ABSTRACT:
A trailer hitch coupling anti-theft lock is formed by a platen underlying the ball socket recess of a hitch coupling and having an elongated lock pin projecting vertically through the platen and secured at its innermost end with a flange for impinging a component of the hitch coupling between the flange and the platen. A hollow housing surrounding a shackle-type padlock is provided with an aperture in its wall for slidably receiving the outwardly projecting end portion of the lockpin and biasing the housing wall forming the aperture into an annular groove in the lockpin adjacent the outer surface of the platen in response to inward movement of the lock body relative to its shackle.
