;about

This invention relates to the towing of automobiles or other vehicles.

The closest technical solution to the invention is a combined vehicle tow, having a hull made of at least two parts fastened by a threaded joint and hooks mounted on the ends of the hull 1.

However, a known tug can only be used to tow trucks that have towing gears, is not adapted to tow cars, and causes dynamic loads during coupling.

The purpose of the invention is to improve the performance of the tug by reducing the dynamic loads on coupled cars.

This goal is achieved by the fact that in a combined vehicle tow, there is a hull made of at least two parts fastened by a threaded connection, and hooks mounted at the ends of the hull, the latter made of pipes adjustable in length by threaded couplings, with In this case, elastic dampers are fixed at the ends of the casing, and a cable is passed inside the casing, at the ends of which the specified hooks are fixed, the gripping part of one of the hooks being located under the straight

6/2

angle to its longitudinal axis. In addition, the captures are made in the form of carbines.

FIG. 1 shows the device, a general view; in fig. 2 - carbine, top view.

Combined tow has body

1, consisting of parts 2-4, connected by threaded couplings 5. At the ends of the yuxir, there are hooks carbines 6 and 7 connected by a cable 8. Hook 6 is placed under the bumper 9 of the passenger car and connected to the bracket 10.

Hook 7 is connected to the towing vehicle 11. At the ends of the tug fixed elastic dampers 12.

The device works as follows.

If towing is done by a passenger car, traction carbines are attached to the rear bumper bracket. The pipes are twisted with couplings in such a way that they rest against the stops on the carbines and fix the rigidity of the tug. The thread on the couplings and on the ends of the pipes allows you to select the tug's backlash when coupling.

The use of the proposed device allows towing without jerks and skids, unlike rigid tows, which are not used for towing passenger cars. The tug is transported compactly, which is inherent only in flexible tugs, is easy to use and store, and also clears the class of tug masters.
