the two-way tipper can open the left and right sidewall, but this construction type is nowadays unusual.
The three-way tipper combines the advantages of the two other, because it is able to open the three tailboards, only the one towards the driver’s cabin cannot be opened.
