A clamping device for the ball of a towbar comprises a first clamping cup mounted for motion between an undamped and a clamped position via an over-centre pivot mechanism; a clamping bias applying a biasing force to the pivot mechanism to bias the first cup into a clamping position; a locking member pivotally mounted to the pivot mechanism which executes substantially linear motion during pivoting of the over-centre pivot mechanism; a friction clamp biased against the locking member during motion of the locking member caused by movement of the cup from a non-clamped position to a clamped position; a second clamping cup mounted for a predetermined magnitude of translational motion relative to the frame by means of a locking lever, from an unlocked position to a locked position.
