Cargo carrying deck for the tractor of a semitrailer truck

摘要

Cargo carry apparatus (220) for a tractor (500) of a semitrailer truck includes a rotatable deck (222) mounted between the fifth wheel (502) and the cab which pivots from a vertical position to a horizontal position until the deck rests upon the fifth wheel (502). Deck (222) includes a primary deck (224) and a longitudinally extendable secondary deck (226) which is slidably connected to primary deck (224 ) and may be pulled out to form an enlarged deck area. A leveler (231) is connected to secondary deck (226) to provide a coplanar surface with primary deck (224) so that a 20 foot cargo container (600) or other large load may be levelly loaded on tractor (500).
