4、ndards Committee of the BSI, is based upon data-sheet SMMT63:1957 of the Society of Motor Manufacturers and TradersLtd. The requirements of this standard, which relate only to vehicles used on the public highways, are intended to ensure the maximum degree of interchangeability between commercial and

5、 Government department and Services standards. Towing jaws may be forged(as shown in Figure) or cast. The material specifications are for the minimum qualities acceptable, and do not exclude the use of other materials provided that these are at least equal in quality so that road safety is not impai

6、red. This standard should be used in conjunction with BS AU29 1) . The jaw has been designed to accommodate a drawbar eye of3in internal diameter and 1 5 / 8in stock. The standard applies to connections to trailers of535 tons gross weight. Thespecification for a towing jaw for connections to trailer

7、s of514 tons gross weight is given in BS AU26 2) , and for trailers of25 tons gross in BSAU24 3) . NOTEIf it is required to convert the figures in this standard from British units into metric units it is recommended that the conversion factors and tables contained in BS350, “Conversion factors and t

8、ables”, be used. Attention is drawn to BS2856, “Precise conversion of inch and metric sizes on engineering drawings”. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a

The gross w

12、eight refers to gross laden train weights where more than one trailer is drawn. 2 Materials The jaw shall be made from a material of quality not less than BS970 4) . En3A for the forged jaw, or BS592A 5)for the cast jaw, both materials to be in their normalized condition. The towing pin shall be mad

13、e from a material of quality not less than BS970 4) . En16S. 3 Dimensions Dimensions shall be as shown in the Figure. Theringed dimensions are essential for interchangeability, other dimensions apply to the forged jaw and are for guidance only. NOTEThe dimensions specified for the forged jaws have b

14、een calculated on the basis of the total yield strength being not less than two thirds of the gross weight being towed, It is necessary that any other parts not covered by this standard, connecting the coupling to the towing vehicle shall have a similar strength. 4 Design An efficient safety locking

15、 device shall be provided as indicated in the Figure to prevent accidental extraction of the towing pin from the jaw. The jaw shall be so designed that a bar1 3 / 4in diameter may be passed freely between the pin and the inside face of the jaw(seeFigure). 5 Mounting The jaw shall be mounted with fou

16、r bolts, 3 / 4in diameter, at4in 4 in centres. This renders it interchangeable in mounting with hooks specified in BS AU25 6)and BS AU27 7) , and with certain Government department and Services standard hooks. Bolts and nuts shall comply with: i) BS1083, threaded BSF, code symbol R, or 8) ii) BS1768

17、, threaded UNF, code symbol R 9) . The nuts shall be secured either by peening the end of the bolt or by fitting a positive locking device such as a safe locking nut or a slotted nut and split pin. 6 Marking The following wording, in clear lettering 3 / 8in high, raised or impressed, shall be marked

18、 on each towing jaw: “TO TOW35 TONS GROSS” on one side, and on the other side BS AU28”. 4) BS970, “Wrought steels in the form of bars, billets and forgings, up to6in ruling section, for automobile and general engineering purposes. En series”. 5) BS592, (included in BS3100) “Carbon steel castings for

19、 general engineering purposes”. 6) BS AU25, “Towing hook for use between trailers of514 tons gross weight and towing vehicle”. 7) BS AU27, “Towing hook for use between trailers of535 tons gross weight and towing vehicle”. 8) BS1083, “Precision hexagon bolts, screws and nuts”. 9) BS1768, “Unified pre
