[0067] The lock hook frame 2 is also provided with an inclined groove 23, the inclined groove 23 is connected with the receiving groove 21, and the inclined groove 23 is recessed in a direction away from the receiving groove 21;
[0068] A spring 4 and a rolling ball 5 in contact with the spring 4 are arranged in the inclined groove 23 . The spring 4 is a compression spring. The rolling ball 5 partially extends out of the inclined groove 23 under the support of the spring 4 and contacts the stop groove 31 of the adjusting component 3 .
[0069] In the utility model, by setting a plurality of the stop grooves 31, when the adjusting component 3 is rotated, each time it is rotated a certain angle (causing the locking hook 1 to move forward or backward a certain distance), the ball 5 moves to the next stop groove 31, so that the adjustment becomes stepped, and the rotation process can be understood according to the falling vibration or sound feedback of the ball.

[0072] In the utility model, the above-mentioned setting of fixing the spring can prevent the rolling ball 5 and the spring 4 from falling off, and the spring 4 and the inclined groove 23 from falling off during the rotation process, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the mechanism function.
[0073] In a specific implementation of this embodiment, the portion of the rolling ball 5 extending out of the inclined groove 23 and abutting against the stop groove 31 accounts for less than one-half of the total volume, and the portion of the rolling ball 5 extending out of the inclined groove 23 and abutting against the stop groove 31 accounts for more than one-fifth of the total volume. Preferably, the portion of the rolling ball 5 extending out of the inclined groove 23 and abutting against the stop groove 31 accounts for one-quarter of the total volume.
[0074] It can be understood that when the portion of the ball 5 extending out of the inclined groove 23 accounts for one quarter of the total volume of the ball 5 , the concave volume of the stop groove 31 also accounts for one quarter of the total volume of the ball 5 .
[0075] Please refer to the attached Figure 5 In a specific implementation of the present embodiment, the blocking portion 6 is arranged between the inclined groove 23 and the receiving groove 21, and the side of the blocking portion 6 close to the inclined groove 23 is an arc surface, and the arc surface is in contact with the surface of the rolling ball 5; the blocking portion 6 gradually increases its own cross-sectional area along the axis of the inclined groove 23 in a direction away from the receiving groove 21 toward the receiving groove 21, so as to prevent the rolling ball 5 from falling into the receiving groove 21.
[0076] When the adjusting component 3 is rotated, the ball 5 breaks away from the original stop groove 31 and moves toward the direction close to the inclined groove 23. The ball 5 completely enters the inclined groove 23, and the compression spring is further compressed. When the adjusting component 3 is rotated by a certain angle, the ball 5 moves away from the inclined groove 23 under the action of the spring 4, and the ball 5 extends out of the inclined groove 23 again and abuts against another stop groove 31.
[0077] In a specific implementation of this embodiment, six stop grooves 31 are provided on the adjusting component 3, any two adjacent stop grooves 31 among the six stop grooves 31 are spaced 60° apart, at least one inclined groove 23 is provided, and at least one corresponding spring 4 and ball 5 are also provided.

[0079] In the present invention, the setting of the annular groove 7 provides a guiding function for the adjustment component 3 to rotate relative to the ball 5, thereby ensuring the normal rotation of the adjustment component 3.
[0080] The present application provides a lock hook assembly with adjustable stroke. When assembled and used: the spring 4 and the ball 5 are installed in the inclined groove 23, the adjusting component 3 is installed in the receiving groove 21, and the spring 4 is against the stop groove 31 of the adjusting component 3; the extension portion 12 of the lock hook 1 is extended into the receiving groove 21 and threadedly connected with the adjusting component 3 placed in the receiving groove 21, and the protrusion 13 is installed on the extension portion 12 to realize the assembly of the lock hook assembly; when in use, the adjusting component 3 is rotated manually or with a pin to control the change of the stroke of the lock hook assembly, thereby completing the preload adjustment of the lock hook assembly.
