It's the same as a weight distributing hitch.. lift bars attached at hitch
ball bars stick out back, chains are attched to a pivot to lift the bars,
the more you lift on the bars the more the center of gravity is moved
forward and the more weight is distributed accross the tow vehicle..

select weight distributing hitches.
I use it to level my truck after hitching trailer. Trailers are designed to
have a specific hitch height for good towing.
Nothing worse than the front wheels bouncing off the ground.

hmm I fail to see how this would work, and did you notice it is spring
steel(bars made of spring steel), not spring loaded suspension bars. and
also chains seem slack to me,
