Embodiment Construction

[0022] figure 1 A coupling system 1 is shown comprising a traction seat plate 10 and a bearing seat 30 and at least one sensor 50 . The traction seat plate 10 is supported about the transverse axis Q relative to the bearing seat 30 . The bearing block 30 has two contact surfaces 32 which lie in the contact plane A. The bearing block 30 has two measuring surfaces 16 which are respectively arranged in the entry direction E in front of and behind the transverse axis Q. These measurement surfaces 16 have outwardly directed normals which are parallel to the normal NA of the contact plane and / or the outwardly directed normal N12 of the trailer surface 12 . A sensor 50 interacts metrologically with each of these measurement surfaces 16 . In the embodiment shown, the measurement sensor 50 is arranged on the surface of the tow bed 10 opposite the trailer surface 12 . Alternatively or additionally preferably, these measuring systems (sensor 50 and measuring surface 16 ) can also be ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a coupling system (1) for a towing vehicle, comprising at least one sensor (50), preferably a plurality of sensors (50), and further comprising a towing seat arrangement, the towing seat arrangement having a towing seat plate (10) and at least one bearing seat (30), the towing seat plate (10) having a towing surface (12) and an access opening (14), the towing surface (12) having an outwardly directed normal (N12), the traction seat plate (10) has an inlet opening (14) which extends in an inlet direction (E), and wherein the traction seat plate (10) is mounted so as to be pivotable about a transverse axis (Q) relative to the bearing seat (30), and wherein the bearing seat (30) has a contact surface (32) which lies in a contact plane (A), the sensor (50) indirectly and / or directly detects the pitch angle around the transverse axis (Q) in a non-contact manner, and wherein the sensor (50) is arranged in close proximity to the traction seat plate (10).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a coupling system, in particular with a traction seat arrangement. Background technique [0002] Tow mount arrangements are well known in the art and are used to be able to receive a kingpin of a trailer and to be able to transmit force from the tractor to the kingpin. These hitch arrangements are designed such that the hitch pan of the hitch assembly can be pivoted relative to the tractor about a transverse axis. The angle of position of the hitch pan about the transverse axis relative to the tractor is also known in the art as the pitch angle. Knowledge of this pitch angle can provide information especially about critical driving situations. To determine the pitch angle, the best known method is to use a space-dense and error-prone measurement system. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0003] It is therefore an object of the present invention to specify a coupling system that is compact and capable of measuring the pitch angle o...
