Abstract:
A trailer hitch guide adapted to enable a vehicle operator to hitch a trailer to a vehicle without assistance and without leaving the confines of his cab. The guide assembly includes a mounting plate and a pivot plate adapted for attachment to a trailer tongue and two lateral guide plates pivotally attached to the pivot plate in a V-shaped configuration. A stop plate is disposed across the base of the V-shaped configuration. In use, the hitch guide pivots to an extended position beneath the hitch socket at the end of the trailer tongue to guide the ball under the socket, and pivots to a retracted position beneath the trailer tongue after alignment.
