Drawbar eyes are essential components in towing and hauling applications, providing a strong and secure attachment point between the trailer and the towing vehicle. They are designed to endure extreme pulling forces, making them suitable for heavy-duty applications.

Towing Vehicle and Articulated Trailer

 

The formula for calculating the theoretical horizontal traction force between the towing vehicle and the articulated trailer is:

D(kN)=g.T.R/T+R

 

Where:

  • T: Total weight of the towing vehicle, in tons (t)
  • R: Total weight of the articulated trailer, in tons (t)
  • g: Acceleration due to gravity, 9.81 m/s²
  •  

The theoretical horizontal traction force refers to the force required to pull the articulated trailer horizontally by the towing vehicle.

 

The calculated value of D can be equal to or less than the D value of the connection between the towing vehicle and the trailer. This ensures that the connection is capable of withstanding the required force safely.

 

Towing Vehicle and Center-Axle Trailer

 

The formula for calculating the theoretical horizontal traction force is:

DC(kN)=g.T.C/T+C​

 

Where:

  • T: Total weight of the towing vehicle, in tons (t)
  • C: Total weight of the center-axle trailer, in tons (t)
  • g: Acceleration due to gravity, 9.81 m/s²
  •  

The calculated DC value can be equal to or less than the D value of the connector.
