Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of industrial caster technology, and in particular to a high-strength wheel body for industrial casters. Background Technology
[0002] Industrial casters are wheels used to move and support industrial equipment. They typically consist of a wheel body, a support frame, and bearings, and are characterized by high load-bearing capacity, good wear resistance, and flexible rotation. To enhance strength, some existing industrial casters are made with solid wheel bodies, using metal materials such as cast steel, cast iron, and alloy steel, as well as high-strength plastic materials such as nylon (PA) and polyurethane. These materials possess high strength and hardness, enabling them to withstand significant loads and impacts.
[0003] Solid wheel bodies increase the cost of industrial casters and also increase the cost and difficulty of subsequent maintenance. Therefore, there is a need to provide a high-strength wheel body for industrial casters to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a high-strength wheel body for industrial casters, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that solid wheel bodies increase the cost of industrial casters on the one hand, and increase the cost and difficulty of subsequent maintenance on the other hand.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] This utility model relates to a high-strength wheel body for industrial casters, comprising:
[0007] A wheel body, the wheel body including a hub and a connecting ring, the connecting ring being fixed to the middle of the inner side of the hub;
[0008] The connecting assembly includes an arc-shaped connecting plate, a support plate, a groove, and honeycomb holes. The arc-shaped connecting plate is fixed to the inner side of the wheel hub and is symmetrically distributed in a ring. The support plate is placed on the inner side of the wheel hub and fixed to the outer ring of the connecting ring, and fits against the inner side of the wheel hub. The groove is opened on the outer ring side of the support plate and is symmetrically distributed in a ring. The honeycomb holes are opened on the support plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the connecting assembly also includes a countersunk hole and a mounting hole, wherein the countersunk hole is formed on the arc-shaped connecting plate and the mounting hole is formed in the groove.
[0010] Furthermore, the arc-shaped connecting plate is embedded in the groove, and the support plate is located in the middle of the wheel hub.
[0011] Furthermore, the wheel body also includes a rubber rim and reinforcing ribs, the rubber rim being fitted onto the outside of the hub, and the reinforcing ribs being welded to the connecting ring and the support plate.
[0012] Furthermore, it also includes a limiting component, which includes a fixed plate and a T-shaped limiting rod. The fixed plate is fixed to the side of the support plate and located outside the groove, and the T-shaped limiting rod is movably connected to the middle of the fixed plate.
[0013] Furthermore, the limiting component also includes a through hole and a spring. The through hole is opened in the middle of the fixed plate, and the T-shaped limiting rod is inserted into the through hole. The spring is sleeved on one end of the T-shaped limiting rod, and one end of the spring is fixed to the side of the fixed plate and the other end is fixed to the T-shaped limiting rod.
[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are:
[0015] I. This utility model, through the setting of the connecting component, has honeycomb holes opened on the support plate and welded to the connecting ring. By holding the connecting ring, the support plate is pushed into the wheel hub, so that the groove is locked on the arc-shaped connecting plate. The screw passes through the countersunk hole and the mounting hole and is tightened to fix it. This setting adopts a honeycomb structure, which increases the wheel body's compressive strength and stability, thereby improving its strength and saving material costs.
[0016] II. In this utility model, by setting a limiting component, when installing the support plate, the fingers grasp the T-shaped limiting rod and pull it inward, so that the T-shaped limiting rod moves along the through hole and approaches the connecting ring, fixing the support plate on the arc-shaped connecting plate. Tighten the screws, loosen the T-shaped limiting rod, the spring contracts, and drives one end of the T-shaped limiting rod to move to the outside of the arc-shaped connecting plate. This setting can prevent the screws from loosening, which would cause the wheel to shake during movement. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The wheel body includes a hub 10 and a connecting ring 12, with the connecting ring 12 fixed to the middle of the inner side of the hub 10;
[0028] The wheel body also includes a rubber rim 11 and a reinforcing rib 13. The rubber rim 11 is fitted onto the outside of the hub 10, and the reinforcing rib 13 is welded to the connecting ring 12 and the support plate 22.
[0029] The hub 10 provides support, the rubber rim 11 provides shock absorption and protection, the connecting ring 12 is used to connect the caster bracket, and the reinforcing rib 13 provides reinforcement.
[0030] The connecting assembly includes an arc-shaped connecting plate 20, a support plate 22, a groove 23, and a honeycomb hole 25. The arc-shaped connecting plate 20 is fixed to the inner side of the wheel hub 10 and is symmetrically distributed in a ring. The support plate 22 is placed inside the wheel hub 10 and fixed to the outer ring of the connecting ring 12, and fits against the inner side of the wheel hub 10. The groove 23 is opened on the outer ring side of the support plate 22 and is symmetrically distributed in a ring. The honeycomb hole 25 is opened on the support plate 22.
[0031] The connecting assembly also includes a countersunk hole 21 and a mounting hole 24. The countersunk hole 21 is formed on the arc-shaped connecting plate 20, and the mounting hole 24 is formed in the groove 23.
[0032] The arc-shaped connecting plate 20 is embedded in the groove 23, and the support plate 22 is located in the middle of the hub 10;
[0033] The arc-shaped connecting plate 20 and the groove 23 serve as a connection, the countersunk hole 21 and the mounting hole 24 are used to fix the screws, the support plate 22 serves as a support, and the honeycomb hole 25 serves as a reinforcement.
[0034] Working principle:
[0035] A honeycomb hole 25 is made on the support plate 22 and welded to the connecting ring 12. Holding the connecting ring 12, the support plate 22 is pushed into the hub 10, so that the groove 23 is locked on the arc-shaped connecting plate 20. The screw passes through the countersunk hole 21 and the mounting hole 24 and is tightened to fix it.
[0036] This step employs a honeycomb structure to increase the wheel's compressive strength and stability, thereby improving its strength and saving material costs.
[0037] Please see Figure 3 This embodiment, based on the above embodiments, further includes:
[0038] The limiting assembly includes a fixed plate 30 and a T-shaped limiting rod 32. The fixed plate 30 is fixed to the side of the support plate 22 and is located outside the groove 23. The T-shaped limiting rod 32 is movably connected to the middle of the fixed plate 30.

The spring 33 is sleeved on one end of the T-shaped limiting rod 32, and one end of the spring 33 is fixed to the side of the fixing plate 30 and the other end is fixed to the T-shaped limiting rod 32.
[0040] The fixed plate 30 provides support, the through hole 31 facilitates the movement of the T-shaped limit rod 32, the T-shaped limit rod 32 provides a limiting function, and the spring 33 has a telescopic function.
[0041] Working principle:
[0042] When installing the support plate 22, grasp the T-shaped limiting rod 32 with your fingers and pull it inward, so that the T-shaped limiting rod 32 moves along the through hole 31 and approaches the connecting ring 12, fixing the support plate 22 on the arc-shaped connecting plate 20. Tighten the screws, loosen the T-shaped limiting rod 32, and the spring 33 retracts, causing one end of the T-shaped limiting rod 32 to move to the outside of the arc-shaped connecting plate 20.
[0043] This step prevents the screws from loosening, which could cause the wheels to wobble during movement.
