In order to connect a trailer coupling, in particular for motor vehicles, comprising a ball neck, a cross member, which is provided with a holding unit for the ball neck, and also two spaced attachment parts, which engage on the cross member and connect the cross member to mounting elements, which are themselves mountable on a rear part of a motor vehicle body, in such a manner that undesirable moments and/or forces are transferred to the motor vehicle body on the lowest possible scale, it is proposed that a connection between the cross member and the mounting elements is achieved only by means of the attachment parts, that the attachment parts have a cross member holding strip element connected to the cross member and that, through at least one curved strip element running to the cross member without connection, the cross member holding strip element runs to a mounting strip element, which is connected to the respective mounting element.
A trailer coupling for motor vehicles, comprising a ball neck, a cross member, which is provided with a holding unit for the ball neck, and two spaced attachment parts, which engage on the cross member and connect the cross member to mounting elements, the mounting elements mountable on a rear part of a motor vehicle body, a connection between the cross member and the mounting elements being achieved only by means of the attachment parts, the attachment parts having a cross member holding strip element connected to a partial peripheral region of the cross member outside a peripheral region facing towards the mounting element and, further having at least one curved strip element extending without connection to the cross member, and connecting the cross member holding strip element to a mounting strip element, which is connected to the respective mounting element.
A trailer coupling for motor vehicles, comprising a ball neck, a cross member which is provided with a holding unit for the ball neck, and also two spaced attachment parts, which engage on the cross member and connect the cross member to mounting elements, the mounting elements mountable on a rear part of a motor vehicle body, connection between the cross member and the mounting elements being achieved only by means of the attachment parts, the attachment parts having a cross member holding strip element connected to the cross member and, at least one curved strip element running to the cross member without connection from the cross member holding strip element to a mounting strip element, which is connected to the respective mounting element, wherein the at least one curved strip element engages over the cross member on a side facing towards a road surface.
A trailer coupling for motor vehicles, comprising a ball neck, a cross member, which is provided with a holding unit for the ball neck, and two spaced attachment parts, which engage on the cross member and connect the cross member to mounting elements, the mounting elements mountable on a rear part of a motor vehicle body, a connection between the cross member and the mounting elements being achieved only by means of the attachment parts, and the attachment parts having a cross member holding strip element connected to the cross member and, engaging on the connected to a peripheral region of the cross member, which lies outside a peripheral region of the cross member directed towards the respective mounting element, the cross member holding strip element being connected to a mounting strip element, through at least one curved strip element extending without connection to the cross member, which mounting strip element is connected to the respective mounting element.
A trailer coupling, for motor vehicles, comprising a ball neck, a cross member, which is provided with a holding unit for the ball neck, and also two spaced attachment parts, which engage on the cross member and connect the cross member to mounting elements, the mounting elements mountable on a rear part of a motor vehicle body, a connection between the cross member and the mounting elements being achieved only by means of the attachment parts, the attachment parts having a cross member holding strip element connected to the cross member and, at least one curved strip element extending to the cross member without connection from the cross member holding strip element to a mounting strip element, wherein the at least one curved strip element engages over the cross member on a side facing away from a road surface.
A trailer coupling for motor vehicles, comprising a ball neck, a cross member, which is provided with a holding unit for the ball neck, and also two spaced attachment parts, which engage on the cross member and connect the cross member to mounting elements, the mounting elements mountable on a rear part of a motor vehicle body, a connection between the cross member and the mounting elements being achieved only by means of the attachment parts, the attachment parts having a cross member holding strip element connected to a peripheral region of the cross member and at least one curved strip element running without connection to the cross member and extending from the cross member holding strip element to a mounting strip element, the at least one curved strip element has at least one elastic region, the bending elasticity of which is greater in a longitudinal direction of the cross member than the bending elasticity in the region of the cross member holding strip element or the mounting strip element which extends in a non-contact manner relative to the cross member and which is connected to the respective mounting element.
