ABSTRACT:
A single wheel support for a vehicle-towed trailer. The support includes a swivel plate mounted on the trailer for swiveling about an upright axis. An elongate arm assembly is mounted adjacent one of its ends on the swivel plate for swinging about a horizontal swing axis. The wheel in the support is rotatably mounted on the other end of the assembly rearwardly of the swing axis. The arm assembly is biased in a direction opposing the weight of the trailer by a coiled spring compressibly interposed between the plate and a back region of the arm assembly, and by a coiled spring under tension interposed between the plate and a front region of the assembly.
