chassi rebaixado

"Drop Frame container" = "tanque para chassi rebaixado"
Entendo assim - o "container" é um tanque, ou seja, "bulk liquid tank container", conforme o link abaixo.
Example sentence:

This lightweight drop frame tank chassis provides safe, stable transport of bulk liquid tank containers.

Peer comment(s):

agree Mario Freitas : Is this the same as a "low-boy"? Usually "drop" is used when you have an opening hatch underneath or when part of the structure is "detachable" from the bottom.

Thanks, Mario. Have a look in Google images. The chassis is "dropped" before and after the wheels to make it very close to the ground.

carreta rebaixada

Se for em relação à carreta que leva o contêiner, encontrei isso aqui: http://atrhol.com.br/novo/Texto/Texto.aspx?NomePai=Frota

Pois "drop frame container" só encontrei relacionado à carreta, como "drop frame container chassis".
