[0025] The present invention provides Figure 1-8 A trailer arm shown includes a mounting plate 1, an outer wall of which is fixedly connected to a mounting frame 2; Furthermore, a fixed arm 3 is provided inside the mounting frame 2, a telescopic arm 4 is provided inside the fixed arm 3 for sliding, the top and bottom ends of the telescopic arm 4 are fixedly connected to a tow ball 5, a control device is provided on the fixed arm 3, the control device includes: a height clamping mechanism 6, a length clamping mechanism 7 and a synchronous adjustment mechanism 8, the height clamping mechanism 6 is provided inside the fixed arm 3, and is used to locate the height of the fixed arm 3 at multiple points; the length clamping mechanism 7 is provided between the fixed arm 3 and the telescopic arm 4, and is used to locate the extended length of the telescopic arm 4 at multiple points; the synchronous adjustment mechanism 8 is provided at the top of the fixed arm 3, and is used to control The height clamping mechanism 6 and the length clamping mechanism 7 can be controlled. The distance between the telescopic arm 4 and the automobile chassis can be adjusted through the height clamping mechanism 6 and the length clamping mechanism 7, reducing the problem of incompatibility between the distance between the towing ball 5 on the trailer arm and the automobile chassis, thereby improving the adaptability of the device. The setting of the synchronous adjustment mechanism 8 can adjust the height clamping mechanism 6 and the length clamping mechanism 7 at the same time, and one of them can be unlocked for adjustment, or both can be unlocked and adjusted at the same time, or both can be limited synchronously to prevent the possibility of positioning failure during use, which is convenient for use.
[0026] Specifically, the height clamping mechanism 6 includes: a clamping rod 61, a positioning rod 62, a slider 63, a first compression spring 64 and a pull rod 65. The outer wall of the mounting frame 2 is equidistantly provided with a plurality of through holes, and one end of the fixed arm 3 is provided with a clamping groove. The clamping rod 61 passes through the through hole and is slidably connected with the inner cavity of the clamping groove. The cross-sections of the through hole and the clamping groove are both square, and the cross-section of the clamping rod 61 is also square, so that it is easy to insert while preventing the fixed arm 3 from rotating, and it is also convenient for the positioning hole opened on the clamping rod 61. It is inserted with the positioning rod 62; a positioning groove is provided on one side of the inner wall of the clamping groove, and a positioning hole is provided on the outer wall of the clamping rod 61. One end of the positioning rod 62 is slidably inserted and connected with the inner cavity of the positioning groove, and the other end of the positioning rod 62 is slidably inserted and connected with the inner cavity of the positioning hole; sliding grooves are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the positioning groove, and multiple sliders 63 are respectively fixedly connected to the two sides of the positioning rod 62, and the multiple sliders 63 are respectively slidably inserted and connected with the inner cavities of multiple sliding grooves; multiple first compression springs 64 are respectively located inside the multiple sliding grooves. One end of the first compression spring 64 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide groove, and the other end of the first compression spring 64 is fixedly connected to the slider 63. The first compression spring 64 is always in a compressed state, so that the slider 63 can always provide a stable elastic force to the positioning rod 62, so that the positioning rod 62 can always be accommodated in the positioning groove without the influence of external force. The pull rod 65 is fixedly connected to the top end of the positioning rod 62, and a pull groove is provided at the top end of the fixed arm 3.

Under the extrusion of the extrusion block 82, the pull rod 65 can drive the positioning rod 62 to extend into the positioning groove and intersperse with the positioning hole opened by the clamping rod 61. When the extrusion block 82 no longer squeezes the pull rod 65, the positioning rod 62 will be re-accommodated in the interior of the positioning groove under the elastic force of the first compression spring 64, so that the clamping rod 61 can be pulled out to adjust the height of the fixed arm 3.
[0027] The lock body 71 is fixed on the locking cam 76, and the locking cam 76 is fixed on the locking cam 76. The lock body 71 is fixed on the locking cam 76, and the locking cam 76 is fixed on the locking cam 76.

A plurality of extrusion blocks 82 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the turntable 81. The extrusion blocks 82 cooperate with the pull rod 65 and the sliding plate 71. The number of the extrusion blocks 82 is at least three, and two of them are symmetrically arranged, so that the two extrusion blocks 82 can be symmetrically arranged. The block 82 squeezes the pull rod 65 and the sliding plate 71 at the same time, so that the height clamping mechanism 6 and the length clamping mechanism 7 are fixed at the same time and cannot be adjusted. The pull rod 65 and the sliding plate 71 can also be not squeezed at the same time, so that the height clamping mechanism 6 and the length clamping mechanism 7 can be adjusted at the same time. Another squeezing block 82 can also be used to selectively squeeze one of the pull rod 65 and the sliding plate 71, so that one of the height clamping mechanism 6 and the length clamping mechanism 7 can be fixed and the other can be adjusted. The clamping assembly 83 is arranged inside the turntable 81, and is used to fix the position of the squeezing block 82 on the turntable 81 at multiple points.
[0029] Furthermore, the clamping assembly 83 includes: a slide bar 831, a pull plate 832, a clamping block 833 and a third compression spring 834. A groove is provided at the top of the turntable 81, and both ends of the slide bar 831 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove; multiple pull plates 832 are slidably inserted and connected with the slide bar 831, and an annular groove is provided at the top of the fixed arm 3, and multiple pull plates 832 are slidably inserted and connected with the inner cavity of the annular groove; multiple clamping blocks 833 are respectively fixedly connected with multiple pull plates 832, and the inner wall of the annular groove is equidistantly provided with multiple clamping grooves, and the multiple clamping grooves are arranged in a ring shape, and the clamping block 833 is slidably inserted and connected with the inner cavity of the clamping groove; the third compression spring 834 is sleeved on the outside of the slide bar 831, and both ends of the third compression spring 834 are respectively connected to multiple pull plates 8 32 is fixedly connected, and the third compression spring 834 is always in a compressed state, so that a stable elastic force can be always provided to the clamping block 833 through the pulling plate 832, so that the clamping block 833 can be stably clamped with the clamping slot. When it is necessary to select the extrusion situation of the extrusion block 82 on the pull rod 65 and the sliding plate 71, the pulling plate 832 can be pulled to make the clamping block 833 disengage from the clamping slot, so that the turntable 81 can be rotated to make the extrusion block 82 rotate, so that multiple extrusion blocks 82 can squeeze the pull rod 65 and the sliding plate 71 in different situations, and after they are in the appropriate position, the pulling plate 832 is released, so that under the elastic force of the third compression spring 834, the clamping block 833 can be clamped with the clamping slot at the current position, which is convenient for use.
