Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, and in particular relates to an instrument holder. Background Technology

[0002] Medical instrument racks are devices used in hospitals to support, fix, and store various medical instruments and equipment. There are many types of medical instrument racks, and different types of medical instrument racks have their own characteristics in design and function to meet the needs of different medical scenarios and instruments and equipment.

[0003] Current medical instrument racks include both fixed and movable types. Movable racks typically have four corners, each with a wheel to facilitate movement. When movement is not required, one wheel is braked to prevent the rack from moving. This braking method is common, but while it provides some braking, it is not suitable for lighter racks as the braking effect is weak, and the rack will still move under considerable force. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the aforementioned technical problems by providing an instrument rack that improves the stability of the instrument rack.

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides an instrument rack, comprising:

[0006] A frame, on which a carrying platform is provided;

[0007] A pulley assembly, the pulley assembly including an enlarged plate, one end of the enlarged plate being connected to a connecting pipe, the connecting pipe being fixedly connected to the frame, and multiple traveling wheels being arranged in the enlarged plate along the circumferential direction, the lower ends of the traveling wheels extending beyond the lower edge of the enlarged plate;

[0008] A braking assembly for synchronously braking the traveling wheels.

[0009] In this technical solution, by installing multiple wheels in the inner cavity of the enlarged lower cover, the frame can be kept stable with a small footprint. The braking assembly can synchronously brake the wheels, which can improve the stability of the instrument frame after braking.

[0010] Furthermore, the braking assembly includes:

[0011] A sliding tube, which is slidably disposed within a connecting tube;

[0012] The brake disc is fixedly connected to the lower end of the sliding tube and covered inside the enlarged disc. The brake disc is located within a cylindrical space surrounded by multiple traveling wheels. The outer periphery of the brake disc is conical. The maximum diameter of the outer periphery of the brake disc is smaller than the diameter of the cylindrical space, and the minimum diameter of the outer periphery of the brake disc is smaller than the diameter of the cylindrical space.

[0013] A switching component is used to control the up-and-down movement of the sliding tube, so that the brake disc switches between being in contact with and away from the traveling wheel.

[0014] In this technical solution, the switching component controls the sliding tube to move up and down, causing the brake disc to move up and down. The brake disc will gradually move downward until its outer circumference is in close contact with the outer circumference of the traveling wheel. This allows all brake discs to brake simultaneously, making operation more convenient and providing better braking effect.

[0015] Furthermore, the switching component includes:

[0016] A switching lever is located at the end of the sliding tube furthest from the brake disc.

[0017] A brake groove is provided at the end of the connecting pipe away from the enlarged disc, and the shape of the brake groove matches the shape of the switching lever.

[0018] The free groove is formed by an extension piece extending from the end of the connecting tube. The shape of the free groove matches the shape of the switching lever, and the free groove is offset from the brake groove.

[0019] In this technical solution, when switching is required, the switching lever is lifted and rotated to the position above the corresponding brake groove or free groove, and then the switching lever is lowered so that it is engaged in the brake groove or free groove.

[0020] Furthermore, magnets are provided at corresponding positions on the braking groove, the free groove, and the magnet.

[0021] Furthermore, a return spring is provided between the brake disc and the enlarged disc, and the return spring always has the motion drive to push the brake disc towards the bottom surface.

[0022] In this technical solution, the combination of magnets and return springs allows the brake disc to press down on the bottom surface more forcefully and stably.

[0023] Furthermore, a friction post is provided at the end of the brake disc facing the bottom surface.

[0024] Furthermore, the friction column is made of a flexible elastomer material.

[0025] In this technical solution, the friction column is made of rubber or silicone resin, which can generate frictional resistance when the frame tends to move.

[0026] Furthermore, the brake disc is equipped with a weighted lead block.

[0027] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0028] 1. By installing multiple wheels in the inner cavity of the enlarged disc cover, the frame can be kept stable with a small footprint. The braking assembly can brake the wheels synchronously, which can improve the stability of the instrument frame after braking.

[0029] 2. Switching the component controls the sliding tube to move the brake disc up and down. The brake disc will gradually move downward until its outer circumference is in close contact with the outer circumference of the travel wheel. This allows all brake discs to brake simultaneously, making operation more convenient and providing better braking effect.

[0030] 3. The combination of magnets and return springs allows the brake disc to press down on the bottom surface more forcefully and stably. Attached Figure Description

[0048] By installing multiple wheels 6 in the inner cavity of the cover under the enlarged disc 4, the frame 1 can be kept stable with a small footprint. The braking assembly 7 can brake the wheels 6 synchronously, which can improve the stability of the instrument frame after braking.

[0049] The braking assembly 7 includes:
