[0035] The embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] According to some embodiments of this utility model, refer to Figures 1 to 5A mechanical lifting and placing wheel is mounted on the object 110. The mechanical lifting and placing wheel includes a mounting base 100, a support base 200, and a pedal 300. The mounting base 100 is detachably mounted on the object 110. The support base 200 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 100. The lower end of the support base 200 is provided with a roller 210. The support base 200 is provided with an elongated through hole 220, which has a first end and a second end, with the first end located to the right of the second end. The pedal 300 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 100. The pedal 300 is provided with a guide shaft 310, which is inserted into the elongated through hole 220. Rotation of the pedal 300 can drive the guide shaft 310 to move along the extension direction of the elongated through hole 220, and drive the support base 200 to rotate relative to the mounting base 100. The pedal 300 has a first abutment surface 321 and abutment surface 322. When the pedal 300 rotates and the first abutment surface 321 abuts against the support surface 201 of the support base 200, the guide shaft 310 is located at... At the first end of the elongated through hole 220, the lowest end of the roller 210 is lower than the lowest end of the object 110 and supports the object 110. The mounting base 100, the support base 200 and the pedal 300 are relatively fixed to achieve self-locking. When the pedal 300 rotates so that the second abutting surface 322 abuts against the support surface 201 of the support base 200, the guide shaft 310 is located at the second end of the elongated through hole 220, the lowest end of the roller 210 is higher than the lowest end of the object 110, and the mounting base 100, the support base 200 and the pedal 300 are relatively fixed to achieve self-locking.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 When it is necessary to move object 110, roller 210 needs to support object 110. Rotating pedal 300 counterclockwise moves guide shaft 310 toward the first end of elongated through hole 220. Support base 200 and roller 210 follow pedal 300 in a counterclockwise rotation. Roller 210 gradually rotates downwards and contacts the ground. Roller 210 continues to apply downward force, thus lifting the object, ultimately causing the first contact surface 321 to abut against and fit against the support surface 201 of support base 200. The mechanical lifting wheel... Figure 4 The state changes to Figure 2 The mounting base 100, support base 200, and pedal 300 are in a relatively fixed state, achieving self-locking. This can be understood as referring to... Figure 2 and Figure 5 When the roller 210 supports the object 110, the roller 210 is subjected to an upward force applied by the ground, which causes the support seat 200 to fit tightly against the first contact surface 321 and apply an upward force to it, making it difficult for the pedal 300 to rotate relative to the support seat 200, thereby completing the self-locking.

[0038] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5When it is necessary to retract the roller 210, it needs to be retracted upwards. Rotating the pedal 300 clockwise moves the guide shaft 310 toward the second end of the elongated through-hole 220. The support base 200 and roller 210 follow the pedal 300 in a clockwise direction. The roller 210 gradually rotates upwards, thus lifting off the ground, while the object gradually moves downwards and contacts the ground. Finally, the second contact surface 322 abuts against the support surface 201 of the support base 200, and the mechanical lifting and lowering wheel... Figure 2 The state changes to Figure 4 The mounting base 100, support base 200, and pedal 300 are in a relatively fixed state, achieving self-locking. This can be understood as referring to... Figure 4 and Figure 5 The second abutment surface 322 of the pedal 300 is attached to the support surface 201 and applies a downward force to the support surface 201. Since the first abutment surface 321 and the second abutment surface 322 have a certain angle, the pedal 300 is difficult to rotate relative to the support seat 200 to make the first abutment surface 321 contact the support surface 201 without the interference of external forces, thereby completing the self-locking.

[0039] This technical solution utilizes the principles of eccentricity and small-angle self-locking to achieve the raising and lowering of the roller 210. This mechanical raising and lowering roller has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and has a long service life.

[0040] According to some embodiments of this utility model, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The mounting base 100 is provided with a first shaft 121 and a second shaft 122. The first shaft 121 is higher than the second shaft 122. The guide shaft 310 is higher than the second shaft 122 and lower than the first shaft 121. The first shaft 121 passes through and is rotatably connected to the pedal 300, and the second shaft 122 passes through and is rotatably connected to the support base 200. The axes of the first shaft 121, the second shaft 122, and the guide shaft 310 are all in the front-back direction. When the pedal 300 rotates around the first shaft 121, it can drive the support base 200 to rotate around the second shaft 122, causing the guide shaft 310 to move along the extension direction of the elongated through hole 220.

[0041] Preferred, refer to Figure 5 The side of the first abutment surface 321 closest to the mounting base 100 is connected to the side of the second abutment surface 322, that is, the right side of the first abutment surface 321 is connected to the left side of the second abutment surface 322. The included angle between the first abutment surface 321 and the second abutment surface 322 is an obtuse angle, thereby ensuring that the support surface 201 has a certain resistance when switching between contacting the first abutment surface 321 and contacting the second abutment surface 322, thus ensuring self-locking. When it is necessary to switch the support surface 201 between contacting the first abutment surface 321 and contacting the second abutment surface 322, the operator can switch by rotating the pedal 300 to overcome the resistance.

[0042] According to some embodiments of this utility model, refer to Figure 1 The mounting base 100 is provided with multiple mounting holes 130, which are used to be installed on the object 110 with bolts, so that the mounting base 100 is fixedly connected to the object 110.

[0043] According to some embodiments of this utility model, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 The pedal 300 is provided with an inclined part 330 at the end away from the mounting base 100, that is, the left end of the pedal 300 is provided with an inclined part 330. The inclined part 330 gradually tilts downward in the direction away from the mounting base 100, so that the operator can pull up or press the pedal 300 through the inclined part 330.

[0044] According to some embodiments of this utility model, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The upper end of the support base 200 is provided with a notch 230. When the second abutting surface 322 abuts against the support surface 201 of the support base 200 and the guide shaft 310 is located at the second end of the elongated through hole 220, the first shaft 121 is located inside the notch 230. The first shaft 121 abuts against the notch 230, and the guide shaft 310 abuts against the leftmost end of the elongated through hole 220. The cooperation between the first shaft 121 and the guide shaft 310 can prevent the pedal 300 from continuing to rotate in the clockwise direction.

[0045] According to some embodiments of this utility model, refer to Figure 5 The elongated through hole 220 is arc-shaped with the center of the arc located below the elongated through hole 220, so that the guide shaft 310 can move along the extension direction of the elongated through hole 220 when it rotates with the pedal 300, thus avoiding jamming.

[0046] According to some embodiments of this utility model, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The upper surface of the pedal 300 is provided with a groove 340. It can be understood that when the operator steps on the pedal 300, the presence of the groove 340 makes it less likely for the operator's foot to slip, ensuring that the operator can step on the pedal 300.

[0047] In this specification, the reference to the term "some embodiments" means that a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or example is included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0048] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
