Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a refrigerator drawer roller and belongs to the technical field of refrigerator accessories. Background Art
[0002] The freezer compartment of a refrigerator typically features a drawer-style structure, with rollers installed at the bottom of the drawer, which cooperate with rollers inside the freezer compartment to ensure smooth movement. Existing drawer rollers typically consist of two half-wheels that are joined together, with the head of the axle clamped between the two halves. The joint is then welded to form a single unit. However, this structure only welds the outer edges of the two halves, resulting in a long weld seam. This reduces the strength of the roller after welding, making it prone to cracking and resulting in a high defective product rate. Furthermore, the weld seam is located on the active surface of the roller, making it susceptible to damage. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the above deficiencies in the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a refrigerator drawer roller, which can improve the strength of the roller after welding, reduce the defective product rate, and extend the service life of the roller.
[0004] The refrigerator drawer roller described in the utility model includes a roller body, a pressure cover and a wheel axle. The roller body is provided with a pressure cover mounting groove, the pressure cover is embedded in the pressure cover mounting groove of the roller body, and the head of the wheel axle is clamped between the pressure cover and the roller body and is movably connected to the two.
[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is to provide a refrigerator drawer roller, by arranging a pressure cover installation groove on the roller body, and embedding the pressure cover into the pressure cover installation groove to pre-fix the wheel axle, and then welding the roller body and the pressure cover to shorten the weld length and increase the welding strength; at the same time, the weld position is not subject to external force, so as to extend the service life of the roller.
[0006] Preferably, the gland mounting groove is provided with a step A and a step B, wherein the step A is used to position the wheel axle, and the step B is a welding surface, and the step B is located inside the roller body.
[0007] Preferably, a groove is provided on the rolling surface of the roller body, and the groove is adapted to the rolling track inside the refrigerator.
[0008] Preferably, the roller body is provided with a through hole A, and the pressure cover is provided with a through hole B. After installation, the through hole A and the through hole B are coaxial, and the through hole A and the through hole B radially position the wheel axle.
[0009] Preferably, the gland is provided with a step C, which cooperates with the step A to perform axial positioning on the axle.
[0010] Preferably, a positioning ring is provided at the head of the wheel axle for cooperating with step C and step A for axial positioning, a cross groove is also provided at the head of the wheel axle for installation, and a self-tapping thread is provided at the tail of the wheel axle.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] The refrigerator drawer roller described in the utility model pre-fixes the wheel axle by embedding the pressure cover into the pressure cover mounting groove of the roller body, and then welds the roller body and the pressure cover together, thereby shortening the weld length, improving the strength of the roller after welding, and reducing the defective product rate; at the same time, the weld position is not subject to external force, thereby extending the service life of the roller.
