A foldable transportation trailer able to be folded in two
separate locations to enable the folded trailer to assume a
vertical position behind the vehicle towing it, when not in use,
thus providing a substantially minimal footprint to the trailer
in its compacted state. In this manner, when compacted and
folded, the trailer reduces from an elongated length of
approximately 20 feet, to a length of 3 feet when compacted.
Une remorque de transport pliable est capable d'être pliée à deux endroits séparés pour permettre à la remorque pliée de prendre une position verticale derrière le véhicule la traînant lorsqu'elle n'est pas en utilisation, ce qui donne à la remorque une empreinte très minimale dans son état compact. De cette manière, lorsqu'elle est compacte et pliée, la remorque passe d'une longueur allongée d'environ 20 pi (~609 cm) à une longueur de 3 pi (~91 cm) en forme compacte.
