The rod (1) has a pivot rod (2) that is arranged with a head section (3) on which an upstream articulation unit (4) such as kneecap sphere, is arranged. The pivot rod is arranged such that the head section presents a progressive decrease (10) of its cross-...

The rod (1) e.g. direction rod, has a shaft (2) that is arranged for connecting a joint (3) with another joint (7). The former joint and the latter joint are fixed on the shaft remotely from each other by a set of fixing interfaces (5, 6). The shaft is arr...

The device (8) has an oil cylinder (9) axially traversed via a movable rod carrying a piston (10). The rod forms a portion (2a) of a rack-and-pinion (2) surrounded by the cylinder. Communication channels (14, 18, 22) comprise non return valves (21, 24) and...

The assembly has a distance sensor (3) emitting and receiving a pair of telemetric signals (Sr) e.g. laser signals. A processing unit processes the signals reflected by a towed vehicle (1) and received by the sensor. A computing unit calculates angular pos...
