[0003] In traditional technology, when the lawn mower is in use, a group of rotating blades are installed at the bottom to cut the roots of weeds. When turning is required, the operator needs to forcibly control the handle and forcibly shift the drive wheel in place to make the lawn mower turn around. This operation is convenient and quick, but different operators have different strengths when controlling the handle. Forcibly shifting it is time-consuming and labor-intensive. At the same time, if the grass surface is uneven, it will be more laborious to control the steering of the lawn mower by using the handle.

[0004] Therefore, it is particularly important to improve the universal wheel structure of the existing lawn mower, design a new universal wheel structure of the lawn mower to solve the above technical defects, and improve the practicality of the universal wheel structure of the overall lawn mower.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0022] Example:

[0023] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0024] A universal wheel structure of a lawn mower, comprising a lawn mower 1, a driving wheel 2 is symmetrically rotatably connected to the bottom of the lawn mower 1, a handle 3 is rotatably connected to the top of the lawn mower 1, and a steering assembly 4 is installed at the bottom of the front end of the lawn mower 1;

[0025] The steering assembly 4 is used to rotate the lawn mower 1 in any direction when it moves.

[0026] For further information, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4In this embodiment, the steering assembly 4 includes a fixed plate 401, a rotating ring 402, a driven gear 403, a driving gear 404, a wheel 405 and a rotating frame 406. The fixed plate 401 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the front end of the lawn mower 1, the rotating ring 402 is rotatably connected to the inside of the fixed plate 401, the driven gear 403 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating ring 402, the driving gear 404 is meshed and connected to the outside of the driven gear 403, the wheel 405 is rotatably connected to the inside of the rotating ring 402, and the rotating frame 406 is rotatably connected to the outside of the wheel 405. When the lawn mower 1 is in use, a set of rotating blades are installed at the bottom thereof. The blade can be used to cut the roots of weeds. However, when turning is required, the operator needs to forcibly control the handle 3 and forcibly offset the driving wheel 2 in place, so that the lawn mower 1 turns around, which is very laborious. By connecting the bottom of the driving gear 404 with the output end of the motor, the driving gear 404 is meshed with the driven gear 403, so that the driven gear 403 rotates, thereby driving the rotating ring 402 to rotate, so that the rotating frame 406 rotates inside the rotating ring 402, and the wheel 405 is offset, thereby realizing rotation at any angle, which greatly improves convenience.

[0027] For further information, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the inner wall of the rotating ring 402 is symmetrically provided with sliding grooves 407, and the outer side of the wheel 405 is provided with anti-skid grooves, which are evenly spaced. Through the design of the anti-skid grooves, the friction between the wheel 405 and the ground is increased, and the grip is maintained more effectively.

[0028] For further information, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, two groups of rotating frames 406 are provided, and a horizontal axis 408 is fixedly connected between the two groups of rotating frames 406, and the horizontal axis 408 passes through the middle of the inner part of the wheel 405 and is rotatably connected to the wheel 405. The top and bottom of the rotating frame 406 are symmetrically rotatably connected with auxiliary wheels 409, and the auxiliary wheels 409 are rollingly connected to the rotating ring 402 through the slide groove 407. The rotating ring 402 rotates to realize the synchronous rotation of the slide groove 407, so that the friction between the auxiliary wheels 409 and the slide groove 407 realizes the rotation of the rotating frame 406. At the same time, the design of the horizontal axis 408 realizes that the wheel 405 can operate normally.

[0029] For further information, see Figure 2 and Figure 5In this embodiment, the outside of the fixed disk 401 is symmetrically fixedly connected with a connecting frame 5, the inside of the connecting frame 5 is slidably connected with a limiting column 6, the outside of the limiting column 6 is fixedly connected to a limiting plate, and the outside of the limiting column 6 is located at the bottom of the limiting plate and is sleeved with a shock-absorbing spring 7. When encountering a bumpy road section, the wheel 405 will fall from a high place to a low place, so that the limiting column 6 is squeezed downward inside the connecting frame 5, thereby realizing the contraction of the shock-absorbing spring 7, thereby unloading the vibration force.

[0030] For further information, see Figure 2 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, a connecting column 8 is fixedly connected between the limit columns 6, and a moving block 9 is slidably connected between the connecting columns 8. The top of the moving block 9 is rotatably connected to a connecting rod 10, and the end of the connecting rod 10 away from the moving block 9 is rotatably connected to a mounting seat. A telescopic spring 11 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting column 8 and on the side away from the moving block 9. When on a bumpy road, the front end of the lawn mower 1 will shake up and down, thereby squeezing the mounting seat downward, thereby completing the mutual expansion of the connecting rods 10, driving the moving blocks 9 away from each other, thereby squeezing the telescopic spring 11, completing the force unloading work, and alleviating the impact force on the wheel 405.

[0031] In this embodiment, the implementation scenario is specifically as follows: when the lawn mower 1 is in use, a group of rotating blades are installed at the bottom thereof to cut the roots of weeds. However, when turning is required, the operator needs to forcibly control the handle 3 and forcibly deviate the driving wheel 2 in situ, so that the lawn mower 1 can be turned in a certain direction, which is very laborious. By connecting the bottom of the driving gear 404 with the output end of the motor, the driving gear 404 is meshed with the driven gear 403, so that the driven gear 403 rotates, thereby driving the rotating ring 402 to rotate, and realizing the synchronous rotation of the slide groove 407, so that the auxiliary wheel 409 and the slide groove 407 can rotate synchronously. The friction between the grooves 407 enables the rotating frame 406 to rotate. At the same time, the design of the horizontal axis 408 enables the wheel 405 to operate normally. When encountering a bumpy road section, the wheel 405 will fall from a high place to a low place, and the limit column 6 will be squeezed downward inside the connecting frame 5, so that the shock-absorbing spring 7 will contract, thereby unloading the vibration force. At the same time, the front end of the lawn mower 1 will be pressed down synchronously, so that the mounting seat will be squeezed downward, thereby completing the mutual expansion of the connecting rods 10, driving the moving blocks 9 to move away from each other, thereby squeezing the telescopic spring 11, completing the force unloading work, and further alleviating the impact force on the wheel 405.

[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
