Längskraftabstützung des Kupplungskörpers einer Anhängerkupplung

A mounting for the draw rod of the coupling body of a trailer coupling is proposed. The draw rod passes through a cross-piece bore of a cross-piece fast with the towing vehicle. The cross-section of the draw rod at the passage through the cross-piece bore corresponds to the cross-section of the cross-piece bore. A bearing tube secured to the cross-piece for the guidance of the draw rod extends from the cross-piece only in the direction pointing away from the coupling body. Between the end of the draw rod remote from the cross-piece and the end of the bearing tube remote from the cross-piece a support acting in both force directions is provided, that is to say a support for traction force transmission and a support for thrust force transmission. In the solution according to the invention the cross-section of the draw rod can be enlarged compared with conventional forms of embodiment.
