Recently, the Ninth Battalion of the Shanxi High-Speed ​​Traffic Police Team issued an announcement that the traffic police and the road administration department launched a special rectification operation for truck spray. From October 25, 2017 to December 15, 2017, the water supply point of the service area was suspended to add water to large trucks.

In addition, the variable LED display on the expressway prompts the driver to strictly prohibit the use of “water-poured brakes,” and adds “non-poured brakes” and “slippery, slower deceleration” on the long downhill section of the tunnel entrance. information.

At the same time, relying on the Taigu East service area duty station to carry out special campaigns to rectify the "water-poured brakes," provide safety notifications to freight vehicles, and forcefully dismantle unauthorized facilities that add "drencher" privately, and strictly investigate and punish them in accordance with relevant laws and regulations. .

Shower device Heavy truck shower device

As we all know, the phenomenon of water cooling of tires is common in some heavy trucks in China. The release of the Shanxi Traffic Police’s announcement of the ban on the use of showers in some areas in winter triggered a heated discussion among heavy truck drivers. We know that in winter, temperatures drop, and roads in the northern regions are prone to freezing, posing a major risk to safe driving.

One of the important reasons for road icing is the truck's installation of a shower. At the end of winter temperatures, the icing phenomenon is likely to occur due to the water traces that the sprinkler sprinkles on the road, making it difficult for the winter traffic to reduce the grip of the tire and affect the safe driving situation. So, is the Shanxi traffic police's approach reasonable?

Shower device Winter icy road surface

Is the shower device illegal?

According to Article 16 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law" in China, the installation of a shower device belongs to the original structure of an illegally reconstructed vehicle. When the vehicle is shipped or sold, it will not be equipped with a shower device. This act of installing a shower device, in accordance with Article 16 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law" and Article 57 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations," arbitrarily changes the shape of a motor vehicle and the registered technical data. The traffic administrative department of the public security organ ordered it to be reinstated and a fine of 500 yuan was imposed.

Although many trucks currently use water showers, they have already violated the relevant provisions of the Road Traffic Safety Law.

Retarder, terminator of watering device

Since the shower device is a device that is prohibited by the state to install on the truck, how to solve the problem of effective braking of the vehicle? Do not worry, the retarder device can not only solve the brake problem, but also has more auxiliary driving functions. . The retarder is a type of magnetic field generated by energizing the excitation coil of the stator assembly through the control circuit, and the rotor assembly rotates with the vehicle transmission part at a high speed, cuts the magnetic force line, and generates a reverse torque, thereby decelerating the vehicle.

According to the new GB7258 standard consultation draft, heavy-duty tractors are required to be equipped with airbag suspensions, disc brakes, and hydraulic retarder configurations. This information is displayed in the future production of heavy trucks, and the standardized configuration of retarder devices will become a reality. The shower device will be replaced by a retarder to effectively solve the winter road ice problem caused by cooling water.

Retarder technology matures significantly

In the use of the shower device, there are problems such as large workload and general brake assist effect. The good braking capability of the heavy truck is a necessary condition for ensuring the safe driving of the truck. At present, the most technologically mature retarder manufacturers in the market are Fast, Voith, and ZF.

Retarder Fast Retarder

Fast is China's first company to produce hydraulic retarder products. It is really considering for users, saving costs and improving safety. Currently, Fast has developed a full range of retarders that can match all its transmissions. The hydraulic retarders represented by Fast FH400B and FHB320B have successfully broken foreign technical barriers, filled the gaps in domestic technology, and the key core technologies have reached the international advanced level, with the advantages of prolonging the service life of the brakes, and the operational economy. It fully meets the development needs of multiple gears, large tonnages, high horsepower, and high speed, as well as the individual needs of different users. It provides reliable safety protection and efficient deceleration braking for medium and heavy trucks.

Voith is the inventor of the hydraulic retarder. The Voith VR115 CT hydraulic retarder is a parallel type hydraulic retarder specially developed for Chinese heavy trucks. It has high power, high braking torque, and self-respect Light, small power loss. It can also effectively save friction plates, extend the service life by 4 to 6 times, and at the same time extend the service life of the tire by about 1.6 times. In most cases, the water tank can be removed to meet the lighter weight requirements of the vehicle, resulting in higher average speed and more efficient operation.

Retarder Voith Retarder

ZF Intarder hydraulic retarder, mounted on the output, hydraulically driven, no wear. The braking torque is transmitted back to the output shaft of the transmission through the speed-increasing gears, thereby decelerating the vehicle, and can completely bid farewell to the troublesome, laborious and expensive water spraying device. In addition, Intarder is environmentally friendly. With 1 million kilometers of travel, the hydraulic retarder can reduce 25 kilograms of brake dust and reduce air pollution.

For safety, refuse to use the shower in winter

The use of the shower device has both advantages and disadvantages, especially in road environments where the temperature in winter is low, the water dripping from the shower may freeze on the road surface, which may cause serious traffic accidents. In order to consider the safety of driving in winter, it is necessary for the majority of driver friends to strictly abide by the relevant regulations of the traffic management department. In the section that prohibits the use of the water driers, the water driers are not used.

In addition, under the new GB7258 policy that will take effect in January 2018, heavy-duty trucks will be equipped with retarders at the factory to provide good brake-assist driving functions for the safety of heavy-duty trucks. Driving.

It is hoped that more heavy-duty truck driver friends will give priority to vehicle models with retarder devices when purchasing vehicles, because it is not only for their own driving safety and ride comfort, but also to avoid road traffic caused by the use of showers. Security accident.
