DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The present invention will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown. The present invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure is thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art. Like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout.

[0026] For an intuitive and complete understanding of the technical solution of the present invention, the following non-limiting features will now be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the present invention.

[0027] As shown in FIGS. 1-8, a trailer lock includes a lock bar 100 and a cylinder 200 connected with the lock bar 100, wherein the cylinder 200 includes an outer casing 1, a plug casing 2 mounted at a front end of the outer casing 1 and a plug 3 provided in a middle of the plug casing 2, the outer casing 1 is integrally formed, the cylinder 200 further includes a bolt casing 4 fixed in the outer casing 1 and a cam 5 accommodated in the bolt casing 4 and connected with the plug 3, a telescopic core 6 is provided in the cam 5, telescopic bolts 7 for fixing the lock bar 100 are provided at two sides of the bolt casing 4, the bolt 7 has a front end connected with a rear end of the cam 5, and the lock bar 100 has a front end provided with a press head 8 having an annular neck 81 where the bolt 7 is clamped.

[0028] Through holes 9 where the bolt 7 is clamped are provided at two sides of a rear end of the bolt casing 4, the bolt 7 is mounted into the bolt casing 4 along the through hole 9, a bump 71 connected with the cam 5 is provided at an outer side of the front end of the bolt 7, and a first spring 10 is provided between the bolt 7 and the outer casing 1. An accommodating hole 16 is provided at an outer side of the bolt 7, and the first spring 10 extends into the accommodating hole 16 and has an outer end pressed against an inner wall of the outer casing 1. When pressed by the press head 8, the bolt 7 is moved outwards, and the first spring 10 is compressed.

[0029] The cam 5 has a front end provided with an insertion hole 11 where a rear end of the plug 3 is inserted, an accommodating groove 12 is formed at the rear end of the cam 5, a second spring 13 is mounted in the accommodating groove 12 and has a rear end connected with the telescopic core 6, a rotating block 51, provided at the rear end of the cam 5, is abutted against an inner side of the bump 71, the rotating block 51 is oval, and an arc convex surface 711 is provided at the inner side of the bump 71. When the plug 3 is not rotated using a key, a side wall of the rotating block 51 in a short axis direction thereof comes into contact with the bump 71 at the front end of the bolt 7 without pressing the bump 71, and when the rotating block 51 is rotated, the bump 71 is pressed by a side wall of the rotating block 51 in a long axis direction thereof, the bolt 7 is moved outwards, and the first spring 10 is compressed.

[0030] A channel 14 is formed between the two bolts 7 and has a large rear-end opening and a small front-end opening. That is, the bolt 7 has an oblique inner wall. A through hole 15 is provided at a rear end of the outer casing 1, and the press head 8 is inserted into the channel 14 to come into contact with the inner wall of the bolt 7 and gradually press the bolt 7 outwards. The press head 8 sequentially penetrates through the through hole 15 and the channel 14, pushes the bolt 7 away to extend into the accommodating groove 12 of the cam 5, and is then pressed against the telescopic core 6, and after the press head 8 is separated from the bolt 7, the bolt 7 is subjected to an elastic force of the first spring 10, and an inner end of the bolt 7 is clamped into the neck 81 of the press head 8.

[0031] During assembly, the press head 8 at the front end of the lock bar 100 is inserted into the outer casing 1 directly, and pushes the bolt 7 away to extend into the cam 5 and press the telescopic core 6, the second spring 13 is compressed, the inner end of the bolt 7 is clamped into the neck 81 of the press head 8 by the elastic force of the first spring 10 at the moment when the press head 8 is separated from the bolt 7, and the lock bar 100 is fixed completely, as shown in FIG. 1.

[0032] During disassembly, the key is inserted into the plug 3, the plug 3 is rotated to drive the cam 5 to rotate, the bolt 7 is pressed to move outwards by the rotating block 51 at the rear end of the cam 5 after rotation, and separated from the neck 81, the telescopic core 6 is subjected to an elastic force of the second spring 13 to push the press head 8 backwards, the lock bar 100 is pushed backwards, as shown in FIG. 2, and then the lock bar 100 may be pulled out.

[0033] Certainly, the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Simple modifications and equivalent structural changes to the contents of the specification and drawings of the present invention should also be included within the scope of the present invention.
