Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of universal wheels, in particular to a quick-install universal wheel. Background Art

[0002] Universal wheels are so-called movable casters, and their structure allows 360-degree horizontal rotation. Casters are a general term, including movable casters and fixed casters. Fixed casters do not have a rotating structure and cannot rotate horizontally but only vertically. These two types of casters are generally used in combination. For example, the structure of a trolley is two fixed wheels in the front and two movable universal wheels in the back near the push handle.

[0003] For example, a quick-install universal wheel disclosed in the utility model with authorization announcement number CN219427844U has a ratchet block and a ratchet sleeve that cooperate with each other, so the rotating handle can only rotate the supporting foot in a fixed direction when it is rotated, thereby adjusting the height between the supporting foot and the mounting frame. When the rotating handle is rotated to a certain angle (that is, after the height of the supporting foot is adjusted a little), the rotating handle can be rotated in the direction to adjust the rotating handle to the desired position, and then the height of the supporting foot can be continued to be rotated and adjusted.

[0004] This prior art also has the following problems when used:

[0005] The roller and the mounting frame adopt an integrated structure. In actual use, since the roller is in direct contact with the ground, the damage rate of the roller is much higher than the damage rate of other parts such as the mounting frame. When the roller is damaged, it is necessary to replace the roller together with the mounting frame, otherwise the moving effect of the universal wheel will be affected, and the overall replacement is rather wasteful.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments, but the following embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, not all. Based on the embodiments in the implementation mode, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are all within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0028] Example

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1-4As shown, the utility model provides a quick-install universal wheel, which consists of a wheel frame 1, a brake pad 2 and a roller 6. The wheel frame 1 is installed at the bottom of a fixing frame 4, and the fixing frame 4 is installed at a suitable position of the device to be installed with screws. The brake pad 2 can realize the braking of the universal wheel. The upper end of the wheel frame 1 is rotatably connected to the bearing 33 through a connecting head 11, and the bearing 33 is fixed to the bottom end of a connecting head 3. The connecting head 3 is a columnar structure with a regular hexagonal cross section. A limiting groove 31 is provided on the upper part of the outer wall of the connecting head 3, and a mounting card groove 32 with a depth greater than the limiting groove 31 is provided on the lower part of the outer wall of the connecting head 3. The connecting head 3 is consistent with a mounting hole 41 provided at the bottom of the fixing frame 4. The mounting hole 41 is a columnar groove body with a regular hexagonal cross section. A fixing groove 42 is provided on the side wall of the mounting hole 41, and a limiting card block is connected in the fixing groove 42 through a spring kit 51. 1, the tail of the limit card block 15 is located in the fixed groove 42, the middle of the limit card block 15 is convex, the width of both sides is smaller than the middle position, and the outer side of the limit card block 15 is rounded, the position of the limit slot 31 and the installation slot 32 is aligned with the limit card block 15, and the width of the limit slot 31 and the installation slot 32 is consistent with the limit card block 15, so that when the connector 3 is inserted inward along the installation hole 41, the limit card block 15 can slide along the limit slot 31 and the installation slot 32, so that the limit card block 15 is stuck in the installation slot 32, and the bottom end of the limit card block 15 is provided with a protrusion 52 that can slide along the slide groove opened at the bottom end of the fixing frame 4, and the bottom end of the protrusion 52 is provided with an anti-slip pattern, which is convenient for the user to push the limit card block 15 outward, so that the connector 3 can be removed from the fixed groove 42, and the limit card block 15, the spring kit 151 and the fixed groove 42 form a clamping assembly;

[0030] Specifically, align the connector 3 with the fixing groove 42 and insert it. During the upward movement of the connector 3, the connector 3 contacts and squeezes the limiting card block 5 inward, so that the limiting card block 5 squeezes the spring kit 51, increases the elastic potential energy of the spring kit 51, and the limiting card block 5 slides along the limiting groove 31 into the installation card groove 32 to get stuck, and the connector 3 is stuck in the fixing frame 4 to complete the installation operation. When it needs to be disassembled, push the protrusion 52 at the bottom of the fixing frame 4 outward to drive the limiting card block 5 to squeeze the spring kit 51 inward, so that the contact surface between the limiting card block 5 and the installation card groove 32 completely enters the fixing groove 42, so that the connector 3 can be pulled outward, pull the connector 3 outward, let the connector 3 contact and squeeze the limiting card block 5, and take out the connector 3;

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 , Figure 6As shown, a rotatable roller 6 is installed at the bottom of the wheel frame 1, and mounting blocks 61 are provided at both ends of the roller shaft of the roller 6. The mounting block 61 is a columnar structure with a regular octagonal cross section. The inner side of the bottom of the wheel frame 1 is symmetrically provided with a quick-install groove 12, and a storage groove is provided at the tail of the quick-install groove 12. The tail of the limiting block 7 is located in the storage groove, and the limiting block 7 is installed in the storage groove through the spring kit 71. The inner side of the limiting block 7 is consistent with the mounting block 61, and the mounting block 61 can be clamped by the limiting block 7. The spring kit 71 is a middle protrusion, and the width of both sides is lower than the middle width, which is convenient for pushing in and out the mounting block 61 during installation and disassembly. The mounting block 61 and the spring kit 71 form a quick-install component;

[0032] Specifically, the installation block 61 is aligned with the quick-installation slot 12 and slid in, so that the installation block 61 contacts the outer side of the limiting block 7, and the roller 6 is pushed inward, squeezing the limiting block 7 to increase the elastic potential energy of the spring kit 71. When the installation block 61 is inserted into the inner side of the limiting block 7, the spring kit 71 is pushed out and clamps the installation block 61 under the action of the elastic potential energy of the spring kit 71. When the universal wheel moves and rotates, the roller 6 is always located at the rear side of the fixing frame 4. Therefore, the installation block 61 will not squeeze and wear the limiting block 2 7, thereby increasing the service life. When the roller 6 is damaged and needs to be replaced, the limiting block 2 7 is pressed from the quick-installation slot 12 to both sides, so that the installation block 61 is in a pull-out state, that is, the inner side of the limiting block 2 7 and the contact surface of the roller 6 are completely inserted into the receiving slot of the quick-installation slot 12, and the roller 6 is pulled outward at the same time, so that the installation blocks 61 on both sides of the roller 6 squeeze the limiting block 2 7, and the roller 6 is removed and replaced with a new roller 6.

[0033] Specific working principle:

[0034] During installation, align the installation blocks 61 on both sides of the roller 6 with the quick-loading groove 12 and insert them, let the limiting block 2 7 clamp the installation block 61 to fix the position of the roller 6, align the connecting head 3 with the installation hole 41 on the inner side of the fixing frame 4 and insert it, let the limiting block 1 5 be clamped in the installation groove 32. When disassembly is required, push the protrusion 52 outward and pull the wheel frame 1 at the same time to allow the connecting head 3 to be removed from the fixing frame 4. When the roller 6 needs to be replaced, press the limiting block 2 7 on both sides to allow the installation block 61 to be in a state where it can be pulled out of the quick-loading groove 12, and then remove the roller 6.

[0035] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only preferred examples of the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected. The scope of protection of the utility model is defined by the attached claims and their equivalents.
