With the continuous development of the logistics and transportation industry, the requirements of enterprises on cargo transportation are becoming more and more stringent, which to some extent has also led to the emergence of new models, including flying wing vehicles.

Flying wing vehicles, also known as spread wing vehicles, double wing vehicles and double wing vehicles, are fully called "open van transporters". They are improvements made on the basis of ordinary van vehicles, commonly known as "aircraft boxes" in the industry.

Early flying wing vehicles were generally modified in the later stage, but now more and more vehicles conform to the announcement, such as light trucks, micro trucks, center axles, semi trailers and so on. Some models can also be made into a single wing structure according to the needs of users.

Operating principle of flying wing vehicle:

The flying wing car of medium and heavy trucks generally adopts hydraulic lifting, while the light truck and micro truck adopt manual lifting.

The lift height of the flying wing car can exceed the carriage by nearly 90 °, and the double rear doors can also be opened by 270 ° to fully open the carriage.

It is worth noting that most hydraulic lifting flying wings do not need to start the engine, but only need to use the on-board battery as the power to control the opening angle of the door panels on both sides through the control button of the electric control box.

Advantages of flying wing vehicle:

1. High handling efficiency.

The cargo compartment of the flying wing car can be unfolded at a large angle, which is suitable for rapid mechanical loading and unloading. It is fast, efficient, time-saving and manpower saving. If it can be applied on a large scale, it can help logistics enterprises save a lot of cargo turnover time and improve work efficiency.

If used together with forklift and pallet, it can also speed up the circulation of goods, which is very suitable for the mode of road rail combined transport.

2. Good sealing performance.

The flying wing vehicle is essentially a van type vehicle with good sealing performance. It can reduce or avoid the wind, sun and rain that the goods are exposed to during transportation. It also has anti-theft function and good safety performance.

3. Suitable for loading and unloading large cargo.

Compared with the ordinary van, the cargo box of the flying wing car is opened to a higher degree, and the loading and unloading of some large cargo is more convenient.

Disadvantages of flying wing vehicle:

1. High cost.

Compared with the ordinary cargo box, the flying wing cargo box has added hydraulic lifting system and reinforcement components, so the cost is more expensive × 6 Take the freight car as an example. Flying wings generally cost about 10000 to 20000 yuan.

2. Higher deadweight.

The side panel of the flying wing car needs to be lifted. In order to ensure that the cargo box does not deform during lifting, more materials need to be used to reinforce the cargo box, so its weight is higher than that of the ordinary car.

3. The site requirements are high.

The flying wing car also has certain requirements for the loading and unloading site, which should be wide and flat enough to allow the flying wing to open normally.

Applicable scenarios of flying wing vehicles:

Generally speaking, flying wing vehicles are mainly used to transport paper, household appliances, clothing, chemicals, beverages, food, auto parts and other items, or other large, high-grade and valuable items. In general, flying wing vehicles can be considered for industries with high requirements on transportation and handling efficiency.

Development prospect of flying wing vehicle:

Objectively speaking, the flying wing vehicle has a fast loading and unloading speed and high efficiency. It is a transport vehicle that can meet the needs of modern logistics development, and has a broad market prospect. In addition, in recent years, the trend of vehicle lightweight has risen, and more light materials are used for flying wing vehicles, which has improved the phenomenon of high deadweight to some extent. It is expected that flying wing vehicles will become one of the favorite models in the future logistics industry.
