Abstract:
A self-locking, safety hitch pin for connecting the tongue of a farm implement to the drawbar of a towing vehicle, such as a tractor. The pin has a handle pivotally connected to it at its upper end, the handle extending to the lower end of the pin to prevent it from inadvertently falling out of the connection. A spring-biased locking member is combined with the upper end of the handle and pin to automatically lock the handle in place when the handle is lowered to a closed position.
