Abstract
A tension bar especially a lifting bar, connects the lower steering arm of a three-point attaching device to the associated force arm of a tractor. The lifting arm is connected to the force arm and lower steering arm through attaching ends. A tension axis extends through the attaching ends of the lifting bar. The lift bar 5, in the direction transverse to the tension axis 12, is divided into an upper bar part 9 and a lower bar part 10. The upper bar part 9 and the lower bar part 10 are connected to one another by a bending beam 11, which is arranged outside the tension axis 12. The upper bar part 9 and the lower bar part 10 are separated from one another by a gap 13 which extends transversely to the tension axis 12 and to the bending beam 11. At the end of the transverse tension axis 12 facing away from the bending beam 11 a connecting element 15 is provided which is anchored both to the upper bar part 9 and to the lower bar part 10. The connecting element 15 limits the change in the width of the gap. A measuring device 19 is coupled with the lower bar part to measure the width of the gap.
