INSIDE LOADER, EMBODIED AS A SEMI-TRAILER FOR ATRACTOR TRUCK, FOR OVER-THE-ROAD TRANSPORT OF TRANSPORT FRAMESIN PARTICULAR FOR TRANSPORTING FLAT GLASSABSTRACTIn an inside loader, embodied as a semi-trailer for atractor truck for over-the-road transport of transport frames,and in particular for transporting flat glass in a carrying framehaving parallel longitudinal members, on the outside of whichaxle rockers, supported on air suspension bellows, are arti-culated in order to support a plurality of rear wheels, and onthe inside of each of which a profiled supporting section issecured, wherein, in order to load a transport frame, the semi-trailer is backed up, with its air springs deflated and withits longitudinal members enclosing the transport frame, in sucha way that the profiled supporting sections of the longitudin-al members of the frame coincide vertically with longitudinalmembers of the transport frame, which, at the end of the reversemovement, is raised into the transport position through inflationthe air spring bellows, the present invention makes provisionsfor disposing the trailer coupling on a rocker supported by anair spring as well as for the axle rockers of the rear wheelshaving a stop for emergency operation of the trailer in case ofdeflated air springs during road transport, which can be dis-egaged for the purpose of loading and unloading, wherein thesection heights of the support sections and the longitudinalframe sections of a transport frame are overlapping in such away that the semi-trailer, with emergency locks disengaged andaxle springs deflated, as well as with deflated air spring ofthe trailer coupling rocker, can be moved with sufficientground clearance, wherein the transport sections are verticallyoverlapping the sections of the longitudinal frame members ofthe transport frame, which rests with its frame directly on thebase while still providing clearance.-2-
