Abstract: A plug-in coupling system for a commercial vehicle includes a primary coupling device having a plug console with transmission contacts that point in a plug-in direction, a secondary coupling device having a connection console configured such that the plug console and the connection console are connected to one another so that information and/or energy can be transmitted between the plug console and the connection console, or disconnected from one another where no information and/or energy can be transmitted between the plug console and the connection console, and a locking device is configured to move between a locking position to prevent a transfer from the coupling position to the disconnecting position and a release position to permit a transfer from the coupling position to the disconnecting position.

Abstract: A fifth wheel system includes a fifth wheel configured to couple to a kingpin of a towed trailer such that vibrations are generated when the fifth wheel couples to the kingpin. A sensor in operative association with the fifth wheel and configured to sense the vibrations and generates vibration data. A controller receives the vibration data and processes the vibration data to detect a presence or an absence of a predetermined vibration component that occurs when the fifth wheel properly couples to the kingpin. An indicator indicates proper coupling of the fifth wheel to the kingpin when the predetermined vibration component is present.

Abstract: A security lock system for a fifth wheel hitch is system that restricts access to the connection between a fifth wheel hitch and a truck bed. The system includes a receiver lock, a fifth wheel hitch, a first sleeve, a second sleeve, a lock engagement channel, and a key. The receiver lock shields a securing mechanism of the fifth wheel hitch. The receiver lock connects with a base frame of the fifth wheel hitch through the lock engagement channel. The first sleeve and the second sleeve uphold the receiver lock against the lock engagement channel. A retractable locking bolt and a locking assembly are connected to each other with the key. The retractable locking bolt and the locking assembly remain stationary as the retractable locking bolt includes a first tubular body and a first stopper, and the locking assembly includes a second tubular body and a second stopper.

Abstract: A fifth wheel for locking to a kingpin of a towed trailer includes an operating arm pivotable into and between a locked position for locking the kingpin in the fifth wheel and an unlocked position in which the kingpin can be removed from or inserted into the fifth wheel and a housing coupled to the operating arm. A pull handle is slidable in the housing into and between an extended position in which the pull handle extends from the housing and a retracted position in which the pull handle is retracted into the housing. A spring in the housing biases the pull handle towards the retracted position. When the operating arm is pivoted into the locked position the pull handle is forced into the extended position, and after the operating arm is pivoted to the unlocked position the pull handle moves to the retracted position.
