[0027] like Figure 1-4As shown, a five-wheel linkage moving structure applied to a bed includes a base frame 2, each of the four corners of the base frame 2 is provided with a caster 1, an intermediate shaft 3 is installed in the base frame 2, and an intermediate caster 4 is installed on the intermediate shaft 3, a linkage component is provided in the base frame 2, an adjustment handle 5 is provided on the outer side of the base frame 2, the linkage component is connected to the adjustment handle 5, and the intermediate caster 4 is connected to the linkage component, and the linkage component drives the intermediate caster to fit with the ground or float by adjusting the handle. The intermediate caster can be used to assist movement and positioning, and can also make the caster float. At this time, the casters at the four corners of the base frame are relied on for movement.

[0028] The intermediate caster 4 includes a caster bracket 41 and a roller 42. The roller 42 is rotatably connected to the caster bracket 41. The caster bracket 41 is connected to the intermediate shaft 3. The intermediate shaft 3 is driven to rotate by the linkage assembly and then drives the caster bracket 41 and the caster 42 to rotate synchronously.

[0029] The intermediate rotating shaft 3 is provided with a limit frame 6, and a connecting shaft 7 is rotatably provided on the caster bracket 41. The connecting shaft 7 is provided with a connecting rod 8, and a limiting wheel 9 is mounted on the connecting rod 8. A rotating shaft 10 is movably provided on the connecting rod 8. The rotating shaft 10 is fixedly connected to the limit frame 6, and a travel groove 11 is provided on the limit frame 6, and the connecting shaft 7 is movably installed in the travel groove 11. The connecting shaft 7 can move up and down along the travel groove 11, and the connecting rod 8 and the connecting shaft 7 are vertically distributed. A sleeve can be provided on the connecting rod 7, and the rotating shaft can movably pass through the sleeve. The limit frame is relatively fixed, and the intermediate caster rotates synchronously with the rotation of the intermediate rotating shaft. When moving upward, it can contact with the limiting wheel to form a limit, and when it is pressed against the ground downward, it is separated from the limiting wheel. In the process of the intermediate caster moving up and down, the directional movement is achieved by the up and down movement of the connecting shaft in the travel groove in the limit frame.

[0030] The base frame 2 includes two longitudinal rods 21 and two transverse rods 22, which are connected head to tail to form a frame structure. A transverse fixing rod 12 is arranged inside the base frame 2, and the two ends of the transverse fixing rod 12 are fixedly installed with the two longitudinal rods 21 through a connecting plate, the middle rotating shaft is rotatably connected with the connecting plate, and the limit frame 6 is engaged with the transverse fixing rod 12.

[0031] The linkage assembly includes a linkage rod 13 and a connecting rod. The linkage rod 13 is arranged parallel to the longitudinal rod 21. The linkage rod is connected to the adjustment handle. One end of the connecting rod is connected to the linkage rod, and the other end of the connecting rod is connected to the intermediate shaft.

[0032] An adjustment shaft 14 is installed in each of the two transverse rods 22, and an adjustment handle is connected to each of the two ends of one of the adjustment shafts, and the two ends of the linkage rod are connected to the two adjustment shafts through a swing rod. When the adjustment handle is turned, the connected adjustment shaft is driven to rotate, and then the linkage rod is pulled to move, and the swing of the middle caster is realized through the connecting rod.

[0033] The connecting rod comprises a first connecting rod 15, a second connecting rod 16 and a third connecting rod 17. The first connecting rod 15 is fixedly mounted on the linkage rod 13. One end of the second connecting rod 16 is movably connected to the first connecting rod 15. The other end of the second connecting rod 16 is movably connected to the third connecting rod 17. The third connecting rod 17 is fixedly connected to the intermediate rotating shaft 3. A sliding groove 18 is provided in the third connecting rod 17. A sliding shaft 19 is movably inserted in the sliding groove 18. The sliding shaft 19 is fixedly connected to the other end of the second connecting rod 16. One end of the second connecting rod 16 is provided with a slot, which is movably clamped on the side wall of the first connecting rod and installed through a pin. The second connecting rod 16 can rotate within a small range relative to the first connecting rod 15. The second connecting rod 16 pulls the sliding shaft 19 to move up and down in the sliding groove 18, and pulls the third connecting rod 17 to swing at the same time. The swinging of the third connecting rod 17 drives the intermediate rotating shaft 3 to rotate.

[0034] A spring 20 is installed on the second connecting rod 16, and the spring 20 is connected to the first connecting rod 15. When the first connecting rod is pressed down, it will press against the spring to form a buffer.

[0035] The second connecting rod 16 is provided with a pin, and the spring is sleeved on the pin, so as to facilitate the stability of the spring assembly.

[0036] In this utility model, reference Figure 1 and 2 When the adjustment handle is turned clockwise, the linkage rod will swing to the right, which will drive the middle shaft to rotate counterclockwise, and the middle caster will rise. When the adjustment handle is turned counterclockwise, the linkage rod will swing to the left, which will drive the middle shaft to rotate clockwise, and the middle caster will sink.

[0037] When the middle caster is in contact with the ground, it cooperates with the casters at the four corners of the chassis to support the movement. If braking is required, you can step on or manually turn the adjustment handle counterclockwise, and the adjustment rotation drives the linkage rod to swing toward the left side of the chassis. The first link pulls the second link, and the second link pulls the slide shaft to move upward in the slide slot. At the same time, the third link is pulled to swing toward the left side of the chassis, driving the middle shaft to rotate clockwise. At this time, the middle caster sinks to form a tightening force.

[0038] When the middle caster is not needed, the adjustment handle can be stepped on or manually turned in the clockwise direction. The first connecting rod pushes the second connecting rod, and the second connecting rod pushes the sliding shaft to move from top to bottom in the sliding groove. At the same time, the third connecting rod is pushed toward the right side of the chassis, driving the middle rotating shaft to rotate counterclockwise, so that the middle caster floats up, and the connecting shaft moves upward in the travel groove until the middle caster touches the limiting wheel.

[0039] It should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. However, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
