Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mobile wheel technology, and in particular to a detachable luggage corner wheel with self-locking function. Background Technology

[0002] In the current luggage industry, to improve the portability and ease of movement of luggage, wheels are usually installed at the bottom of the bag for easy dragging. However, existing corner wheel designs for luggage still have certain shortcomings.

[0003] Currently, most luggage corner wheels on the market adopt a fixed or simple detachable structure. However, fixed corner wheels are not easy to replace or repair during use, which affects the service life of the luggage. Some detachable corner wheels have a simpler structure, usually relying on threaded connections or buckle structures for fixation. During use, they are prone to loosening or falling off, reducing the stability and safety of use. In addition, the fixing methods of some existing detachable corner wheels are relatively complicated to disassemble and assemble, requiring tools for disassembly, which is inconvenient and affects the user experience.

[0004] To improve the stability and convenience of luggage corner wheels, some existing technologies use limiting devices to fix the wheels, such as limiting pins or locking structures in the wheel bearings, to prevent the wheels from accidentally falling off during use. However, after long-term use, such structures may fail due to friction and wear, affecting the normal function of the corner wheels. In addition, most existing locking mechanisms rely on elastic components, which are prone to deformation or damage due to long-term stress, thus reducing the locking effect.

[0005] In summary, existing detachable luggage corner wheels still have certain technical shortcomings in terms of stability, ease of assembly and disassembly, and durability. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a detachable luggage corner wheel with a reasonable structure and self-locking function to improve the stability of luggage movement and facilitate user assembly, disassembly, and replacement.

[0036] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a detachable luggage corner wheel with a self-locking function includes: a connecting seat 2 for connecting to the luggage, a movable wheel 3, a limiting piece 4, a switch 5, a first compression spring 6, and a cover plate 7. The connecting seat 2 has an accommodating space 21, and a connecting hole 22 communicating with the accommodating space 21. A connecting post 23 is provided at the bottom of the accommodating space 21. A through hole 24 communicating with the accommodating space 21 is opened on the bottom wall of the connecting seat 2. Near the through hole 24, a stepped structure 25 is provided on the bottom wall of the connecting seat 2. The stepped structure 25 has a first step Step 251, second step 252; the movable wheel 3 has a connecting rod 31, the connecting rod 31 is provided with an annular limiting groove 311, the connecting rod 31 can pass through the connecting hole 22, and the annular limiting groove 311 is set in the accommodating space 21; one end of the limiting piece 4 is rotatably connected to the connecting post 23, so that the limiting piece 4 rotates around the connecting post 23, the limiting piece 4 has a limiting part 41, and the limiting piece 4 is provided with an insertion hole 42; the switch 5 includes a button part 51, a self-locking part 52 and a connecting part 53, the button part 51 passes through the through hole 24, and can pass through the through hole The button portion 51 can move closer to or further away from the connecting hole 22, and the self-locking portion 52 can abut against the first step 251 or the second step 252. The connecting portion 53 passes through the socket 42 and can slide within the socket 42. The switch 5 can move between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the limiting portion 41 is located within the annular limiting groove 311, and the self-locking portion 52 abuts against the first step 251. In the second position, the limiting portion 41 disengages from the annular limiting groove 311, and the self-locking portion 52 abuts against the second step 251. On step 252, cover plate 7 is fixed on connecting seat 2 and closes accommodating space 21. Connecting part 53 has accommodating hole 531. Part of the first compression spring 6 is installed in accommodating hole 531 and the other end abuts against cover plate 7 so that button is in a state of moving towards cover plate 7. Cover plate 7 is fixed on connecting seat 2 and closes accommodating space 21. Connecting part 53 has accommodating hole 531. Part of the first compression spring 6 is installed in accommodating hole 531 and the other end abuts against cover plate 7 so that button is in a state of moving towards cover plate 7.

[0038] In this application, the corner wheel of the luggage achieves self-locking and disassembly functions through multiple internally cooperating structures. Specifically, when the user operates the button part 51, the button moves within the through hole 24, thereby driving the connecting part 53 and the self-locking part 52 to move together.

[0039] In the first position: the self-locking part 52 of the switch 5 abuts against the first step 251, and at the same time, the limiting part 41 on the limiting piece 4 is exactly in the annular limiting groove 311 on the connecting rod 31 of the moving wheel 3. In this state, the engagement of the limiting part 41 and the annular limiting groove 311 ensures the fixed connection between the moving wheel 3 and the connecting seat 2, so that the corner wheel is in a locked state, preventing accidental disassembly or movement during use.

[0040] In the second position: the button part 51 is pushed to a position away from the connecting hole 22, and the self-locking part 52 contacts the second step 252, causing the limiting piece 4 to rotate, so that the limiting part 41 on it disengages from the annular limiting groove 311. At this time, the connection between the moving wheel 3 and the connecting seat 2 is released from the self-locking state, thereby realizing the disassembly of the corner wheel, which is convenient for maintenance, cleaning or replacement of parts.

[0041] When switch 5 moves from the second position to the first position, button part 51 moves toward connecting rod 31 until the limiting part 41 on the limiting piece 4 is engaged in the annular limiting groove 311 of connecting rod 31. Under the action of the first compression spring 6, switch 5 automatically moves away from cover plate 7 and the self-locking part 52 on switch 5 abuts against the first step 251, thereby achieving self-locking.

[0042] Specifically, the second step 252 is closer to the cover plate 7 than the first step 251.

[0043] Specifically, a limiting structure 71 is provided on the cover plate 7. In the first position, the limiting structure 71 and the limiting part 41 are located on both sides of the connecting rod 31.

[0044] When the limiting structure 71 on the cover plate 7 is symmetrically distributed with the limiting parts 41 on both sides of the connecting seat 2, it can bear the external force more evenly, reduce the problem of uneven force on one side, and thus improve the stability of the overall structure.

[0045] Specifically, the button part 51 and the connecting part 53 are distributed at both ends of the switch 5, and the self-locking part 52 is provided in the middle of the switch 5.

[0046] Specifically, it also includes a second compression spring 8, one end of which is connected to the limiting plate 4 and the other end is connected to the inner wall of the accommodating space 21, so that the limiting plate 4 rotates toward the connecting rod 31.

[0047] When the second position moves toward the first position, the user only needs to release the switch 5. Under the action of the second pressure spring 8, the self-locking part 52 of the switch 5 can automatically disengage from the second step 252 and automatically enter the first adjustment 251. Thus, the limiting part 41 on the switch 5 automatically enters the annular limiting groove 311 for locking and limiting.

[0048] Specifically, the limiting part 41 has a recessed surface 411 that adapts to the bottom surface of the annular groove, and the recessed surface 411 can fit the bottom surface of the annular groove.

[0049] The fit between the concave surface 411 and the bottom surface of the annular groove increases the contact area between the limiting part 41 and the annular limiting groove 311, thereby increasing the portion of the limiting part 41 that is engaged in the annular limiting groove 311. During the use of the bag, even if it is subjected to a large external impact, vibration or frequent turning force, the moving wheel 3 can be more stably connected to the connecting seat 2, effectively reducing the possibility of the moving wheel 3 shaking, displacing or even detaching relative to the connecting seat 2, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the bag's movement.
