Abstract: A bicycle rack adapted to be detachably mounted to a passenger vehicle via a standard trailer hitch with the bicycle rack having a vertical support pivotally connected at one end to a base assembly with an upper crossbar assembly pivotally connected to the other end via a removable and reversible crossbar bracket on which a clamp arm is removably mounted. A pull pin releasably locks the vertical tube in an upright position to the base assembly and another pull pin locks the upper crossbar assembly in a horizontal position to the vertical support. Spacers may be removably inserted in downwardly depending flanges of the base assembly to mount it to a relatively narrow trailer hitch.

Abstract: A device for controlling sway of a towed vehicle having a trailer tongue member connected to the trailer hitch member of a towing vehicle. A bar universally pivotally connected to one of the members extends through a brake assembly mounted to the other of the members for pivotal movement relative thereto about only a single axis. Within the brake assembly, the bar is contacted by friction surfaces while being permitted to move in directions parallel to the pivot axis of the assembly.
