Abstract

Coupling arm (4) is firmly coupled to rotary axis member in rotary bearing (2) for arm swivel and head piece position change in car longitudinal direction, as specified. Swivel and/or rotary motion of coupling arm from rest to working position, and vice versa, is carried out by motor(s). Rope, belt, lever or chain transmission links motor(s) to coupling arm guide, or coupling arm with ball. Securing of coupling arm on housing of trailer coupler is carried out by extra locking elements.
