    摘要: In order to improve a mounting system for a load carrier or a trailer coupling, comprising at least one mounting receptacle, which can be mounted on a rear section of a motor vehicle body, in such a way that a high weight saving is made possible, in particular in the case when a load carrier or a trailer coupling is not being used, it is proposed that the mounting system has a set of two mounting receptacles, which is configured such that each of the mounting receptacles in the mounted state is connected to the motor vehicle body by means of a mounting region for a rear-side impact or crash element provided on the motor vehicle body.

    摘要: The disclosure provides a vehicle body rear structure, which can reduce damage to the vehicle during a collision from the rear. The vehicle body rear structure includes a chassis rear, a hook reinforcement part fixed to a lower surface of the chassis rear; and a hook fixed on a back side of the chassis rear through the hook reinforcement part, in which the hook reinforcement part includes a plurality of part members independent from each other, the plurality of part members are connected in series and joined in a front-back direction of the vehicle to form a joint boundary part, and the joint boundary part is disposed with a weakened part on a side close to the chassis rear.

    摘要: A vehicle hitch assembly is provided. The receiver tube is connectable with a bumper structure and defines a longitudinally-extending opening. The hitch assembly includes a drawbar assembly with an elongated body and a rod. The elongated body is dimensioned to be received within the opening in the receiver tube and defines a longitudinally-extending passageway. The rod is rotatably received within the longitudinally-extending passageway between a first position and a second position. The rod includes a detent feature that couples together the elongated body and the receiver tube when the rod is rotated to the second position and detaches the elongated body and the receiver tube when the rod is rotated to the first position.

    摘要: A universal hitch system includes a vehicle that has a frame and the frame has a front end. A hitch is removably coupled to the frame and the hitch is positioned on the front end. The hitch may have an implement removably coupled thereto. Thus, the vehicle may tow the implement. The hitch comprises a central member and a pair of end members. The central member has an adjustable width such that the central member accommodates a variety of frame widths. Each of the end members is removably coupled to the central member. Each of the end members is removably coupled to the frame.

    摘要: The disclosed inventive concept provides a vertically articulating trailer hitch assembly for use with a vehicle, and particularly for use with an autonomous vehicle. The trailer hitch assembly is pivotally attached to the vehicle frame. The hitch assembly is allowed to swing away from the vehicle frame from a lowered position in which the trailer ball is uncoupled from the hitch coupler of the trailer to a raised position in which the trailer ball is coupled to the hitch coupler. The hitch assembly typically includes a receiver that has a long axis. The vehicle frame has a long axis. When the hitch assembly is in its lowered position, the long axis of the receiver is out of alignment with the long axis of the frame. When the hitch assembly is in its raised position, the long axis of the receiver is aligned with the long axis of the frame.

    摘要: A trailer hitch assembly for a vehicle includes a tubular beam, a trailer hitch, and a barrel nut. The tubular beam includes a first end sized for disposal within a first vehicle frame bracket, a second end sized for disposal within a second vehicle frame bracket, and a lowered portion therebetween. The tubular beam defines a through-hole at one of the ends. The trailer hitch is mounted to the lowered portion. The barrel nut extends through the through-hole, is secured to the tubular beam, and defines a cavity. The first vehicle frame bracket may define a first ring sized to receive the first end of the tubular beam. The second vehicle frame bracket may define a second ring sized to receive the second end of the tubular beam.

    摘要: In the case of a trailer coupling for motor vehicles, including a cross member, which is connectable to a motor vehicle body, and a bearing unit, which carries a ball neck that at a first end is connected to the bearing unit and at a second end carries a coupling ball, and a holding base, which carries the bearing unit and is connected to the cross member, it is proposed according to the invention that the holding base should have a flange unit, for receiving the bearing unit, and two holding elements that project from the flange unit and in so doing run at a spacing from one another and act on the cross member.
