Abstract

See full text

A preferred embodiment of a folding trailer with kneeling device is disclosed. The trailer includes a kneeling mechanism that is moveable between a traveling position and a kneeling position. The kneeling mechanism includes a pair of control arms that are cantilevered from the ends of a tubular control shaft. The control shaft is hingeably connected to a frame of the trailer. At least one hydraulically actuated cylinder is used to control the positioning of the kneeling mechanism with respect to the frame of the trailer. Placing the kneeling mechanism place in the kneeling position causes the trailer edge of the trailer to be positioned proximate to the ground to facilitate loading and unloading of the trailer.
