Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to the technical field of trailer auxiliary means, especially a trailer connector sleeve lock.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Trailers are useful items when handling large items. Various trailers are manufactured for various tractors. Unfortunately, trailers cannot be protected from theft. If left unattended and without security, a thief need only have the appropriate vehicle and hitch to secure the trailer to the vehicle and steal it. Since the trailer is typically moved by the vehicle, the lock for the trailer typically prevents the trailer from being connected to other vehicles.

The hook structure of a gooseneck trailer typically consists of an attachment in the throat. When a trailer needs to be attached to a vehicle with a flat bed, the trailer connector needs to be positioned above the flat bed, and the traction ball of the vehicle needs to be connected to the interface at the bottom of the connector. Gooseneck trailers are usually bulky, so preventing a thief from connecting the traction ball to the trailer connector of the trailer on our part is an important means of theft protection. The trailer lock disclosed by the prior art has the defects of large volume, poor adaptability and difficulty in installation. Moreover, the lock tongue is mostly exposed outside and is easily cut by others, so that the effect of protecting the trailer from being stolen cannot be achieved.

The object of the present invention is to provide a trailer connector sleeve lock. The lock cover and the lock hole plate are spliced into a sleeve lock structure, and then the lock tongue piece is clamped in the sleeve lock structure, the lock tongue in the lock tongue piece extends out of the lock hole plate, and then the trailer is locked in such a manner that the lock tongue is fixed by an additional lock, and the installation is convenient. The four sides of the lock tongue piece are completely covered by the lock cover, and the lock tongue is inserted into the lock hole plate, so that a thief cannot damage the sleeve lock by cutting the lock tongue. The damage difficulty is high, the time-consuming is long, and the protection effect is good.

In order to realize the purpose of the present invention, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
