Abstract
A swivel connection adapted to be interposed between a motorcycle, or other small vehicle, and a trailer being towed thereby in order to isolate any variation of the vertical orientation of the motorcycle from the trailer. The swivel connection comprises a channel member secured to the usual hitch assembly normally provided for the motorcycle, and a box member secured to the channel member for receiving a spindle member therein. The spindle member is rigidly secured to the box member and extends axially outwardly therefor for rotational connection with a sleeve member secured to the usual tongue provided on the trailer. The rotation connection between the spindle member and sleeve member permits the vertical variations of the motorcycle to be absorbed, thus isolating the trailer therefrom.
