ABSTRACT:
A low bed trailer includes a bumper/ramp unit pivotally attached to the back end. The bed is centrally pivoted to a wheel support unit for tilting to a loading position under gravity forces. A mechanical linkage between the bed and bumper/ramp unit provides automatic positioning of the bumper/ramp unit in response to the positioning of the bed between a horizontal transport position and a tilted loading position. In the bumper position, the bumper depends from the trailer bed and in the tilted loading position, the bumper abuts the trailing end of the bed and projects angularly to the ground as an inclined ramp.
