[0003] In the related art, the semi-trailer is driven on an uneven road surface, which causes the semi-trailer to shake during driving. During the shaking of the semi-trailer, the trailer hook will also shake with the semi-trailer, which is very likely to cause the hook to be unhooked, which brings great potential safety hazards to driving safety. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a trailer hook for a semi-trailer to solve the technical problem in the related art that the trailer hook may shake due to the bumps of the semi-trailer, thus being easily unhooked.
[0005] In order to achieve the above objectives, the present application provides the following technical solutions:
[0006] A semi-trailer hook, comprising:
[0007] A bracket, the bracket comprising a fixed end and a clamp end, the clamp end comprising an upper clamp part and a lower clamp part;

[0009] An L-shaped abutment plate is slidably disposed on the upper surface of the lower jaw portion, and a horizontal section of the L-shaped abutment plate is located in the groove; wherein,
[0010] When the horizontal section of the L-shaped abutment plate contacts the lateral wall of the groove, the vertical section of the L-shaped abutment plate contacts the outer wall of the locking rod, and the top end of the locking rod contacts the lower surface of the upper clamp.
[0011] In some possible implementations, the upper surface of the lower jaw portion is provided with a through hole for use with the locking rod, and a sliding groove for sliding with the L-shaped abutment plate, and the L-shaped abutment plate is slidably arranged on the upper surface of the lower jaw portion through the sliding groove.
[0012] In some possible implementations, a spring is disposed in the slide groove, one end of the spring abuts against a groove wall of the slide groove, and the other end of the spring is connected to the L-shaped abutment plate.
[0013] In some possible implementations, elastic rubber sheets are flexibly connected to two groove wall edges in the length direction of the slide groove, and the elastic rubber sheets are used to close the groove opening of the slide groove.
[0014] In some possible implementations, a sphere is disposed at the top end of the locking rod, and a spherical groove matching the sphere is disposed on the lower surface of the upper clamp portion.
[0015] In some possible implementations, the length of the vertical section of the L-shaped abutment plate is equal to the length of the locking rod.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0024] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the semi-trailer hook provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a bracket 100, a locking rod 300 and an L-shaped abutment plate 400. The bracket 100 includes a fixed end 110 and a clamp end 120. The fixed end 110 of the bracket 100 is fixedly connected to the active vehicle, and the clamp end 120 of the bracket 100 is used to connect to the towed vehicle. The clamp end 120 also includes an upper clamp portion 121 and a lower clamp portion 122. There is a notch between the upper clamp portion 121 and the lower clamp portion 122. The cross-sectional diagram of the upper clamp portion 121 and the lower clamp portion 122 is C-shaped.
[0025] The locking rod 300 is a structure for locking the jaw end 120. Specifically, the locking rod 300 is threadedly connected to the lower jaw portion 122. The locking rod 300 penetrates the lower jaw portion 122 along the thickness direction and abuts against the upper surface of the upper jaw portion 121, thereby closing the gap between the upper jaw portion 121 and the lower jaw portion 122.
[0026] In this embodiment, a groove 310 is provided on the outer wall of the locking rod 300, and the groove 310 is facing the direction of the bracket 100. The upper end groove wall of the groove 310 is also provided with a continuous inclined sliding surface 320. The inclined sliding surface 320 and the groove 310 are interconnected, and the angle between the inclined sliding surface 320 and the horizontal plane is an acute angle.
[0027] The L-shaped abutment plate 400 is slidably disposed on the upper surface of the lower jaw portion 122. Specifically, the upper surface of the lower jaw portion 122 is provided with a through hole 500 used in conjunction with the locking rod 300, and the upper surface of the lower jaw portion 122 is also provided with a slide groove 600. The L-shaped abutment plate 400 is slidably disposed on the upper surface of the lower jaw portion 122 through the slide groove 600. When the horizontal surface of the L-shaped abutment plate 400 contacts the lateral wall surface of the groove 310, the vertical section of the L-shaped abutment plate 400 abuts against the outer wall surface of the locking rod 300, and enables the top end of the locking rod 300 to abut against the lower surface of the upper jaw portion 121. Preferably, the length of the vertical section of the L-shaped abutment plate 400 is equal to the length of the locking rod 300.
[0028] In the semi-trailer hook provided in the embodiment of the present application, the iron ring of the towing rope or other devices are buckled on the clamp end 120 of the trailer hook, and then the locking rod 300 is passed through the lower clamp part 122 of the clamp end 120 and abutted against the upper clamp part 121. When actually used, the iron ring of the trailer hook abuts against the vertical section of the L-shaped abutment plate 400 in the clamp end 120, and because the horizontal section of the L-shaped abutment plate 400 is in contact with the groove 310 of the locking rod 300, the L-shaped abutment plate 400 can always abut against the inclined sliding surface 320 of the groove 310 under the action of external force, so as to realize the function of tightly abutting the locking rod 300 against the upper clamp part 121. The above structural design can effectively reduce the probability of unhooking during driving.
[0029] In some embodiments, a spiral spring is further disposed in the slide groove 600, one end of the spiral spring abuts against the groove wall of the slide groove 600, and the other end of the spiral spring abuts against the L-shaped abutment. This ensures that when there is no external force acting on the L-shaped abutment plate 400, the L-shaped abutment plate 400 will return to its initial position under the action of the spring.
[0030] In some embodiments, both groove walls of the slide groove 600 along the length direction are flexibly connected with elastic rubber sheets 700, and the elastic rubber sheets 700 can close the notch of the slide groove 600, and the elastic rubber sheets 700 themselves are relatively soft. In actual use, the elastic rubber sheets 700 close the notch, and when the L-shaped abutment plate 400 passes through the elastic rubber sheets 700, it can pass through the gap between the two, so that the sliding structure of the L-shaped abutment plate 400 can be protected and dust can be prevented from falling into the slide groove 600, and the actual use can be not affected.
[0031] In some embodiments, a sphere 800 is disposed at the top of the locking rod 300, and correspondingly, the lower surface of the upper clamp portion 121 has a spherical groove 900 used in conjunction with the sphere 800. When the sphere 800 is located inside the spherical groove 900, the locking effect of the trailer hook can be further improved.
