Patent number: 6997472Abstract: A trailer towing device can be swivelled from an operative position into an inoperative position and back. During an adjusting from the operative position into the inoperative position, a socket for an electrical plug device of a trailer is continuously taken along. The coupling neck of the trailer towing device as well as the socket are covered in the vehicle in their inoperative position.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2003Date of Patent: February 14, 2006Assignee: Dr. Ing. h.c.F. Porsche AktiengesellschaftInventors: Peter Reutlinger, Eberhard Palmer, Andreas Piede

Patent number: 6908095Abstract: A towing device has a ball neck equipped with a ball head that can be moved by a spindle adjusting element back and forth from an operative position into an inoperative position. The ball neck is arranged in a rotary block which is swivellably held in a carrier part. For supporting the ball neck in all possible loading directions, supporting surfaces, a torsion stop as well as a detent pawl are provided so that a movement of the coupling neck is avoided when forces act upon it, and a precise position is ensured in the operative position.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2003Date of Patent: June 21, 2005Assignee: Dr. Ing. h.c.F.

Patent number: 6908130Abstract: In order to prevent a rear bumper from penetrating in the event of a crash so far into the vehicle body that a rear flap can no longer be operated, a so-called supporting element is arranged within the bumper in the area of the longitudinal center plane of the vehicle and/or at the ends, which supporting element constructs the bumper in a rigid manner in this area.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2003Date of Patent: June 21, 2005Assignee: Dr. Ing. h.c.F. Porsche AktiengesellschaftInventors: Peter Reutlinger, Eberhard Palmer, Andreas Piede

Patent number: 6863295Abstract: A trailer coupling for motor vehicles able to be moved from a working position to a resting position and the reverse. To increase safety, a motion of the trailer coupling is allowed only if the velocity of the motor vehicle is <=5 Km/h, if the rear window or tailgate is open and if no trailer is fastened on the coupling. The motion is stopped if the torque of the drive motor exceeds a specifiable reference value.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2003Date of Patent: March 8, 2005Assignee: Ing. h.c.F. Porsche AGInventors: Peter Reutlinger, Andreas Piede, Eberhard Palmer
