Towing device with damping function

Abstract

The present disclosure belongs to a towing device with a damping function. The towing device includes a towing main body and a towing assembly mounted on the towing main body; the towing main body includes a towing cantilever and a vertical adjustment arm arranged at an end part of the towing cantilever; one end of the towing cantilever is connected to the vertical adjustment arm, and the other end is provided with several fixing holes; the towing cantilever is fixed, through fixing pins, on a fixed seat pre-arranged at a rear end of a towing vehicle; a cushion is sleeved on the towing cantilever. The cushion fills a gap between the tightening screw and the fixed seat, and an activity space where the fixing pins are threaded into the fixing holes is also greatly narrowed; the axial movement of the towing cantilever after the mounting is restrained.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of vehicle traction, in particular to a towing device with a damping function.BACKGROUND ART[0002]At present, there are more and more towing devices in daily life, which are used in more and more extensive scenarios. For example, during the use, a vehicle may possibly break down and need a rescue by a trailer. There are also some vehicles such as recreational vehicles, motorcycles, and speedboats, which require towing in transferring and moving processes. Therefore, in order to facilitate the towing, a tow hook assembly will be mounted at a front end of a towed vehicle, and a suitable towing device should be mounted at a rear end of the towing vehicle.[0003]There are various types of towing devices in the prior art, each of which usually includes a towing arm and a towing ball end. The towing arm and the towing ball end are detachably connected by a bolt. There is inevitably a gap between a pin hole and a pin...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention relates to a towing device, which includes a towing main body and a towing assembly. The towing main body is connected to the towing vehicle, and the towing assembly is connected to the towed vehicle. To avoid instability and swaying of the towing device, a cushion is placed on the towing cantilever. The cushion fills the gap between the towing cantilever and the fixed seat, reduces the space between the fixing pins and holes, and restrains the axial movement of the towing cantilever. The cushion also reduces noise, prevents damage to the towing device, and prolongs its lifespan. Furthermore, the cushion absorbs and relieves the impact force caused by road conditions, ensuring safer towing and protection of the towing device.

Problems solved by technology

For example, during the use, a vehicle may possibly break down and need a rescue by a trailer.

There is inevitably a gap between a pin hole and a pin shaft, swaying easily occurs during use.

In the towing process, collision continuously occurs, which makes large noise, and even the towing device and a vehicle body are abraded.

This is not conductive for smooth towing and safe towing.
