Whether it is daily storage or temporary replacement of pulleys, it can be easily handled.

[0015] 2. The mechanical limiting design of the hook and axle in this application, combined with the continuous downward pressure of the reset component on the axle, causes the pulley to automatically pop out when the axle is disengaged from the hook; when the pulley is extended, the hook and axle form a rigid lock, which greatly reduces the risk of the pulley loosening during sliding.

[0016] 3. The through hole on the bottom wall of the housing in this application cooperates with the sliding cover to achieve a sealing protection. When the sliding cover is closed, it can prevent dust and water stains from entering the receiving groove and extend the service life of the device.

[0017] 4. The base and shell of this application can be adapted to various shoe models, which facilitates mass production and personalized customization. It is not only suitable for Heelys, but can also be extended to scenarios such as suitcases and scooters that require lifting wheels, showing significant market potential.
