Device for connecting tractors and trailers

摘要

A front-wheel steering system for trailers of multi-articulated large-capacity road trains is advantageously easy to steer, easy to manipulate and simple to maintain if the pivoting device is additionally connected by horizontally arranged shock absorbers to the towbar or the turntable ring. The shock absorbers absorb the horizontal impacts which in particular when driving over track grooves or similar unevennesses act upon the road train and in particular also on the pivoting device. <IMAGE>
