Abstract
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.
