Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2022218803A1] The present invention relates to a ball head coupling (1) for a towing vehicle of a vehicle combination with a ball head (10), which extends substantially along a longitudinal axis (X'). The ball head coupling (1) is characterised by having at least one wear detection means (6) which is aligned perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (X) and arranged in the ball head (10) in such a way that wear of the ball head (10) perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (X') can be detected optically and/or by sensors.
