Abstract: A torsion hitch receiver is provided having a frame that has a portion that mounts to a vehicle. The frame includes an upper torsion tube that carries an upper torsion bar. Attached to the upper torsion tube is a torsion housing that affixes a lower torsion tube. The upper torsion bar has an upper torsion arm that rotates with the upper torsion bar, and a lower torsion bar, carried within the lower torsion tube, the lower torsion bar has lower torsion arms. Both upper and lower torsion arms attach to a receiver housing that can receive a draw bar. As weight is applied to the receiver housing, the torsion bars allow rotation. As the torsion bars rotate, the receiver housing moves up and down.

Abstract: A torsion hitch receiver is provided having a draw bar that is adapted to be received by a vehicle mounted receiver. The torsion hitch receiver has an upper and lower torsion assembly with arms that are linked to a receiver assembly. The receiver assembly has an array of receivers that are sized to receive an accessory draw bar. Applying a downward force to the receiver assembly causes rotation of the arms.
