[0002] PTO shafts, also known as power take-off shafts, are widely used as transmission shafts in agricultural vehicles, such as lawn mowers, tillers, and rotary tillers. During installation, a plastic dust cover is installed over the PTO shaft to protect it from dust. During use, a safety chain is typically used to restrain the cover, preventing it from rotating with the PTO shaft.

[0003] Existing PTO shaft safety chains typically consist of an S-shaped hook, an elastic fastener, a connecting ring, and a connecting chain. For example, Chinese patent application number CN201921222350.7 discloses a welded PTO shaft safety chain that sequentially connects the S-shaped hook, connecting chain, connecting ring, and elastic fastener. During use, the S-shaped hook and elastic fastener are used to connect the two ends to other parts. While connecting to other parts via the S-shaped hook is convenient, the overall strength is insufficient. The S-shaped hook is easily deformed during actual use and can easily become unhooked during use, requiring improvement. Utility Model Content

[0009] Furthermore, the angle between the first bending portion and the first extending portion is 120°; the angle between the second bending portion and the second extending portion is 120°.

[0010] Furthermore, the connecting chain is formed by a plurality of single chain links that are connected to each other, and the single chain links are elliptical.

[0011] Furthermore, one end of the first bending portion away from the first extending portion is arranged in an arc shape, and one end of the second bending portion away from the second extending portion is arranged in an arc shape.

[0012] After adopting the above structure, the advantages of the utility model are: by improving the end structure connecting the PTO shaft safety chain with other parts into a cross-type hook, the torsion spring of the cross-type hook and the cross-arranged first bending part and second bending part are jointly subjected to force, the strength is increased, the bearing capacity is enhanced, it is not easy to deform or fall off during use, and it is more stable to use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0013] Figure 1 It is a structural diagram of the utility model;

[0014] Figure 2 This is a schematic structural diagram of the cross-type hook of the present utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The following embodiments can enable those skilled in the art to more fully understand the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments.

[0016] like Figure 1 As shown, this specific embodiment adopts the following technical solution: it includes a connecting chain 3, a connecting ring 2 and an elastic fastener 1, and also includes a cross-type hook 4. The elastic fastener 1, the connecting ring 2, the connecting chain 3, and the cross-type hook 4 are connected in sequence.

[0017] like Figure 2As shown, the cross-type hook 4 includes a torsion spring 41, a first extension portion 42, a second extension portion 43, a first bending portion 44 and a second bending portion 45. The connecting chain 3 is formed by a plurality of single chain links 31 that are mutually nested. The single chain link 31 is elliptical. The torsion spring 41 is nested with the single chain link 31 at the end of the connecting chain 3 away from the connecting ring 2. The two ends of the torsion spring 41 are respectively integrated with a first extension portion 42 and a second extension portion 43. The end of the first extension portion 42 is integrally provided with a first bending portion 44, and the end of the second extension portion 43 is integrally provided with a second bending portion 45. The bending directions of the first bending portion 44 and the second bending portion 45 are opposite, and the first bending portion 44 and the second bending portion 45 are cross-arranged.

[0018] An opening is provided between the first bending portion 44 and the second bending portion 45 to facilitate the connection operation.

[0019] The included angle between the first bending portion 44 and the first extending portion 42 is 120-130°. More preferably, the included angle between the first bending portion 44 and the first extending portion 42 is 120°.

[0020] The included angle between the second bending portion 45 and the second extending portion 43 is 120-130°. More preferably, the included angle between the second bending portion 45 and the second extending portion 43 is 120°.

[0021] One end of the first bending portion 44 away from the first extending portion 42 is in an arc shape, and one end of the second bending portion 45 away from the second extending portion 43 is in an arc shape, so that the operator will not be scratched during use, making it safer to use.

[0022] Working principle: The PTO shaft safety chain is formed by an elastic fastener 1, a connecting ring 2, a connecting chain 3, and a cross-type hook 4 which are connected in sequence. When the PTO shaft safety chain is connected to other components, the connection is achieved through the elastic fasteners 1 at both ends and the cross-type hook 4.
