HITCH SYSTEM, VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH SUCH A SYSTEM, ASSEMBLY KIT AND CORRESPONDING METHODS FOR ASSEMBLY, OPERATION AND USE
A coupling system includes three axes to enable a trailer to be articulated in all directions when the trailer is hitched to a towing vehicle, such as a tractor. The pitch axis, which is either centered with the other two axes or is offset towards the tractor, limits the forces transmitted to the tractor drawbar in the case of a high vertical load. Thus, the coupling system with three offset axes provides the fundamental advantages of a universal joint but, by offsetting the pitch axis forward, the coupling system particularly and advantageously provides an additional and innovative solution whereby large vertical loads from certain machines towed on the tractor drawbar can be better withstood.

Un système d?attelage comportant 3 axes pour assurer l?articulation, dans tous les sens, d?une remorque lorsqu?elle est attelée à un véhicule de traction (ex. un tracteur). L?axe assurant le tangage étant soit centré avec les deux autres axes, soit déporté vers le tracteur, permet de limiter les efforts transmis à la barre d?attelage du tracteur en cas de charge verticale élevée. Le présent système à 3 axes déportés procure donc les principes et avantages du fonctionnement d?un joint universel mais en déportant l?axe du tangage vers l?avant, ceci qui permet notamment, et avantageusement, de façon additionnelle et innovatrice, de mieux supporter les charges verticales imposantes de certaines machines trainées sur la barre d?attelage du tracteur.
