DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0021] The present application embodiment discloses a trailer hitch, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , including a mounting seat 1, a connecting plate 2 and a latch 3, wherein the mounting seat 1 and the connecting plate 2 are respectively welded on the adjacent side walls of the two trailers. The latch 3 includes two parallel first straight rods 31 and second straight rods 32, and a connecting rod 33 is integrally fixed between the first straight rod 31 and the second straight rod 32. A mounting groove 11 having an inner diameter larger than that of the second straight rod 32 is provided at the bottom of the mounting seat 1, and two first through holes and second through holes having inner diameters respectively adapted to the first straight rod 31 and the second straight rod 32 are provided on the mounting seat 1. The first straight rod 31 and the second straight rod 32 are respectively vertically slidably inserted in the first through hole and the second through hole, and the connecting rod 33 is located above the mounting seat 1. A connecting hole having an inner diameter larger than that of the first straight rod 31 is provided on the connecting plate 2, and the first straight rod 31 also vertically passes through the connecting hole when passing through the first through hole. The second straight rod 32 passes into the mounting groove 11, and a connecting member for driving the latch 3 to press down against the mounting seat 1 is provided in the mounting groove 11.
[0022] In the embodiment of the present application, a trailer is moved so that the connection hole of the connecting plate 2 on the trailer is vertically aligned with the first through hole of the mounting seat 1 on the adjacent trailer, and the first straight rod 31 and the second straight rod 32 on the latch 3 are vertically inserted downward into the corresponding first through hole and the second through hole, so that the first straight rod 31 can be inserted into the connecting hole while passing through the first through hole, thereby realizing the connection of the two adjacent trailers. The second straight rod 32 can be pulled down by the connecting member, so that the latch 3 is pressed down as a whole to abut against the mounting seat 1, preventing the latch 3 from loosening during the transportation of the two trailers, thereby improving the stability of the hanger during transportation. In addition, the connecting member is arranged in the mounting groove 11, and the mounting groove 11 is opened at the bottom of the mounting seat 1, so as to prevent the connecting member from being directly wetted by rainwater, thereby reducing the speed of its own corrosion, and having the effect of improving the service life of the overall hanger.
[0023] Specifically, the connecting member includes a spring 4, and the end of the second straight rod 32 located in the mounting groove 11 is threadedly connected with a stopper 41 whose diameter is adapted to the mounting groove 11, and the stopper 41 is slidably connected in the mounting groove 11. The spring 4 is sleeved on the second straight rod 32 and is located between the stopper 41 and the inner bottom wall of the mounting groove 11, and the two ends of the spring 4 are respectively abutted against the stopper 41 and the inner bottom wall of the mounting groove 11.
[0024] In the embodiment of the present application, after the second straight rod 32 passes through the mounting groove 11, the spring 4 is placed into the mounting groove 11 from the bottom of the mounting seat 1, and then the second straight rod 32 is sleeved, and then the stopper 41 is threadedly connected to the end of the second straight rod 32 and tightened, so that the spring 4 can be compressed, so that the two ends of the spring 4 are respectively abutted against the stopper 41 and the inner bottom wall of the mounting groove 11, thereby achieving the purpose of driving the latch 3 to press down and abut against the mounting seat 1. When the two connected trailers need to be untied, only the latch 3 needs to be manually pulled up, and the first straight rod 31 and the second straight rod 32 on the latch 3 are lifted, so that one of the trailers can be moved to separate the connecting plate 2 from the mounting seat 1. Since the stopper 41 is slidably connected in the mounting groove 11, when the latch 3 moves up to compress the spring 4 to the maximum extent, the latch 3 can be restricted from continuing to move upward, and the latch 3 can be prevented from slipping out of the mounting seat 1. When the latch 3 is released, under the elastic force of the spring 4, the latch 3 can be abutted downward on the mounting seat 1 again, which has the advantage of convenient operation.
[0025] In addition, since the spring 4 is located in the installation groove 11 and the stopper 41 is slidably connected in the installation groove 11, the spring 4 will not be directly exposed to the air, reducing the risk of corrosion of the spring 4, thereby increasing the service life of the overall hanger.
[0026] In order to facilitate the operator to grasp the latch 3 , the connecting rod 33 is bent to form an arched handle 331 .
[0027] Reference Figure 3 A first mounting tube 12 whose inner diameter matches the first straight rod 31 is welded on the top of the mounting seat 1 above the first through hole. The first straight rod 31 is inserted into the first mounting tube 12. A slide groove 121 is vertically opened on the top of the first mounting tube 12 to make way for the connecting rod 33. An end cap 5 whose diameter is larger than the inner diameter of the first mounting tube 12 is welded on the end of the first straight rod 31 away from the connecting plate 2. The distance from the end cap 5 to the connecting rod 33 is smaller than the length of the slide groove 121.
[0028] When the spring 4 drives the pin 3 to press down the mounting seat 1, the end cover 5 abuts against the top of the first mounting tube 12. Since the distance from the end cover 5 to the connecting rod 33 is less than the length of the slide groove 121, the connecting rod 33 is located above the inner bottom wall of the slide groove 121 at this time, avoiding damage caused by the connecting parts of the connecting rod 33 and the two straight rods abutting against the edges of the first through hole and the second through hole respectively, thereby further improving the service life of the hanger.
[0029] Furthermore, a second mounting tube 13 is vertically welded above the second through hole at the top of the mounting seat 1, an annular groove is provided in the second mounting tube 13, a sealing ring 6 is embedded in the groove, and the second straight rod 32 is passed through the second mounting tube 13 and is in frictional contact with the inner wall of the sealing ring 6. The sealing ring 6 can further improve the sealing between the second straight rod 32 and the second mounting tube 13, preventing rainwater from directly flowing into the mounting groove 11 from the top of the mounting seat 1 and corroding the spring 4, thereby improving the service life of the hanger.
[0030] The implementation principle of a trailer hook in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: move a trailer so that the connection hole of the connecting plate 2 on the trailer is vertically aligned with the first through hole of the mounting seat 1 on the adjacent trailer, and vertically insert the first straight rod 31 and the second straight rod 32 on the latch 3 into the corresponding first through hole and the second through hole, so that the first straight rod 31 can be inserted into the connecting hole while passing through the first through hole, thereby realizing the connection of the two adjacent trailers. The second straight rod 32 can be pulled down by the connecting member, so that the latch 3 is pressed down as a whole to abut against the mounting seat 1, preventing the latch 3 from loosening during the transportation of the two trailers, thereby improving the stability of the hook during transportation. In addition, the connecting member is arranged in the mounting groove 11, and the mounting groove 11 is opened at the bottom of the mounting seat 1, so as to prevent the connecting member from being directly wetted by rainwater, thereby reducing the speed of its own corrosion, which has the effect of improving the service life of the hook.
