Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of trailer devices, in particular to a trailer rope with adjustable length. Background Art
[0002] A tow rope is a tool used to connect a vehicle and a trailer, usually made of soft but strong materials such as nylon, polyester, etc. Its function is to provide connection and support when the vehicle needs to be towed or pulled so that the vehicle can be moved safely. A tow rope usually has a certain load-bearing capacity and durability to ensure that no unexpected situations occur during the towing process. It is one of the important tools in car rescue, tow truck transportation, and other situations where the vehicle needs to be moved.
[0003] The existing patent (publication number: CN206383761U) discloses a safety towing rope, which has at least the following defects during use:
[0004] 1. The length of existing equipment cannot be adjusted. Limited usage scenarios: Fixed-length towing ropes may not be suitable for all towing scenarios, especially when towing between vehicles of different sizes or locations, the length may be insufficient or too long.
[0005] Inflexible: A fixed-length tow rope may cause inconvenience in use because the length cannot be adjusted according to actual conditions, and additional accessories or tools may be required to solve the problem of length mismatch.
[0006] Inconvenient to store and carry: A fixed-length tow rope may take up too much space when stored and carried, especially when the tow rope needs to be carried while the vehicle is moving but the length is too long, which will cause inconvenience.
[0007] Usage restrictions: In some cases, the length of the tow rope needs to be flexibly adjusted, such as when towing in a narrow space or complex terrain. A fixed-length tow rope may limit the flexibility and safety of the operation. Therefore, an adjustable-length tow rope is required.
[0008] 2. Existing equipment has limited functions. Limited use: The tow rope is limited to towing functions and cannot be used for other emergency or rescue tasks. In the event of other types of vehicle problems or emergency situations, additional tools or equipment may be needed to solve the problem.
[0009] Dependence on other accessories: Tow ropes usually need to be used in conjunction with accessories such as the vehicle's anchor points or tow hooks. If the vehicle is not equipped with the corresponding anchor points or tow hooks, the tow rope may not function properly.
[0010] Lack of versatility: The main function of a tow rope is to connect and tow vehicles, but it may not provide more functions in other situations, such as fastening items, pulling obstacles, etc.
[0011] Not suitable for special conditions: In bad weather conditions or complex terrain, the effectiveness of the tow rope may be limited. For example, in muddy, rough terrain, the tow rope may not provide enough traction. So a tow rope with rich functions is needed.
[0012] 3. Existing equipment requires manual operation. Therefore, a tow rope that can be remotely automated is needed. Strength limitation: Manually operating a tow rope may require greater strength and physical strength, especially when towing a heavy or difficult vehicle. This may cause difficulties for individuals who do not have sufficient strength or physical strength.
[0013] Operational complexity: Manually operating a tow rope may require certain skills and experience to ensure correct connection and safe towing. Incorrect operation may cause an accident or damage to the vehicle.
[0014] Time and efficiency: Manually operating a tow rope may require more time and effort to complete the task, especially in an emergency. In contrast, an automatic or mechanized towing tool may be faster and more efficient.
[0015] Safety risks: Manually operating the tow rope poses certain safety risks when connecting and disconnecting. Incorrect operation or improper use may cause the rope to detach, injuring people or damaging the vehicle.
[0016] Dependence on others: Manually operating a tow rope may require the cooperation of more than one person, especially when angle adjustments or obstacles need to be avoided. This may increase the degree of dependence on others. Utility Model Content

This can help avoid collisions, scratches or other damage.
[0033] Convenience: The tow rope with measurable distance can directly display the distance of the trailer, without the need for additional measuring tools or estimation. This saves time and energy and improves the convenience of operation.
[0034] Safety: By accurately measuring the distance, the towing process can ensure that the appropriate spacing between vehicles is maintained to avoid pulling too tight or too loose. This helps reduce the risk of accidents and protect the safety of vehicles and passengers.
[0035] Visualization: Tow ropes that can measure distance usually have visual indicators, such as scale lines or digital displays. This allows operators to clearly understand the actual distance of the trailer and better control the towing process.
[0036] Integrated design: Some tow ropes that can measure distance may have an integrated design, that is, the distance scale is directly marked on the rope. This design is simpler, more convenient, and not easy to lose or damage.
[0037] 3. The utility model realizes the remote automatic control function through the Bluetooth module and the control module. Convenience: The remote control function allows the operator to control the towing rope at a long distance without having to approach the vehicle in person. This is especially convenient for situations where the position or direction needs to be frequently adjusted during towing work.
[0038] Safety: In some special cases, such as in bad weather, heavy traffic or dangerous environments, remote control can help operators avoid exposure to danger and protect their safety.
[0039] Precision: Remote control technology usually has a high degree of precision, which can accurately control the movement and position of the tow rope to avoid unnecessary collisions or damage.
[0040] Adaptability: The remote control function allows the tow rope to be used in a variety of different environments and situations, including narrow spaces, complex terrain or other restrictive conditions.
[0041] Versatility: In addition to towing, some remote control tow ropes may have other functions, such as automatic winding, adjusting length or carrying weight, etc. This increases their practicality and value.
[0042] Improve efficiency: Through remote control, operators can complete towing tasks more quickly, reducing the time and labor costs of manual operations. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
