Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 This utility model discloses a caster device for a tent support tube, comprising a base 2 and a caster mechanism. The base 2 is installed at the bottom of the tent support tube 1. The caster mechanism includes a caster bracket 3 and rollers 4 installed on the caster bracket 3. The rollers 4 are located on the side of the base 2, and the caster mechanism is connected to the base 2. The caster device has a simple structure and is easy and quick to install. During packaging, because the caster mechanism is only installed when in use, it is less likely to damage the cardboard box during transportation. When in use, the caster mechanism can be quickly installed on the base. When it is necessary to move the folded tent, simply tilt the tent support tube 1 towards the rollers 4, so that the rollers 4 contact the ground, and the folded tent can be dragged or pushed. It requires little effort to carry and is convenient to use. When in use, the large contact area between the base and the ground provides stable tent support, resulting in good performance and a good consumer experience.

[0024] In this embodiment, the caster bracket 3 is detachably mounted on the base 2. Alternatively, the caster bracket 3 can be integrally formed with the base 2.

[0025] The caster bracket 3 is snapped or plugged into the base 2, making the installation of the caster mechanism quicker and more convenient. At the same time, the caster bracket 3 can also be installed on the base 2 with screws.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the caster bracket 3 is inserted into the base 2. The caster bracket 3 has a insertion post 5, and the base 2 has an insertion hole 6 for the insertion post 5 to be inserted into. The insertion post 5 and the insertion hole 6 are interference-fitted to achieve a fixed connection between the caster bracket 3 and the base 2. The upper part of the insertion post 5 gradually increases in size from top to bottom, which facilitates the stable insertion of the insertion post 5 into the insertion hole 6, and the force on the connection gradually increases, resulting in a stable connection. The insertion post 5 can be round, square, or other shapes. A round insertion post 5 is easy to insert, while a square insertion post 5 provides stability and prevents the caster bracket 3 from rotating. The insertion hole 6 is a post hole, which makes the insertion more stable.

[0027] In this embodiment, the plug-in post 5 is inserted from the bottom surface of the base 2. Alternatively, the plug-in post 5 can be inserted from the side of the base 2.

[0028] In another specific implementation, the caster bracket 3 is snapped onto the base 2. The caster bracket 3 is provided with a hook, and the base 2 is provided with a corresponding slot, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the caster bracket 3 and the base 2. The hook can be snapped into the base 2 from the top downwards, or from the bottom upwards, or from opposite sides of the base 2.

[0029] The bottom of the base 2 is provided with a positioning connection groove 7, and the top of the caster bracket 3 is provided with a positioning connection block 8 corresponding to the positioning connection groove 7. The positioning connection groove 7 and the positioning connection block 8 enable the caster bracket 3 and the base 2 to achieve quick positioning, installation, and stable connection. In one specific implementation, the positioning connection groove 7 is T-shaped, the base 2 is a right-angled triangle, the positioning connection block 8 is a right-angled triangle, the inner side of the positioning connection block 8 is provided with a right-angled triangular connection groove 9, and the bottom of the base 2 is provided with a right-angled triangular connection block 10 corresponding to the right-angled triangular connection groove 9. This allows the caster bracket 3 to be installed on one side or the other side of the right angle of the base 2, depending on the actual usage direction of the caster 4, making it more convenient to use. Of course, the positioning connection groove 7 and the positioning connection block 8 can be square or other shapes.

[0030] The caster bracket is equipped with a backing plate 12. One side of the backing plate 12 is subjected to the force of the base 2 or the tent support tube 1, and the roller 4 is located on the other side of the backing plate 12. The caster bracket 3 provides more stable support to the base 2, making it easier to drag or push the folded tent and preventing the caster bracket 3 from deforming under stress.

[0031] In one specific implementation, a connecting sleeve 11 is installed on the outer side of the bottom of the tent support tube 1, and an abutment plate 12 abuts against the connecting sleeve 11, increasing the force-bearing area between the caster bracket 3 and the tent support tube 1, making the caster bracket 3 support the base 2 more stably, and making dragging or pushing the folded tent more stable, avoiding deformation or even breakage of the caster bracket 3 under force. In another specific implementation, a force-bearing plate is provided on the outer edge of the base 2 to abut against the abutment plate 12, and the abutment plate 12 abuts against the force-bearing plate to improve the stability of the caster bracket 3 in use.

[0032] The caster bracket 3 is equipped with a mounting protection plate 13 for mounting the rollers 4. The mounting protection plate 13 has screw mounting holes 14. The rollers 4 are mounted on the mounting protection plate 13 by screws 15 and locking nuts 16, which facilitates quick and secure installation of the rollers 4. The shape of the mounting protection plate 13 is adapted to the side of the rollers 4, effectively protecting the rollers 4 from external contact.

[0033] The top of the base 2 is provided with a sleeve post 17 for the tent support tube 1 to be fitted and installed, so that the base 2 can be stably fitted onto the tent support tube 1. The plug post 5 is inserted into the inside of the sleeve post 17, making the connection of the plug post 5 more stable and the caster bracket 3 more stable to install.

[0034] The upper part of the sleeve post 17 gradually increases in size from top to bottom, which is conducive to the stability of the tent support tube 1. The force connection gradually increases, making the connection more secure. The upper part of the sleeve post 17 is provided with a connecting groove 18 and a connecting hole 19. The connecting hole 19 allows the sleeve post 17 to be connected to the tent support tube 1 by connecting screws, connecting nails, or positioning nails, making the connection more secure. The connecting groove 18 facilitates the guiding installation of the sleeve post 17, making the installation of the base 2 more stable.

[0035] The bottom of the base 2 is provided with reinforcing ribs 20, which saves production costs and improves the structural strength of the base 2. The base 2 is provided with bolt mounting holes 21, which makes it convenient for the base 2 to be fixed to the ground by bolts.

[0036] The bottom surface of base 2 is flush with the bottom surface of caster bracket 3, and the bottom surface of roller 4 is flush with the bottom surface of caster bracket 3. When in use, base 2, caster bracket 3 and roller 4 are all in contact with the ground, which improves the stability of the tent support and has a good effect.

[0037] Both the base 2 and the caster bracket 3 are made of plastic, which is low in manufacturing cost, easy to install, durable and stable.

[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
