Vehicle chassis component straightening frame - has side bracing girders mounted movably on wheels to tension parts true

摘要

This pallet type wheeled frame provides for multi-tensioning of distorted vehicle parts for correction by positional overloading. An end ramp and continued wheel carrying plates are arranged the length of the frame across a braced system of girders to locate the vehicle. Tensioning chains and beams are then attached to the chassis and loading applied. Upright extensions can be brought into use for lateral and/or longitudinal correction. the main advantages are versatility of application coupled with relatively cheap and lightly manufactured construction which allows a greater force to be applied than hitherto possible.
