The second bracket body 122 plays the role of auxiliary support and adjustment, and the second bracket body 122 is complementary with the first bracket body 121, the two provide basic connection for damping through the rotational connecting point of the first side, and the two are limited through the limit matching of the second side, so that the second bracket body 122 cannot move randomly relative to the first bracket body 121 within a certain range, and the structural stability and structural strength of the mounting bracket 12 are ensured.
[0065] The utility model discloses mounting bracket 12 is arranged as the double bracket body of rotational connection, can effectively disperse the pressure, reduce the load of single bracket, prolong the service life of mounting bracket 12, and through the limit matching, the first bracket body 121 and the second bracket body 122 can keep stable structural integrity even in the high dynamic environment.
[0066] Figure 5It is a front view of the universal wheel provided by the embodiment of the utility model. Figure 6 It is Figure 5 It is a sectional view along line A-A in the figure.
[0067] Refer to Figure 5 And Figure 6 In some embodiments of the utility model, the first side of the first frame body 121 is connected with a hinged shaft 124, and the second frame body 122 is rotatably connected to the hinged shaft 124; the second side of the first frame body 121 is connected with a limiting shaft 125, and the second frame body 122 is adapted to abut to the limiting shaft 125; the center lines of the shafts of the adjusting shaft 22, the hinged shaft 124 and the limiting shaft 125 form a virtual triangle.
[0068] The hinged shaft 124 rotatably connects the first frame body 121 and the second frame body 122, so that the first frame body 121 and the second frame body 122 can rotate relative to each other, thereby providing a connection basis for the shock absorption function described below. The limiting shaft 125 is used to limit the maximum rotation angle of the second frame body 122 relative to the first frame body 121, so as to ensure that the second frame body 122 will not be excessively deflected, thereby increasing the stability of the mounting bracket 12. The adjusting shaft 22 is used to fix the adjusting component, and by rotating the adjusting component, the entire wheel body 21 is indirectly lifted or lowered, so as to realize height adjustment.
[0069] It should be noted that a limiting groove 1223 is arranged on the second frame body 122 at a position corresponding to the limiting shaft 125, and when the second frame body 122 rotates relative to the first frame body 121, the limiting shaft 125 is clamped into the limiting groove 1223, thereby limiting the rotation of the second frame body 122 relative to the first frame body 121, so as to realize the limiting effect and improve the stability of the first frame body 121 and the second frame body 122. Of course, the upper surface of the second frame body 122 can also directly abut on the limiting shaft 125 to realize the limiting effect.

[0073] In other words, the elastic member 40 is installed between the first frame body 121 and the second frame body 122, and effective energy conversion is performed by using the relative movement space between the first frame body 121 and the second frame body 122. When the device travels on uneven ground, the elastic member 40 absorbs vibration energy by compression under force and reduces the bumping feeling caused by the uneven ground. When the wheel leaves the obstacle or returns to the flat ground, the elastic member 40 quickly returns to its original state and provides stable support force for the universal wheel again, ensuring smooth operation of the device.
[0074] The universal wheel provided by the embodiment of the utility model can not only realize height adjustment of the wheel body 21, but also realize shock absorption function, has novel structure and high practicability.
[0075] The elastic member 40 can be a spring, rubber, polyurethane or other material with excellent elasticity and durability to ensure reliability during long-term use.
