Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of casters, and particularly to a detachable wheel frame structure with an adaptive wheel core. Background Art

[0002] Casters are widely used in production, and they can help people move objects conveniently. A caster consists of a wheel frame and a wheel core. In the existing ones, the wheel frame and the wheel core are mostly fixed and cannot be adjusted according to the size of the wheel core. When using spare parts, the sizes of the wheel cores may be different, resulting in the vehicle body being uneven when the caster is installed on the vehicle body, and the vehicle cannot run well. Therefore, it is necessary to design an adjustable and detachable wheel frame to adapt to different wheel cores and ensure normal functions. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art that the wheel frame cannot be adjusted and has poor adaptability, and provides a detachable wheel frame structure with an adaptive wheel core, in which the wheel frame is adjustable and has good adaptability.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] A detachable wheel frame structure with an adaptive wheel core, including a mounting frame. Above the mounting frame, there are mounting bolts for connecting with the vehicle body. Below the mounting frame, there is a straight rack. The straight rack is connected with two gears. The gears are connected with mounting plates. The mounting plates are slidably connected with the mounting frame. The gears are hinged with connecting plates. The ends of the two connecting plates are hinged and detachably connected with a wheel core. A limiting pin is slidably connected between adjacent teeth of the gear, and the limiting pin corresponds to the straight rack.

[0006] The mounting bolts on the mounting frame are used to connect with the vehicle body. A straight rack is arranged below the mounting frame. At both ends of the straight rack, gears are meshingly connected respectively. The gears are hinged with the mounting plates. The mounting plates are slidably connected with the mounting frame to ensure that the gears and the straight rack are in a connected state and play a connecting role. The gears are hinged with the connecting plates. The ends of the two connecting plates are hinged and connected with a wheel core. The two connecting plates and the straight rack form a triangle. By adjusting the meshing action between the gears and the straight rack, the angle between the connecting plates and the straight rack can be changed. When the two gears approach each other, the included angle between the connecting plates and the straight rack becomes larger, so that the height between the wheel core and the vehicle body increases. Through this adjustment, when using wheel cores of different sizes to be installed on the vehicle body, the vehicle body can be kept horizontal, the functions can be ensured to be normal, and the vehicle can run normally. A limiting pin is slidably connected between adjacent teeth of the gear. The limiting pin can be inserted into the teeth of the straight rack for limiting to ensure that it will not change after the height is adjusted well and to ensure stability.

The cross-section of the push block is triangular, so that it can interact better with the fixing block when contacting, complete the pushing-out action, and facilitate the operation.

[0012] Preferably, an arc-shaped groove is arranged on the end face of the fixing ring, a dial rod is connected with the rotating ring, and the dial rod is slidably connected with the arc-shaped groove. The dial rod is used to adjust the rotating action of the rotating ring, which is convenient for operation.

[0013] Preferably, limit blocks are provided at both ends of the arc groove, and the limit blocks correspond to the shifting rod. The limit blocks are used to limit the shifting rod to prevent the shifting rod from moving and ensure the stability of the gear after adjustment.

The gears 4 are connected to a mounting plate 5. The mounting plate 5 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 1. The gears 4 are hinged with a connecting plate 6, and the ends of the two connecting plates 6 are hinged and detachably connected to a wheel core 7. Between adjacent teeth of the gear 4, there is a limit pin 8 slidably connected. The limit pin 8 corresponds to the straight rack 3.

[0027] As Figure 2 shown, the mounting frame 1 is provided with a sliding groove 10. The upper end of the mounting plate 5 is connected with a slide bar 50. The lower end of the mounting plate 5 is hinged to the gear 4. The slide bar 50 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 10.

[0028] As Figure 2-5 shown, between adjacent teeth of the gear 4, there is a relief hole 40. The relief hole 40 is sleeved with the limit pin 8. On the tooth end face of the straight rack 3, there is a limit hole 30. The limit pin 8 is connected to the limit hole 30.

[0029] As Figure 5 shown, in the middle of the limit pin 8, there is a limit plate 80. Between the limit plate 80 and the lower end face of the relief hole 40, there is a spring 9 connected.

[0030] As Figure 3 、 6 shown, the gear 4 is sleeved with a fixed ring 41. The fixed ring 41 is sleeved with a gear shaft 48, and the gear shaft 48 is connected to the connecting plate 6. On the side of the fixed ring 41, there is an annular groove 42. The annular groove 42 is connected to a rotating ring 43. On the outer wall of the rotating ring 43, there are several fixed blocks 44 connected. The fixed blocks 44 are wedge-shaped blocks. The fixed blocks 44 correspond to the limit pins 8.

[0031] As Figure 5As described above, a push block 81 is provided on the bottom surface of the limit pin 8. The cross-sectional shape of the push block 81 is triangular. The inclined surface of the push block 81 corresponds to the inclined surface of the fixing block 44.

[0032] like Figure 3 , 6 As shown, the end surface of the fixed ring 41 is provided with an arc groove 45. The rotating ring 43 is connected with a lever 46.
