The present invention relates to an apparatus for reducing sway of a trailer towed by a towing vehicle. The apparatus comprises a draw bar for linking a trailer to a vehicle and means for hitching the trailer to the draw bar and for hitching the draw bar to the vehicle. The apparatus also comprises a body associated with the hitching means such that horizontal angular movement of the draw arm relative to the draw bar causes a substantially equivalent horizontal angular movement of the body relative to the draw bar. The apparatus further comprises means linked to the body for dampening horizontal angular movement of the body and, thereby, dampening horizontal angular movement of the trailer.
L~invention concerne un appareil servant à réduire le louvoiement d~une remorque tirée par un véhicule de remorquage. L~appareil comprend une barre de traction servant à relier une remorque à un véhicule et un moyen d~accrochage de la remorque à la barre de traction et d~accrochage de la barre de traction au véhicule. L~appareil comprend également un corps associé au moyen d~accrochage de telle sorte qu~un mouvement angulaire horizontal du bras de traction par rapport à la barre de traction provoque un mouvement angulaire horizontal sensiblement équivalent du corps par rapport à la barre de traction. L~appareil comprend également un moyen couplé au corps servant à amortir le mouvement angulaire horizontal du corps et donc de la remorque.
