1. A padlock device for a vehicle comprising:

a bracket having two ends, the bracket for clamping a chassis element of the vehicle;

a rod having two ends, one end having a stop and a counterplate mounted slidably on the rod, the rod passing through the two ends of the bracket and the stop abutting on the two ends of the bracket;

a pin having a rod hole therein, the other end of the rod fitting in the rod hole and coupled securely to the pin;

a lever having a an eccentric head, the pin mounted in the eccentric head and the lever rotatable about the pin;
