Specific implementation

[0026] In order to make the technical personnel in the prior art better understand the technical scheme of the utility model, the utility model will be introduced further in detail below in conjunction with the drawings.

[0027] As Figures 1-8As shown, a wheelchair includes a hub 1 and a tire 11 on the hub 1, a brake box 2, and a swing rod 24 hinged in the brake box 2. A push rod 22 is slidably disposed at the first end of the swing rod 24. A brake rod 26 hinged in the brake box 2 is movably disposed on the tire 11, and the second ends of the brake rod 26 and the swing rod 24 are movably connected. A locking block 4 is slidably disposed in the brake box 2. The swing rod 24 is slidably disposed on a first curved surface block 41 disposed on the locking block 4. The push rod 22 is slidably disposed on a second curved surface block 42 disposed on the locking block 4. The locking block 4 slides to disengage the first curved surface block 41 from the swing path of the swing rod 24. The swing lever 24 swings in conjunction with the brake lever 26 to cause the brake lever 26 to swing and adhere to the tire 11 for deceleration. The swing lever 24 swings to press the first curved block 41. When the swing lever 24 passes the first curved block 41, the first curved block 41 blocks and limits the swing lever 24 so that the brake lever 26 remains in contact with the tire 11. By pressing the push lever 22 to slide relative to the swing lever 24, the push lever 22 presses the second curved block 42 and causes the locking block 4 to slide. At this time, the first curved block 41 is disengaged from the swing path of the swing lever 24, thereby releasing the limitation on the swing lever 24 so that the swing lever 24 can swing again. Thus, by locking and unlocking the swing lever 24, the brake lever 26 can be kept in contact with the tire 11 for continuous deceleration and disengaged from the tire 11 to stop deceleration.

[0028] Specifically, the top of the brake box 2 has an opening 21 that communicates with it, and the push rod 22 moves within the opening 21.

[0029] As a further technical solution provided by this utility model, a return spring 23 is provided between the swing rod 24 and the push rod 22, and a locking spring 43 is provided between the locking block 4 and the brake box 2. A connecting rod 25 is hinged to the second end of the swing rod 24, and the first end of the connecting rod 25 is hinged to the brake rod 26.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the two ends of the return spring 23 are fixedly installed on the swing rod 24 and the push rod 22, respectively, and the two ends of the locking spring 43 are fixedly installed on the locking block 4 and the brake box 2, respectively. When the swing rod 24 swings and slides on the first curved surface block 41, at this time... Figure 5 As shown, the locking spring 43 pushes the locking block 4 to make the first curved block 41 fit against the swing rod 24. Then, when the swing rod 24 passes the first curved block 41, the locking spring 43 pushes the side of the first curved block 41 to block the swing rod 24, thereby preventing the swing rod 24 from rebounding. When it is necessary to release the blockage of the swing rod 24, the locking spring 43 pushes the first curved block 41 to block the swing rod 24, thereby preventing the swing rod 24 from rebounding. Figure 4As shown, by pressing the push rod 22 to make the push rod 22 extrude on the second curved block 42, at this time the second curved block 42 is extruded to move away from the swing rod 24, and at the same time the second curved block 42 drives the locking block 4 to make the first curved block 41 slide and remove the shielding of the swing rod 24, then keep pressing the push rod 22 and swing the push rod 22 again to reset the swing rod 24, so as to realize the unlocking and resetting of the swing rod 24.

[0031] Further, the brake lever 26 is fixedly installed with a friction box 3, the friction box 3 is provided with a brake block 32 in the cavity 31, and the brake block 32 is provided with a matching curved surface on the side of the tire 11.

[0032] Specifically, by using the matching curved surface on the brake block 32, when the brake lever 26 swings to make the brake block 32 adhere to the tire 11, the matching curved surface adheres to the tire 11 to slow down the tire 11, and the matching curved surface can increase the contact surface between the brake block 32 and the tire 11, thereby better slowing down the tire 11.

[0033] Further, the matching curved surface of the brake block 32 is fixedly installed with an arc-shaped brake rubber 33.

[0034] Specifically, by using the arc-shaped brake rubber 33 on the brake block 32, the adhesion of the brake block 32 and the tire 11 is improved, and the friction between them is also increased, thereby improving the deceleration effect.

[0035] Further, the friction box 3 is symmetrically hingedly provided with a contact rod 35, the first ends of the two contact rods 35 are movably arranged on the opposite two side walls of the hub 1, and the contact rod 35 is provided with a torsion spring 37.

[0036] Specifically, the two ends of the torsion spring 37 are fixedly installed on the friction box 3 and the contact rod 35, and the contact rod 35 is driven to overturn to make the first end of the contact rod 35 adhere to the opposite two side walls of the hub 1, thereby further slowing down the hub 1.

[0037] Further, the first end of the contact rod 35 is fixedly installed with a speed reduction block 36.

[0038] Specifically, the speed reduction block 36 can be a rubber block, and the speed reduction blocks 36 on the two contact rods 35 adhere to the opposite two side walls of the hub 1 at the same time, thereby improving the effect of slowing down the hub 1.

[0039] Further, the brake block 32 is fixedly installed with a buffer spring 34, and the second ends of the two contact rods 35 are located on the moving path of the brake block 32.

[0040] Specifically, the two ends of the buffer spring 34 are fixedly installed on the brake block 32 and the friction box 3 respectively. When the arc-shaped brake rubber 33 on the brake block 32 is attached to the tire 11, as the brake lever 26 continues to swing, the brake block 32 stops moving due to the blockage of the tire 11, while the friction box 3 continues to move close to the tire 11. At this time, as shown in Figure 7 the brake block 32 simultaneously presses the second ends of the two contact rods 35, and then the first ends of the two contact rods 35 simultaneously approach and attach to the outer walls on the opposite sides of the wheel hub 1, so as to better improve the effect of decelerating the wheel hub 1 by utilizing the friction between the arc-shaped brake rubber 33 and the tire 11 and the friction between the deceleration block 36 and the wheel hub 1.

[0041] Furthermore, the contact rod 35 is a stainless steel rod.

[0042] Working principle: the pushing rod 22 is pushed forward to swing the swing rod 24 and slide on the first curved block 41. At this time, as shown in Figure 5 the locking spring 43 pushes the locking block 4 to make the first curved block 41 attach to the swing rod 24, and as the swing rod 24 swings, the swing rod 24 cooperates with the connecting rod 25 to swing the brake lever 26, which drives the friction box 3 to approach the tire 11. When the arc-shaped brake rubber 33 on the brake block 32 is attached to the tire 11, as the brake lever 26 continues to swing, the brake block 32 stops moving due to the blockage of the tire 11, while the friction box 3 continues to move close to the tire 11. At this time, as shown in Figure 7 the brake block 32 simultaneously presses the second ends of the two contact rods 35, and then the first ends of the two contact rods 35 simultaneously approach and attach to the outer walls on the opposite sides of the wheel hub 1, so as to better improve the effect of decelerating the wheel hub 1 by utilizing the friction between the arc-shaped brake rubber 33 and the tire 11 and the friction between the deceleration block 36 and the wheel hub 1. Then, when the swing rod 24 passes the first curved block 41, the side of the first curved block 41 is blocked to the swing rod 24 under the pushing of the locking spring 43, so as to avoid the swing rod 24 from rebounding. At this time, the arc-shaped brake rubber 33 and the deceleration block 36 remain in the attached state.

[0043] When it is necessary to unlock the swing rod 24, as shown in Figure 4 the pushing rod 22 is pressed to make the pushing rod 22 press on the second curved block 42, at this time, the second curved block 42 is away from the swing rod 24 due to the pressing, and the second curved block 42 drives the locking block 4 to make the first curved block 41 slide and unlock the swing rod 24. Then, the pushing rod 22 is kept pressed and swung again to reset the swing rod 24, so as to realize the unlocking and resetting of the swing rod 24.

[0044] The above has only described certain exemplary embodiments of the present application by way of illustration, and it is needless to say that the described embodiments can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application for those skilled in the art. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature, and should not be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present application.
