A towing apparatus mounted to a frame of a vehicle includes a receiver and an energy management device. The receiver is operably connected to the energy management device and the energy management device is operably connected to the vehicle frame. When the receiver is moved in a first tow direction, the energy management device is isolated and the tow force is coupled directly to the frame. However, when the energy management device is moved in a second, generally opposite direction, the energy management device reduces some or all of the force applied to the receiver from being transferred to the vehicle frame.

L'invention concerne un appareil de remorquage monté sur le châssis d'un véhicule, comprenant un récepteur et un dispositif de gestion d'énergie. Le récepteur est connecté au dispositif de gestion d'énergie, et le dispositif de gestion d'énergie est connecté au châssis du véhicule. Lorsque le récepteur est déplacé dans une première direction de remorquage, le dispositif de gestion d'énergie est isolé et la force de remorquage est directement couplée au châssis. Cependant, lorsque le dispositif de gestion d'énergie est déplacé dans une seconde direction généralement opposée, le dispositif de gestion d'énergie empêche le transfert d'une partie ou de toute la force appliquée sur le récepteur au châssis du véhicule.
