1. Reasonable Control of Load Status
When filling the trailer tank with liquid, the filling amount should be controlled according to the tank's rated capacity and design requirements. Avoid overfilling, which can cause the liquid to slosh violently due to inertia during driving, and also avoid underfilling, which leaves too much space for the liquid to move around. Ensure the liquid is evenly distributed within the tank. If the tank has a multi-compartment structure, balance the liquid volume in each compartment to prevent tilting and shaking caused by excessive load on one side, maintaining overall load balance and stability.
2. Strengthening Tank Fixing and Protection
Inspect and reinforce the connecting parts between the trailer tank and the tractor. Ensure that the kingpin, connecting bolts, and other components are securely fastened and not loose, preventing tank shaking due to excessive connection clearance during driving. If the tank has baffle plates, regularly check their condition to ensure they effectively prevent violent liquid movement and reduce the impact of the liquid on the tank walls. Additionally, consider installing stabilizing brackets or guardrails on the tank as needed to enhance stability during driving and reduce shaking.
3. Standardized Driving Procedures
When towing the trailer tank, maintain a constant speed, avoiding sudden acceleration or braking to prevent the liquid from generating significant inertia due to sudden speed changes, which can cause the tank to shake. Slow down before turning and turn the steering wheel slowly to avoid sharp turns that cause the liquid to accumulate on one side, leading to tilting and shaking of the tank. When overtaking or changing lanes, perform these actions smoothly, giving the tank and liquid sufficient time to adapt, reducing shaking caused by sudden changes in driving direction.
4. Regular Equipment Maintenance
Regularly check the trailer tank's tires to ensure normal tire pressure and even wear, preventing uneven tire stress that can cause the tank to bounce and shake during driving. Inspect the suspension system components, such as springs and shock absorbers, to ensure they are in good condition. Replace any damaged or aged parts promptly to ensure the suspension system effectively cushions road bumps and reduces tank shaking. Also, check the braking system to ensure it is responsive and applies even force, preventing the tank from shaking due to unbalanced forces during braking.
