Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of double-brake universal casters, in particular to a double-brake silent universal caster. Background Art

[0002] Double brake universal caster generally refers to a caster with two brake devices that can lock the rotation and rolling of the caster at the same time. However, since the wheel body of the traditional caster is made of non-silent materials such as hard rubber, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), nylon, etc., these materials will produce greater friction and noise when in contact with the ground, and these non-silent casters may use metal balls or metal rollers, which may produce more noise when in contact with the ground, because the contact between metals will also produce friction and vibration. These noises may cause interference in a quiet environment, especially in places that need to be kept quiet (such as hospitals, offices, libraries) or in a quiet home environment at night. Using such casters in these environments may have a negative impact on surrounding work or activities, and casters that lack silent characteristics may experience friction and wear more quickly during use, requiring more frequent maintenance and replacement, increasing the maintenance cost of the equipment.

[0020] Among them, the drawings are only used for illustrative purposes and represent only schematic diagrams rather than actual pictures, and should not be understood as limitations on this patent; in order to better illustrate the embodiments of the utility model, some parts of the drawings will be omitted, enlarged or reduced, and do not represent the size of the actual product.

[0021] Reference Figures 1 to 4 A double-brake silent universal caster shown in the figure includes a rotating seat 1 for adjusting the direction of the universal caster, a double brake 2 for locking the rotation and preventing rolling, two silent wheels 3, two rolling bearings 4, a special shaft 5, a soundproof frame 6, a damper 7, four buffer devices 8 and a support plate 9. Each group of silent wheels 3 is rotatably arranged on the outer ring of the rolling bearing 4. The wheel part adopts elastic rubber to absorb the vibration force generated by the collision between the wheel part and the ground, thereby reducing noise. The special shaft 5 passes through the inner rings of the two rolling bearings 4 and is fixedly connected to the rolling bearings 4. The special shaft 5 fits tightly with the rolling bearings 4. The two side plates of the soundproof frame 6 are respectively fixedly arranged at the two ends of the special shaft 5. The damper 7 is vertically arranged between the two silent wheels 3, and the lower hanging ring of the damper 7 is fixedly connected to the special shaft 5. The upper end of the damper 7 is fixedly connected to the support plate 9, and the four buffer devices 8 are fixedly arranged between the soundproof frame 6 and the support plate 9. Each set of silent wheels 3 is rotatably set on the outer ring of the rolling bearing 4, and high-quality rolling bearings 4 are used to ensure smooth rolling of the wheels, reduce friction and noise, and then through the inner ring of the rolling bearing 4 and fixedly connected to the rolling bearing 4, the accuracy and stability of the caster installation are ensured, and the damper 7 is vertically set between the two silent wheels 3. At the same time, under the operation of the four sets of buffer devices 8, the damper 7 can absorb the impact and vibration between the caster and the ground, thereby reducing the generation of noise.

[0022] The surface of the silent wheel 3 is fixedly provided with a rubber wheel cover 31. The rubber wheel cover 31 can reduce the direct contact between the caster and the ground, thereby reducing the transmission of vibration and impact, and further reducing the noise generated when the caster rolls on the ground, especially in occasions where a quiet environment is required, such as medical equipment or office furniture, and the rubber surface provides better grip when in contact with the ground, making it easier for the caster to travel on different ground surfaces.

[0023] Each set of buffer devices 8 includes two shock-absorbing washers 81 and a pressure spring 82. The two shock-absorbing washers 81 are fixedly arranged at both ends of the pressure spring 82, and the upper end of the spring is fixedly connected to the support plate 9 through a spring fixing member, and the lower end of the spring is fixedly connected to the sound insulation frame 6 through a spring fixing member. The buffer device 8 is formed by the fixed connection between the shock-absorbing washers 81 and the pressure spring 82. When the road surface is uneven, the shock-absorbing washers 81 can receive the vibration from the wheel body, thereby reducing the impact of these vibrations on the surrounding environment and the equipment itself, which is very beneficial for improving equipment performance, protecting structures and reducing noise.

[0024] The inner wall of the sound insulation frame 6 is fixedly provided with sound absorbing foam 61. The sound absorbing foam 61 is a porous material, usually made of polymer foam, polyurethane or similar materials. These foam structures can absorb the energy of sound waves and reduce the reflection and propagation of sound.

[0025] A through hole 62 for the damper 7 to pass through is provided in the middle of the upper end of the sound insulation frame 6. The damper 7 passes through the through hole 62, and when the wheel body needs buffering, the damper 7 can slide back and forth in the through hole 62.

[0026] The side of the silent wheel 3 is fixedly provided with an anti-entanglement protective shell 32, and the shell is a sound-absorbing board. The anti-entanglement protective shell on the caster can prevent external materials from being entangled on the bearing or bracket of the caster. The materials entangled on the caster may cause noise, which may rub against the ground or collide with the caster parts. The anti-entanglement protective shell 32 can reduce such noise and provide a quieter working or living environment.

[0027] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
