    摘要: A method of stabilizing a parked semi-trailer, the method comprising: (i) repositioning a tractor, with a lift extending forward of a front of the tractor, the lift operatively coupled to a portable trailer stabilizer while at least a portion of the portable trailer stabilizer is elevated above the ground, forward to position the portable trailer stabilizer proximate a forward end of a semi-trailer that is parked; (ii) repositioning the tractor forward to reposition the portable trailer stabilizer at least partially beneath the forward end of the semi-trailer; (iii) repositioning the lift located at the front of the tractor in order to lower the portion of the portable trailer stabilizer to be in contact with the ground when proximate the forward end of the semi-trailer that is parked; (iv) operatively decoupling the portable trailer stabilizer from the lift after the portable trailer stabilizer is in contact with the ground; and, (v) reversing the tractor, after the lift is operatively decoupled from portable trailer stabilizer, to vacate a position in front of the forward end of the semi-trailer while parked.

    摘要: A portable trailer stabilizer, comprising: (i) a support surface engagement element configured to selectively engage a support surface; (ii) a trailer engagement element configured to selectively engage a forward end portion of a trailer; (iii) a hydraulic cylinder operatively connected between the support surface engagement element and the trailer engagement element, the hydraulic cylinder configured to extend the trailer engagement element relative to the support surface engagement element; (iv) an on-board, self-contained energy source comprising a hydraulic accumulator operatively coupled to the hydraulic cylinder; (v) an isolation valve fluidically interposing the hydraulic cylinder and the hydraulic accumulator; (vi) a positioning element engagement element configured to selectively couple with a trailer stabilizer positioning element of a tractor; and (vii) a valve operator mechanism configured to (a) open the isolation valve when the when the positioning element engagement element is coupled to the trailer stabilizer positioning element of the tractor, and (b) shut the isolation valve when the positioning element engagement element is uncoupled from the trailer stabilizer positioning element of the tractor, where the hydraulic cylinder, the hydraulic accumulator, and the isolation valve are operatively connected in a closed hydraulic system containing a hydraulic fluid.
