Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of omnidirectional wheel technology, specifically to a liftable omnidirectional double wheel. Background Technology
[0002] As a common mechanical component, casters are widely used in various equipment, furniture, and tools to enable easy movement and steering. Existing casters are usually fixed in place. If they need to stop during use, friction blocks on them need to contact the wheel body to increase the friction force, thereby stopping the wheel.
[0003] This braking method is prone to wear and tear on the friction blocks with prolonged use, resulting in poor braking performance and inability to complete braking operations in a timely manner. The lifespan of the casters is also relatively short.
[0004] Therefore, a type of height-adjustable omnidirectional double wheel is needed to improve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a height-adjustable universal double wheel to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A liftable omnidirectional double-wheel design includes a bracket and a lifting plate. The upper end of the bracket is rotatably connected to the lifting plate via a connecting shaft. The lower end of the bracket has waist-shaped grooves on both sides, with a mounting shaft positioned between these grooves. A set of wheels is mounted in the middle of the mounting shaft. Connecting pieces are located at both ends of the mounting shaft. One end of each connecting piece is rotatably connected to the lower end of the lifting plate, and the other end of each connecting piece is sleeved on the outside of the mounting shaft. An elastic connector is provided between the connecting piece and the lifting plate. A mounting hole is located at the end of the bracket furthest from the lifting plate. A bearing seat is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting hole, and an adjustable support assembly is fitted inside the mounting hole. A tightening nut is threaded onto the outer side of the adjustable support assembly, and the tightening nut abuts against the lower end of the mounting hole.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a fixing pin b is fixedly connected to the middle of the connecting piece, and a fixing pin a is fixedly connected to the side of the lifting and lowering plate. Both the fixing pin b and the fixing pin a have hook holes at their ends.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the elastic connector is a spring, and hooks are provided at both ends of the spring. The hooks at both ends are respectively engaged with the hook holes at the ends of the fixing pin b and the fixing pin a.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, limit pins are fixedly connected to both sides of the bracket to limit the displacement of the connecting piece.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the adjustable support assembly includes a main rivet that is inserted into the bearing seat. The upper end of the main rivet is fixedly connected to an upper plate. The lower end of the upper plate has a threaded hole. An adjustable lifting rod is threadedly connected inside the threaded hole, and the lower end of the adjustable lifting rod is provided with a rotatable foot.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the lower end of the rotatable foot is provided with a silent and anti-static foot pad.
[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a bearing is provided between the bearing housing and the upper plate and the main rivet.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] In this invention, the wheel body can be raised and lowered by the linkage of the lifting and lowering plate and the connecting piece. When the wheel body is raised, it is supported by the adjustable support component to achieve braking. When the wheel body is lowered, it continues to slide after contacting the ground. Compared with existing universal wheels, it can maintain the braking effect continuously and extend its service life. Attached Figure Description
