Abstract
The present disclosure is directed toward sway control systems for adjustably controlling sway between a trailer and towing vehicle through use of frictional forces that include a tow bar assembly, a connector assembly, a tensioner spanning the width of the housing of the tow bar assembly, and a crank assembly. Within the tow bar assembly, a slide bar is frictionally engaged with the housing, and the relative friction may be controlled by increasing or decreasing compression of the at least one brake pad through adjustment of the compression plate toward or away from the interconnecting web. The present disclosure attempts to improve ease of use by utilizing a single adjustment point.
