A wall structure of a trailer box (10) is constructed from a plurality of panels (36, 38, 40) which are welded together where their edges meet. The panels (36, 38, 40) are each extrusions and each includes thin side skins (42, 44) and thin webs (46, 48, 50). The edge regions that are connected together include thickened portions that dissipate a substantial amount of the heat provided by the welds (56, 58). A plurality of panels (36, 38, 40) are welded together to form a large wall structure (WS). This wall structure (WS) is then reconfigured by a roll-forming machine (Fig: 8- 10) to provide a box (10) having a longitudinally straight and laterally curved configuration. Laterally considered, the box (10) has a concave inner side and a convex outer side. This shape of the box provides the box with both sidewalls and a bottom. The overall construction of the trailer box is lightweight and quite strong and facilitates construction of the truck/trailer box.
Une structure de paroi pour une caisse de remorque (10) est construite de plusieurs panneaux (36, 38, 40) qui sont soudés ensemble où leurs bords se touchent. Les panneaux (36, 38, 40) sont chacun des extrusions et chacun comprend des enveloppes latérales minces (42, 44) et des bandes minces (46, 48, 50). Les régions des bords qui sont raccordées ensemble comprennent des parties épaissies qui dissipent une quantité importante de chaleur fournie par les soudures (56, 58). Plusieurs panneaux (36, 38, 40) sont soudés ensemble pour former une large structure de paroi (WS). Cette structure de paroi (WS) est ensuite reconfigurée par une machine à profiler les feuillards (Fig : 8-10) afin de fournir une caisse (10) dotée d'une configuration courbée latéralement et longitudinalement droite. Latéralement considérée, la caisse (10) comprend une paroi interne concave et une paroi externe convexe. Cette forme de la caisse lui fournit ses parois latérales et sa partie inférieure. La construction dans son ensemble de la caisse de remorque est légère et assez robuste et facilite la construction de caisse de camion/remorque.
