However, the wheel fixing device with the above structure uses an oil cylinder with high cost, the support frame, the lifting plate and the two swing arms are all protruding and have large volumes, resulting in high cost of the wheel fixing device with the above structure. SUMMARY
[0005] The utility model aims at the above problems existing in the prior art, and provides a driving locking structure of wheel fixer, which solves the technical problem of how to reduce the cost and ensure the fixing effect.
[0006] The utility model discloses a drive locking structure of a wheel fixer, which comprises a chassis and two swing arms in a right angle, the bottom ends of the two swing arms are hingedly connected to the chassis, and the drive locking structure comprises a rotating shaft arranged in the chassis and capable of rotating in the axial direction and rotating in the circumferential direction, a first transmission plate and a ratchet wheel arranged on the rotating shaft, a second transmission plate, a third transmission plate and a pawl hingedly connected to the chassis at one end, the rotating shaft is located between the two swing arms, the two ends of the first transmission plate are hingedly connected to the bottom ends of the two swing arms through the second transmission plate and the third transmission plate, and the other end of the pawl abuts against the ratchet wheel.
[0007] When loading the vehicle, the operator rotates the rotating shaft, the rotating shaft rotates to drive the two swing arms to simultaneously move inward and close to the wheel through the second transmission plate and the third transmission plate, the swing arms abut against the wheel, the combination of the ratchet wheel and the pawl enables the rotating shaft to rotate in only one direction, the swing arms cannot be loosened due to the ratchet wheel and the pawl, and the wheel is locked and positioned.
[0008] In the drive locking structure of the wheel fixer, the bottom ends of the two swing arms are bent outward to form obtuse angles, the swing arms are hingedly connected to the chassis at the corners of the bottom ends, and the second transmission plate and the third transmission plate are hingedly connected to the ends of the bottom ends of the two swing arms. The swing arm has the structure, which is equivalent to increasing the swing angle of the swing arm, so that the overall transmission structure can be relatively small, and the cost is reduced.
[0009] In the drive locking structure of the wheel fixer, two hinge shafts are hingedly arranged in the chassis, the bottom ends of the two swing arms are fixedly connected to the two hinge shafts, the two hinge shafts are parallel to the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is located in the middle of the two hinge shafts. The structure enables the swing arms to rotate smoothly and makes the chassis have sufficient strength at the position, so that the fixing effect of the wheel is ensured.
[0010] As another case, in the above-mentioned drive locking structure of the vehicle wheel fixer, two hinge shafts are fixed in the chassis, the bottom ends of the two swing arms are respectively hinged to the two hinge shafts, the two hinge shafts are parallel to the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is located at the middle of the two hinge shafts. This structure makes the swing arm rotate smoothly while the chassis has sufficient strength at this position, ensuring the fixing effect of the vehicle wheel.
[0011] In the above-mentioned drive locking structure of the vehicle wheel fixer, the outer end of the rotating shaft is fixed with a rotating disc, the rotating disc is located outside the chassis, the ratchet wheel and the pawl are located between the rotating disc and the chassis, and a plurality of rotating tubes are arranged at equal intervals on the rotating disc and in the radial direction of the rotating disc. This structure makes the ratchet wheel and the pawl not easily disturbed by the outside world, reasonably utilizes the space, and provides the rotating rod with the rotating tube for penetration. The rotating shaft can be rotated by using the lever principle, the swing arm rotates smoothly, and the cost is low compared with the oil cylinder.
[0012] In the above-mentioned drive locking structure of the vehicle wheel fixer, the first transmission plate, the second transmission plate and the third transmission plate are located in the chassis and are arranged close to the inner side wall of the chassis. This structure avoids the contact between the first transmission plate, the second transmission plate and the third transmission plate and other parts as much as possible, and makes the drive locking structure stable.
[0013] In the above-mentioned drive locking structure of the vehicle wheel fixer, the cross section of the rotating shaft is a regular polygon. This structure ensures the circumferential rotation of the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft does not have the problem of slipping.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the drive locking structure of the vehicle wheel fixer has the following advantages:
[0015] 1. The swing arm of the vehicle wheel fixer is directly hinged to the chassis, without the need to set a support frame, and the oil cylinder is not used for driving. The ratchet wheel and the pawl are mature technologies, and the cost is low, thereby reducing the cost. After the swing arm is locked by the ratchet wheel and the pawl, the swing arm will not be loosened in the reverse direction, and the fixing effect of the vehicle wheel is ensured.
[0016] 2. The vehicle wheel fixer realizes one-way locking through the ratchet wheel and the pawl, and realizes rotation through the rotating disc. The structure is simple, and the cost is reduced. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
