Abstract: A fifth wheel hitch is shown and described. The fifth wheel hitch may include a base frame configured to be secured to a load bed of a towing vehicle, a trolley operatively engaged with the base frame, the trolley adapted to move along the base frame between first and second positions, and a cam member attached with the base frame, the cam member having a cam path. The fifth wheel hitch may also include a cam follower coupled with the trolley, the cam follower operatively engaged with the cam path, and a fifth wheel head pivotally coupled with the trolley, where the trolley is moved between the first and second positions in response to pivoting of the fifth wheel head.

Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and other embodiments for fifth wheel hitch assemblies are described herein. In one embodiment, a remotely controlled fifth wheel hitch assembly comprises a mounting rail, a head assembly, a locking arm, an actuation mechanism, and a remote control device. The mounting rail is coupled to a towing vehicle and the head assembly is slidably coupled to the mounting rail. The head assembly is capable of securing a trailer to the towing vehicle. The locking arm includes a locked position and an unlocked position. In the locked position, the head assembly is statically secured to the mounting rail. The actuation mechanism is coupled to the locking arm to move the locking arm between the locked and unlocked positions. The remote control device is coupled to the actuation mechanism such that the remote control initiates the actuation mechanism to move the locking arm between the locked and unlocked positions.
