## Abstract

Provided is a vehicle wheel stopper. The vehicle wheel stopper includes a bracket, clamping jaws and a telescoping rod assembly. The clamping jaws include a first clamping jaw and a second clamping jaw. Both the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw are pivotally connected to the bracket. The telescoping rod assembly includes a telescoping rod set and a gear set. The gear set drives the telescoping rod set to rotate around an axis of the telescoping rod set, and the telescoping rod set simultaneously drives the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw so that the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw separately have a first state of simultaneously clamping the two spaced wheels and a second state of simultaneously loosening the two spaced wheels. In this device, the wrench rotates the gear set within a range of 360° to further drive the support rod.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A vehicle wheel stopper, wherein two wheels on one side of a vehicle are spaced from each other, the vehicle wheel stopper comprising:
a bracket;
clamping jaws, comprising a first clamping jaw and a second clamping jaw, wherein both the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw are pivotally connected to the bracket; and
a telescoping rod assembly, which comprises a telescoping rod set and a gear set, wherein the telescoping rod assembly comprises a telescoping rod and a support rod, wherein the gear set is configured to drive the telescoping rod set to rotate around an axis of the telescoping rod set, and the telescoping rod set is configured to simultaneously drive the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw such that the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw separately have a first state of simultaneously clamping the two spaced wheels and a second state of simultaneously loosening the two spaced wheels, and wherein the gear set comprises a first bevel gear and a second bevel gear, wherein the support rod is fixedly connected to the first bevel gear, the second bevel gear is meshed with the first bevel gear, and the second bevel gear is rotatably connected to the bracket, and wherein the second bevel gear is configured to rotate around an axis of the second bevel gear so as to drive the first bevel gear to rotate around an axis of the first bevel gear to drive the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw to switch between the first state and the second state.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The vehicle wheel stopper of claim 1, wherein the gear set is configured to drive the support rod to rotate around an axis of the support rod, and wherein the support rod is configured to drive the telescoping rod to simultaneously move in a direction facing away from the support rod or in a direction facing toward the support rod, and wherein the telescoping rod is configured to drive the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw to switch between the first state and the second state.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The vehicle wheel stopper of claim 2, wherein the support rod is configured to rotate around the axis of the support rod such that the first telescoping rod and the second telescoping rod move simultaneously in the direction facing away from the support rod or in the direction facing toward the support rod, and wherein the first telescoping rod and the second telescoping rod are configured to simultaneously drive the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw to switch between the first state and the second state.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The vehicle wheel stopper of claim 3, wherein both ends of the support rod are respectively provided with a threaded hole, wherein one end of the first telescoping rod is screwed with one end of the support rod, and wherein one end of the second telescoping rod is screwed with another end of the support rod.

### Claim 5 (depends on 3)

The vehicle wheel stopper of claim 3, wherein the first clamping jaw comprises a pair of first clamping plates, the second clamping jaw comprises a pair of second clamping plates, and ends on one side of the pair of first clamping plates and ends on one side of the pair of second clamping plates are both pivotally connected to the bracket.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The vehicle wheel stopper of claim 5, wherein the telescoping rod set further comprises a pair of first pulling arms and a pair of second pulling arms, wherein ends on one side of the pair of the first pulling arms are pivotally connected to the pair of the first clamping plates, respectively, wherein ends on another side of the pair of first pulling arms are pivotally connected to the first telescoping rod and the second telescoping rod, respectively, wherein ends on one side of the pair of second pulling arms are pivotally connected to the pair of second clamping plates, respectively, and wherein ends on another side of the pair of second pulling arms are pivotally connected to the first telescoping rod and the second telescoping rod, respectively.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The vehicle wheel stopper of claim 6, wherein the vehicle wheel stopper is symmetrically disposed along an axis of the telescoping rod.

### Claim 8 (depends on 5)

The vehicle wheel stopper of claim 5, wherein ends on another side of the pair of first clamping plates and ends on another side of the pair of second clamping plates are pivotally connected to support plates, and the support plates abut against the wheels.

### Claim 9 (depends on 2)

The vehicle wheel stopper of claim 2, wherein the bracket is provided with a mounting bin, the gear set is disposed in the mounting bin, the support rod penetrates through the mounting bin, the support rod is fixedly provided with a limiting member, and the limiting member is configured to limit a relative position between the bracket and the support rod.
