6、andards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International o

7、rganizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules giv

8、en in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least

9、75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 1103 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 22, Roa

BS ISO 1103:2007blank1Road vehicles Coupling balls for caravans and light trailers Dimensions 1 Scope This International Standar

11、d lays down the dimensions necessary for the compatibility of mechanical coupling devices between light trailers or caravans and towing vehicles, when the latter are fitted with a coupling ball. The clearance space around the coupling ball is intended to allow coupling and decoupling of towed vehicl

12、es, as well as safe operation during coupling and uncoupling of mechanical devices. This International Standard applies to coupling balls designed to couple caravans and light trailers of categories O1and O21)to vehicles of categories M or N. It does not necessarily apply to special trailers drawn b

26、is height shall be measured shall be the maximum permissible mass, distributed between axles as declared by the towing vehicle manufacturer. BS ISO 1103:200734.2 Dimensional characteristics 4.2.1 General The dimensions of the coupling ball shall comply with those specified in Figure 1 and the requir

27、ements in 4.2.2 and 4.2.3, including those related to using conditions. Dimensions in millimetres Surface roughness in micrometres Key 1 ISO mark aCorresponds to the class of roughness N 9, as stipulated in ISO 1302:2002. bNot necessary if the ball is in two parts.

BS ISO 1103:20074 4.2.3 Ball neck The diameter of the neck of the ball shall be between 27 mm and 29 mm, down to a horizontal plane situated at not less than 32 mm below the centre of the sphere. 4.3 Installation dimensions 4.3.1 Positioning The axis

30、 of the ball neck passes through the centre of the ball and shall be vertical down to a horizontal plane located not less than 32 mm below the centre of the ball. The theoretical geometric position of the ball centre defined by the towing device manufacturer shall be situated in a 5 mm radius sphere

31、. The centre of this sphere is defined by the vehicle manufacturer or bodybuilder in relation to the fixing point of the towing device. Further information is given in ISO 3853:1994, 7.2. The centre of the sphere shall be located at a distance from the ground between 350 mm and 420 mm when it compli

32、es with the method described in Clause 5, except for N2, N3 and off road2)vehicles. 4.3.2 Clearance space around the coupling ball a) The clearance space to be maintained around the coupling ball shall be as indicated in Figure 2. This clearance space is provided to allow normal coupling and uncoupl

33、ing operations with angles 10 and 60. It shall be possible to handle the coupling head or any device adaptable to the ball in the clearance space defined in Figures 2 a) and 2 b). This clearance space enables displacements of the coupling head up to = 25 and = 60. b) The clearance space may be occup

34、ied by removable equipment, such as a spare wheel. It is recommended that such equipment be mounted to one side of the coupling, to allow adequate access and reduce the risk of (hand) injuries to users during coupling and uncoupling. c) When a trailer is not coupled to the towing vehicle, the mounte

35、d towing bracket and coupling ball shall not obscure the mounting space provided for the rear registration plate, nor affect the visibility of the rear registration plate of the towing vehicle. If coupling balls or other items do obscure the registration plate, they shall be removable or repositiona

36、ble without the use of tools, except for example an easily operated (i.e. an effort not exceeding 20 Nm) release key which is carried in the vehicle. When such parts are dismantled, the parts of the coupling device that are still mounted on the vehicle shall comply with UN-ECE Regulation No.26, deal

40、n plane of the vehicle. c) The pressure of the tyres shall be adjusted to the pressure recommended by the manufacturer for the specified loading condition. d) The load of the vehicle shall conform to the load specified in 4.1. e) The brakes shall not be run and the transmission shall be in the neutr

41、al position, or in “N” or “P” positions for the vehicles equipped with an automatic or semi-automatic transmission. f) The vehicles equipped with hydro pneumatic, hydraulic or pneumatic suspension or a device for automatic adjustment according to the load shall be tested in the conditions specified

42、by the manufacturer. 6 Marking Coupling balls complying with the requirements of this International Standard shall have the marking “ISO 50” applied on the flat circular surface of diameter (17 2) mm, as defined in Figure 1. This marking only implies dimensional conformity with Figure 1. If necessar

43、y, this marking may be complemented by a marking ensuring traceability and by the marking prescribed in ISO 3853. Coupling balls which do not conform totally to this International Standard shall have the marking indicating the diameter of the spherical surface. BS ISO 1103:20078 Bibliography 1 ISO 2
