Abstract

The invention relates to a monitoring and control device for articulated lorries, comprising a towing vehicle, which is provided with a remote-controllable fifth wheel (5) and a semi-trailer (2), which is provided with at least one electrically-driven device, such as landing gears (3). The inconvenience of the presently known systems is that said systems do not provide information to the driver relating to the operating states of the semi-trailer and require an interactive intervention of the driver. Moreover, the unpleasant and time-consuming operations, i. e. manually opening the fifth wheel and turning the crank of said landing gear, must be carried out by the driver. The aim of the present invention is thus to facilitate the time- and work-intensive operations when coupling and uncoupling the semi-trailer to and from the towing vehicle. Said aim is achieved, whereby a control device (4), which is arranged on the towing vehicle (1), is electrically connected to the fifth wheel (5) and at least one second communication device (6), which is arranged on the semi-trailer (2), is connected to the at least one electrically-driven device, whereby said control device (4) and said communication device (6) are wirelessly connected.
