[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0024] Reference Figures 1-4 A low-noise pulley assembly for sports equipment includes a U-shaped frame 1, a pulley 2 on the inner side of the U-shaped frame 1, and an annular groove 4 on the outer side of the pulley 2 to limit the pull rope placed on the pulley 2, thereby ensuring the effective interaction between the pulley 2 and the pull rope.
[0025] Among them, a through groove 5 is provided on the side of the pulley 2, and the through groove 5 passes through the pulley 2, making the pulley 2 a hollow design and improving the lightweight of the pulley 2.
[0026] To further improve the stability of the pull rope on the pulley 2, a limiting seat 6 with both sides bent downward in an "L" shape is provided at the top inside the U-shaped frame 1. The top of the pulley 2 is placed inside the limiting seat 6, and the two ends of the limiting seat 6 are detachably connected to the U-shaped frame 1 through the connector 7. This can wrap and limit the pull rope placed in the annular groove 4, preventing the pull rope from coming out of the annular groove 4 when the pulley assembly is in use.
[0027] The side of pulley 2 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of U-shaped frame 1 via connecting shaft 3. A fixing frame is installed on the top of U-shaped frame 1, wherein, for example... Figure 1 As shown, the fixing frame includes a connecting seat 17, which is fixed on the top of the U-shaped frame 1. A first connecting ring 18 is fixed on the top of the connecting seat 17, and a second connecting ring 19 is connected to the first connecting ring 18. A mounting plate 20 is installed on the second connecting ring 19. Mounting holes are provided at the corners of the mounting plate 20. The U-shaped frame 1 is connected by the sleeve of the two connecting rings, so that the U-shaped frame 1 has more rotation angles. This improves the ability of the pulley assembly to turn in the direction of the force on the pull rope when it is subjected to a force in the tilting direction. The mounting plate 20 allows the pulley assembly to be fixed to the sports equipment with bolts.
[0028] It should be noted that both the surface of the first connecting ring 18 and the surface of the second connecting ring 19 are covered with a buffer rubber sleeve to prevent loud noises when the two connecting rings collide or bump.
[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a receiving groove 15 is provided on both sides of the U-shaped frame 1, and an oil storage box 8 is placed inside the receiving groove 15. The receiving groove 15 is provided on both sides of the oil storage box 8, and a skirt 16 is installed on the outer wall of the oil storage box 8. The skirt 16 can be detachably installed on the U-shaped frame 1 to facilitate the installation and removal of the oil storage box 8 on the U-shaped frame 1. An oil drain pipe 10 is located at the center of both sides of the bottom of the oil storage box 8. The bottom of the oil drain pipe 10 corresponds to the rotation connection of the connecting shaft 3, so that the lubricating oil in the oil storage box 8 can fall along the oil drain pipe 10 onto the connection between the connecting shaft 3 and the U-shaped frame 1 to lubricate the connecting shaft 3, making the transmission of the pull rope to the pulley 2 smoother and reducing the generation of noise.
[0030] An oil filling hole 9 is installed on the top of the oil storage box 8, through which lubricating oil can be added into the oil storage box 8. A baffle 11 is provided at the upper part of the inside of the oil storage box 8. The side of the baffle 11 is fixed to the inner wall of the oil storage box 8. The lubricating oil falling into the oil storage box 8 will be blocked by the baffle 11 and will flow down along the baffle 11 to both ends of the oil storage box 8. Two limiting plates 13 are provided in the middle of the lower part of the baffle 11. The bottom of the two limiting plates 13 is inclined towards the relatively far side, so that the lubricating oil added into the oil storage box 8 is concentrated in the space of the relatively far side of the two limiting plates 13. The frontal projection of the oil drain pipe 10 is located between the two limiting plates 13, and the bottom of the limiting plate 13 is fixed to the bottom of the oil storage box 8, while the side of the limiting plate 13 is fixed to the inner wall of the oil storage box 8.
[0031] Specifically, when the pulley assembly is in use, the continuously pulled rope will cause the entire pulley assembly to shake, causing the lubricating oil in the oil reservoir 8 to shake as well. This allows the lubricating oil to fall onto the baffle 11 along the limiting plate 13. Under the obstruction of the baffle 11, some of the lubricating oil splashed up by the shaking will fall between the two limiting plates 13, and then fall into the oil drain pipe 10 and drip onto the connecting shaft 3 as it slides down. In this way, the amount of lubricating oil used can be controlled through a simple mechanical structure to prevent the lubricating oil from being wasted due to continuous use.
[0032] It should be noted that, in order to better direct the lubricating oil between the two limiting plates 13, a first guide seat 12 is installed at the bottom center of the baffle 11. The first guide seat 12 is an inverted cone shape, and the bottom of the first guide seat 12 is located between the two limiting plates 13. In addition, a second guide seat 14 is installed at the bottom of the two limiting plates 13 on the relatively close side. The bottom of the second guide seat 14 is fixed to the bottom of the oil reservoir 8, and the bottom of the second guide seat 14 corresponds to the oil drain pipe 10, so that the lubricating oil falling between the two limiting plates 13 can be concentrated at the oil drain pipe 10.
[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
