Abstract: An adjustable fifth wheel hitch for towing a trailer behind a motor vehicle includes a support frame having a pair of spaced guide rails. A head assembly for engaging the trailer is coupled to the support frame through an adjustment assembly so as to be selectively displaceable between a towing position and a maneuvering position. A locking assembly releasably locks the head assembly in the towing and maneuvering positions. The locking assembly includes a locking arm positionable in a locked position, which is engaged with one of the pair of spaced guide rails, and an unlocked position. The locking arm includes a camming surface that cooperates with a locking cam so as to position the locking arm in the locked position and the unlocked position.

Abstract: A weight distributing hitch system is provided with a shank and a head which is angularly adjustable relative to the shank. The head includes a plurality of adjustment teeth which are engaged by a toothed caster having corresponding teeth. The toothed caster has a mounting hole which is offset relative to a center of the tooth configuration so as to allow the toothed caster to be rotated 180 degrees in order to allow for angular adjustment of the head relative to the shank. In addition, the head is provided with both, mounting holes for receiving round spring bars and receptor grooves on a lower surface of an upper flange for receiving a trunnion-type spring bar.

Abstract: An electronic brake controller operates in both an automatic and manual mode. In the automatic mode, the electronic brake controller applies a pre-specified percentage of braking for the brakes of a towed vehicle. In the manual mode, the electronic brake controller is capable of applying one-hundred percent of braking regardless of the setting for the pre-specified percentage of braking set for the automatic mode.
