  • Patent number: 9701169
    Abstract: A unique adjustable trailer-locking system comprises a locking ball, a lock, a locking pin, a key, and first, second, third, and fourth size-adjusting caps. The locking ball has a through hole. Each of the first, second, third, and fourth size-adjusting caps has a dome shape and a hollow shaft attached to its center. Each of the hollow shafts can be inserted into the through hole or another hollow shaft to assemble, disassemble, and switch the size of the locking ball, to fit inside a hitch-ball receiver of one of standardized sizes to eliminate all the gaps therebetween, to prevent a crowbar from being inserted therebetween to pry the locking ball off. The locking pin is for being inserted through a hitch-ball-receiver lever and through the lock. The key is for turning the lock to secure the locking pin and the hitch-ball-receiver lever.
