[0002] The trailer hook is an important emergency rescue device on the car, which is generally installed on the bumper of the car; when the car is in trouble, it is often necessary to use other vehicles to drag the trailer hook for towing operations. There are two ways to install the trailer hook and the bumper: a welded structure and a screwed structure; the welded structure refers to welding the trailer hook directly to the bumper, and the screwed structure refers to welding the trailer hook sleeve with an internal thread to the bumper, and the trailer hook has an external thread to connect to the trailer hook sleeve. The structure of the trailer hook includes a shaft and a buckle part. The buckle part is a round bar with a diameter smaller than the shaft, which is bent and formed, and then connected to the end of the shaft away from the thread by welding. The existing trailer hook is manually welded and clamped by a simple quick-clamp fixture, but the existing method has high labor intensity for workers, low welding efficiency, poor positioning accuracy, and poor consistency of welded trailer hooks.
