A mechanical arrangement and a method for a trailer

A mechanical arrangement for a trailer, the mechanical arrangement comprising a surface portion, the mechanical arrangement being configurable in either: a stowed configuration wherein the surface portion is located on top of the trailer; or a deployed configuration wherein the surface portion lies adjacent to the ground; the mechanical arrangement further comprising: a telescopic height adjuster configurable in either: a stowed position when the mechanical arrangement is in the stowed configuration; or a deployed position when the mechanical arrangement is in the deployed configuration. In light of the advantages offered by conventional tent trailers, tent trailers in the collapsed or stowed configuration are typically at an elevated position that forms an unstable platform for the transportation of vehicles or people. The telescopic height adjuster provides the end user with a way to stabilize the trailer when in the deployed position. Also, as the height adjuster itself is pivotably mounted on the trailer, it mitigates any inconvenience manually mounting the device as it will always be in the appropriate position when deployed.
