Concept<br />
The Kappa Trailer is a lightweight, high-speed, personal utility trailer<br />
that can safely and easily be towed with any vehicle on the road<br />
today.<br />
With the modern trend of consumers toward smaller, more fuelefficient<br />
vehicles, the need has been created for an alternative solution<br />
for transporting loads safely and economically without risking<br />
overloading these smaller vehicles. For example: a family can safely<br />
travel to their destination in their compact vehicle, at normal highway<br />
speeds, without compromising safety or comfort, by towing all their<br />
luggage behind their vehicle.<br />
Design<br />
The trailers feature a 16-gauge, cold-rolled steel, 2-box design consisting<br />
of a “Main box” compartment at the rear and a “Nose-cone”<br />
compartment directly ahead of the main box. The chassis is fabricated<br />
channel made from 11-gauge cold-rolled steel. The axle assembly<br />
is a torsion-axle with 5-lug hubs on a 4 ½” PCD. The recessed tail<br />
lights and flat rear end design facilitate vertical storage to minimize<br />
footprint and save space. Available accessories include but are not<br />
limited to: a spare wheel mounted under the nose-cone, a fold-away<br />
jockey wheel, a fabricated steel rear wing-spoiler, an all-purpose<br />
carrier that mounts on the main box lid, a cooler-box conversion with<br />
drain plug for the nose-cone, custom color schemes and models with<br />
a tailgate design are also planned for the future.<br />
Main Box<br />
The main box is a waterproof, rectangular-shape, the dimensions are<br />
6’–0” long x 3’–0” wide and 1’–6” deep, with a 4” deep lid that is<br />
hinged on the driver’s side and opens on the passenger (curb) side.<br />
Lifting the lid is controlled/assisted by gas struts located at the hinge<br />
side. 6 eyelets are located on the floor of the main box for securing<br />
loads and preventing loads from shifting around during transport. The<br />
top opening features a prominent lip that prevents water from entering<br />
the compartment area.<br />
Nose Cone<br />
The nose-cone has a rhomboid shape with a sloping top side that is<br />
angled down 5 degrees from the long (rear) side toward the short<br />
(front) parallel side. The long parallel side measures 3’–0” and the<br />
short side measures 2’–0” and they are 2’-0” apart. The nose-cone is<br />
deepest (1’–3¾” deep) at the 3’-0” side with a lid that is hinged at the<br />
3’-0” side and tilts upward to open. The top opening features a prominent<br />
lip that prevents water from entering the compartment area.<br />
Chassis<br />
The chassis is fabricated from 11-gauge cold-rolled steel that is<br />
formed into a channel measuring 2”(web) x 1 ½”(legs) and fully welded<br />
at all connections. The channel sections are turned in a “toe-in”<br />
configuration and a TS 2x2x11Ga square tube is welded to the front<br />
for towing. A spare wheel mounting bracket under the front of the<br />
Nose Cone. A jockey wheel is mounted at the front of the chassis.<br />
The chassis is finished in a Black powder coat paint.<br />
Miscellaneous<br />
White is the standard color for all trailers with available paint options<br />
in Black, Red, Yellow, Bright Silver and Graphite Silver. White steel<br />
wheels are standard with similar paint color options as above.<br />
