摘要 |
<p>The present invention relates to a device for minimizing the aerodynamic drag that results when tractors, trailers, rigid trucks, lorries, and other vehicles are moving through air. In particular the invention relates to a plate-shaped flow conductor (31) having a front edge, a lower edge, a rear edge and an upper edge. The flow conductor is mountable along the upper edge (34) in a substantially vertical position to a body portion of a pulled vehicle of a vehicle combination of at least two pivotally connected vehicles. When mounted the flow conductor extends at least partially under the body portion in a longitudinal- direction of the1 pulled vehicle. Characteristic for the flow conductor according to the invention is that the flow conductor comprises locally in conjunction with the front edge a thickened portion (78,85), which has a streamlined outer contour (83,84) in a cross section transversally to the front edge.</p> |
