This utility model discloses a
leg extension and retraction mechanism for a feed trailer, including a trailer body and a tow frame located at the front end of the trailer body. The lower end of the tow frame is equipped with the
leg extension and retraction mechanism, which includes a fixing and locking component on the tow frame, a
ratchet rotating head rotatably mounted on the fixing and locking component,
ratchet teeth on the tow frame that engage with the
ratchet rotating head, and a hydraulic leg located at the lower end of the ratchet rotating head. This utility model features a reasonable structural design. By incorporating the fixing and locking component, ratchet rotating head, ratchet teeth, and hydraulic leg into the
leg extension and retraction mechanism, it achieves efficient and reliable extension and retraction locking of the outriggers. It is easy to operate and adaptable to different operating scenarios. The locking rod engages with the locking hole on the ratchet rotating head, enhancing stability during extension; the engaging teeth on the ratchet rotating head engage with the ratchet teeth, making the retraction locking more secure.
