An aerodynamic fairing assembly for attachment to a trailer of a tractor-trailer. The aerodynamic fairing assembly may comprise a front skirt fairing and a movable skirt fairing that is configures to move forward and rearward along the length of the trailer. The front skirt faring and movable skirt fairing are coupled to the trailer by one or more mounting brackets.

A cargo trailer includes a floor, a roof and a side wall extending vertically upward between the floor and roof. The side wall includes a substantially gas impermneable outer liner panel and a substantially gas impermeable inner liner panel. The inner liner panel includes at least one glass and polymer layer and one gas impermeable barrier layer. The inner liner panel can also be used to form the roof and replace the outer liner panel.

Liner panel having barrier layer

A cargo trailer includes a floor and a side wall extending vertically upward from a side edge of the floor. The side wall includes at least one vertical post. A pair of adjacent liner panels, formed from a tough material attached to a stiff backer, attach to the post.

Trailer with side wall having laminate panel

A cargo trailer includes a floor, a roof and a side wall extending vertically upward between the floor and roof. The side wall includes a substantially gas impermeable outer liner panel and a substantially gas impermeable inner liner panel. The inner liner panel includes at least one glass and polymer layer and one gas impermeable barrier layer. The inner liner panel can also be used to form the roof and replace the outer liner panel.

A cargo trailer includes a floor and a side wall extending vertically upward from a side edge of the floor. The side wall includes a plurality of generally vertical posts. Each post defines an interior surface disposed in a generally common plane and a recessed portion. A scuff band is received within the recessed portions so that at least a portion of the scuff band is outward of the common plane.

Trailer having improved side wall

A collector system for collecting a measurable amount of a particulate substance using an electrostatically charged collector. The collector is brought into proximity with the particulate substance and the electrostatic forces collect a measurable amount of the particulate substance on the collector. The collector system can further include a measurement system to measure the collected amount and a control system to adjust the collected amount until a specific amount of particulate substance is collected. The system can further include a conveyance system configured to convey a specific amount of the particulate substance from location to location within the collector system. In addition, the collector system can be configured to automatically collect and measure a specific amount of a particulate substance.

Systems and methods for collecting a particulate substance

A programmed illuminated display is provided. The display includes a panel having a plurality of apertures extending therethrough. An optical fiber is provided for each aperture. Each optical fiber has an emitting end aligned with the front face of the panel and a receiving end extending beyond the rear face of the panel. The optical fibers are grouped in a selected manner, and each group of the optical fibers is connected to an LED. The LED's are connected to a control circuit that includes a programmable chip. The chip is programmed to generate a selected firing order for the LED's which in turn direct light through the associated optical fibers for providing a programmed illumination for the display.

Programmed fiberoptic illuminated display

Composite floor for an insulated or semi-insulated trailer including a unitary subfloor member and a unitary top floor member with a rigid foam core being located therebetween. The foam core has sufficient strength to transfer a cargo load from the top floor member to the bottom floor member without additional floor sills being located therebetween. The invention is further embodied in an improved method of manufacturing a floor as set forth above.
