摘要： A hitch apparatus includes a frame configured to be secured to a vehicle and that is pivotable about a first axis, a guide that is movably secured to the frame and pivotable about a second axis substantially transverse to the first axis, and a tow bar movably secured to the guide and movable relative to the guide between retracted and extended positions. The hitch apparatus includes a user controlled positioning system with a user input device that is configured to allow a user to extend and retract the tow bar and to articulate the tow bar up-down and left-right so as to position the tow bar distal end at a desired position within a three-dimensional coordinate system.

摘要： A hitch system for connecting a towed vehicle to a towing vehicle includes a hitch apparatus attached to the towing vehicle and a control system operably associated with the hitch apparatus. The hitch apparatus includes a frame movably secured to the towing vehicle, and a hitch member secured to the frame that is configured to receive a coupling apparatus of the towed vehicle. The frame is movable relative to the towing vehicle such that the hitch member can be positioned rearward of the towing vehicle at any location within a defined three-dimensional space. The frame is configured to maintain the hitch member in a substantially level orientation at all locations within the three-dimensional space. The control system is configured to move the hitch member to a desired location within the three-dimensional space.

摘要： A hitch coupler receiving apparatus includes a base having opposite first and second surfaces, and a pair of spaced-apart first and second openings extending through the base from the first surface to the second surface. A pair of opposing, elongated first and second walls extend outwardly from the base first surface in adjacent, spaced-apart relationship. Each wall includes a plurality of spaced apertures formed therethrough. A hitch coupler is secured to the apparatus via a fastener that engages aligned apertures in the respective first and second walls. Each wall overlies a respective one of the first and second openings and includes an access opening. Each access opening is substantially larger than a respective opening in the base and facilitates insertion of a fastener into a respective opening in the base and rotation of the fastener via a tool.

摘要： A hitch apparatus for a vehicle includes a microcontroller unit, a drawbar, and a coupling apparatus secured within the drawbar via a pin. The pin and/or the drawbar includes one or more force sensors, each configured to measure a force vector on the pin and/or drawbar during towing of a trailer or other vehicle attached to the coupling apparatus. Each force sensor is electrically connected to the microcontroller unit, and the microcontroller unit is configured to receive force measurement data from each force sensor and process the data for transfer to a vehicle control system via a controller area network bus associated with the vehicle. The microcontroller unit may determine if one or more threshold forces have been exceeded and trigger one or more corrective actions by the vehicle control system in response to determining that a threshold force has been exceeded.

摘要： Systems and methods for aligning a towing vehicle trailer hitch with the tongue of a trailer/towed vehicle are provided that enable a driver to know when the towing vehicle trailer hitch is close enough to the trailer tongue such that the two can be coupled. A trailer hitch includes a tow bar having a free end configured to be coupled to a trailer tongue. An alignment system includes at least one energy emitter secured to the vehicle that emits energy in the direction of the trailer tongue, and at least two sensors secured to the vehicle in spaced-apart relationship. The energy emitter(s) and sensors may be secured to the trailer or trailer hitch.
