Abstract

See full text

The invention provides an improved chassis for hauling shipping containers over the road. The chassis includes a gooseneck portion having a support surface for engaging the tunnel section of a container. The support surface is manually adjustable and can be raised or lowered to change the effective height of the gooseneck portion so that the chassis is useable with containers having different tunnel depths. In particular, the gooseneck includes a pair of conversion rails that are pivotable to present alternative tunnel support surfaces. Stop members are also provided to secure the conversion rails in desired positions.
