Trailer coupling connector to vehicle part - contains pressure sensor measuring pressure of incompressible fluid between force transfer surfaces

摘要

The arrangement connects a trailer coupling (1,13) to a vehicle part (8) with a transfer surface (6) for taking up the axial force to be transferred in the coupling direction has a counter surface on a coupling bearing used to axially fix and guide the coupling. The transfer surfaces are arranged at an axial distance from each other. The space (7) between them is filled with an incompressible fluid. There is a pressure sensor (10) which measures the pressure in the fluid. USE/ADVANTAGE - Contains simple mechanism for continuous measurement of axial force.
