Body with moveable walls for heavy goods vehicles or trailers has wall with upper pivoted section moved by cable pull under body roof at an upward angle initially

摘要

Each body wall consists of an upper and a lower horizontally pivoted sections. Opening of the lower section pivots the upper section via a cable pull and moves it upper edge in a guide rail. During pivot movement under the body wall, the top edge of the open upper section initially moves upwards at an angle. The lower wall section is pivoted with its lower edge about a horizontal axis. The upper section is guided at the lower end by a guide rod hinged to fixed body parts, and its upper end moves in a horizontal guide under the roof. The outer end of the guide extends upwards at an angle. The guide is a rail, open on one side, with closed cover and flat base. The angled part is between 10% and 50% of its length.
