Castor Wheel
The present invention relates to a castor wheel assembly comprising a wheel member and a castor wheel housing upon which a transition member, such as a spindle assembly or a flange assembly, may be mounted which may in turn be mounted on equipment to be mobile which is unilaterally mounted and mounted around a essentially horizontal shaft on castor wheel housing.
Castor wheels are also known as machine wheels and are wheels which, in addition to the wheel part itself, comprise a mounting part which is typically standardized. Thus, the wheel is a component that is generally interchangeable with other similar wheels. There are basically two types of castor wheels. One has a swivel so that the wheel can swing freely, and it can be provided with a brake on both the wheel itself and on the swivel, and in the other type the shaft of the castor wheel is fixedly mounted, and it can also be provided with a brake on the wheel itself.
Generally, castor wheels are used to increase the mobility of many different types of objects, such as different types of machines, for example, mixing machines, filling machines and machines and appliances with functions to be used in several places, as well as conveyor belts, racks and work tables. Other areas where castor wheels are frequently used are, for example, mobile hospital beds, rollers, vacuum cleaners and other mobile devices.
The castor wheel is a swivel wheel (not a steering wheel) typically used to manually move equipment by pushing it at a speed that does not normally exceed the walking speed, and typically the castor wheel is not used for continuously moving equipment.
DK 2018 70140 A1
Common to existing castor wheels is that they are not suitable for use in areas with special hygiene requirements as the pairs of movement which they must invariably contain are not secured against the ingress of dirt and germ-filled material, making existing wheels very difficult to clean completely and therefore could always pose a contamination risk in, for example, hospital environments and in laboratories or in the food industry, where the focus is also on the transport paths and habitats of microorganisms.
It is thus the object of the present invention to provide a preferably maintenance-free castor wheel assembly which is hygienically properly designed and preferably meets the standards which may lead to hygienic approval of the product in accordance with guidelines of, for example, EHEDG, 3-A and USDA.
The above-mentioned objects are achieved by means of a castor wheel assembly of the type mentioned above, comprising a wheel part and a castor wheel housing on which a transition element, such as a spindle structure or a flange structure, which can in turn be mounted on equipment to be made mobile, can be mounted. wheel part is unilaterally suspended and mounted around a substantially horizontal shaft of the castor wheel housing. The castor wheel structure is characterized in that it comprises a seal between the transition element and the upper part of the castor wheel housing as well as a seal between the wheel part and the castor wheel housing, which seals are formed with contours adapted to the structure and thus substantially ensure continuous surfaces.
Hereby, the interior of the structure is sealed so that no material can be exchanged between the interior and exterior of the castor wheel structure. Thus, a maintenance-free construction is obtained which does not emit hygienically problematic substances to the environment. Furthermore, the continuous surfaces obtained ensure that the structure can be easily cleaned and there is as little risk as possible to build up dirt and coatings on the structure.
DK 2018 70140 A1
According to claim 2, the seal between the wheel part and the castor wheel housing is fixedly mounted on either the wheel part or the castor housing and has sliding abutments against the other part. Thus, it is possible to mount the seal on the wheel part and have sliding systems against the castor housing or mount the seal on the castor housing and have sliding systems against the wheel part.
A preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the seal between the wheel part and the castor wheel housing is formed as a tongue which is an integral part of the wheel path. Hereby a simple and functional construction is obtained, which with a few individual parts helps to fulfill the object of the invention.
When the transition element is a spindle construction, according to a preferred embodiment, it must be provided with a sealing ring which seals between the spindle and a transition piece which is also provided with a seal. Hereby the connection to the equipment to be made mobile can also be made hygienic.
However, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that a hygienic seal is also provided at the upper thread by which the spindle assembly is attached to the equipment.
When the transition element is a flange structure, according to another preferred embodiment, it must be provided with a seal between the flange itself and the equipment, and a seal is mounted beneath the flange, which flange is secured by nuts with seals placed thereon. This ensures, in the same way as above, that the connection to the equipment to be made mobile is hygienic.
Advantageously, the seals are located at the periphery at the junctions and are formed with surfaces that provide smooth, soft transitions, and most of the seals are activated and held in place by being held in place with pressure.
GB 2018 70140 A1 tracks and cavities in which they are mounted. This provides surfaces that are easy to clean and inspect.
It is also advantageous that all outer surfaces are smooth (Ra max. 0.8 μ), self-draining and provided with a radius of radius of at least 3.2 mm. This ensures that some of the formal requirements for obtaining hygienic approval are met.
According to the invention, internal braking of the wheel can be achieved. For this purpose, the castor wheel assembly comprises a brake shaft with mounted pedal arm, which brake shaft is provided with a seal which ensures sealing between the brake shaft and the castor wheel housing.
It is advantageous that the brake shaft can function either to enable braking of the wheel movement or of the pivot movement or of both movements.
The aforementioned braking may be effected by the brake shaft being connected to a camshaft capable of activating and deactivating a paling system which, in connection with index plates, can lock the wheel movement and / or the pivot movement, respectively.
This provides a very precise and safe braking of the wheel's movements. With proper sizing, the wheel will have to rotate or roll a very small distance (for example 2-4 mm) during the application of the brake in order to apply the braking.
According to the invention, it is advantageous that the camshaft actively ensures both activation and deactivation of the braking systems, which comprises a wheel spring arm and a wheel index arm, by means of a scenic control of the wheel spring arm and the wheel index arm. This ensures that the brakes cannot hang.
DK 2018 70140 A1
Advantageously, the wheel spring arm and the wheel index arm are provided with pawls for engagement with the index plates and preferably with enclosing springs which assist in properly activating the braking systems and which provide the user with appropriate tactile feedback when the brake is activated and deactivated.
In a preferred embodiment, the brake shaft is provided with a fitted solid end stop which restricts the swing both when activating and deactivating the brake, and which further ensures that the brake shaft cannot be pulled out. This embodiment ensures that the structure is capable of absorbing large forces, for example up to 2000 N, and the brake shaft is held in place within the structure.
The pedal arm may advantageously be provided with a long and a short arm, the long arm being used to activate the brake by turning the shaft clockwise and the short arm being used to deactivate the brake by turning the shaft counterclockwise. This gives a natural feeling of how the user should activate and deactivate the brake.
In the preferred embodiments of the invention, the sealing rings are made of NBR or silicone, and the wheel coating, which also acts as a seal, is made of a polyurethane material or NBR or thermoplastic rubber.
It is also advantageous that the wheel housing, the spindle, the flange and the brake arm with the shaft are made of stainless steel 304, which is a suitable material for hygienic designs, to which also demands strength.

FIG. 1-6 illustrate various practical embodiments of castor wheel designs of the present invention. FIG. 1-3 show embodiments with spindle attachment; and FIG. 4-6 show flange attachment embodiments. FIG. 1 and 4 show castor wheel assemblies with brake; FIG. Figures 2 and 5 show designs without brake and with freely rotating wheels, and Figs. 3 and 6 show designs with castor wheels that cannot rotate. It is not possible to see from the outside the difference between the two types in Figs. 2 and 5 and in FIG. 3 and 6, but the difference is that the swivel or pivot movement is locked in the latter type.
FIG. 7 shows an example of a castor wheel assembly according to the invention.
The castor wheel assembly consists of the following parts: A spindle assembly 1 or flange assembly 2 and a castor wheel assembly 3. The spindle or flange is selected according to how you wish to attach the castor wheel assembly. The spindle 1 allows for height adjustment, but otherwise the function is the same regardless of the attachment method chosen. Both the spindle and flange structure are designed as hygienic elements and the spindle can be provided with a cover so that there is no free thread. All surfaces in the illustrated embodiment have a Ra of max. 0.8 µ.
DK 2018 70140 A1
In FIG. 8, the spindle structure with the spindle 5 itself is shown in an exploded view. Reference numeral 4 denotes a sleeve, and reference numeral 6 shows a sealing ring sealing between the spindle 5 and a transition piece 7 also provided with a pivot seal.
8. Attach the transition piece with threads to the spindle, and it is preferable that the thread be secured against loosening by a form of thread retention, such as Loctite®.
In FIG. 9, the flange structure is shown in exploded view. The reference numeral 9 indicates the seal between the flange 10 itself and the equipment to be made mobile. Underneath the flange 10 a pivot scraper 11 is mounted. The flange is fastened by means of hygienic nuts 13 with seals placed thereon 12.
The wheel itself is shown in FIG. 10. It is mounted on the castor wheel assembly by means of a wheel bearing assembly 16, which is secured with an axle locking ring 17. The wheel 18 is shown here both from the outside and from the inside. The choice of rental for the construction is of great importance in terms of price and use. In addition to the tire track, wheel diameter and pivot bearing, the wheel bearings play a crucial role in maneuverability and thus the quality of the castor wheel. Of course, different requirements are set for the wheels to be used as home furniture wheels and those to be used in commercial establishments. Likewise, various other requirements are set for the wheels under waste containers, hospital beds and, for example, shopping carts, and quite different requirements for the wheels used to carry heavy loads at a factory, and it is crucial that the choice of bearing is adapted to the current application. .
For the sake of avoiding static electricity which can cause discomfort to the users when the plastic is charged by friction and the charged voltage cannot be discharged and the discharge then takes place through the user, the construction is provided
DK 2018 70140 A1 advantageously with electrically conductive wheels with a deflection resistance of less than 10,000 ohms. This also ensures that the risk of explosion, for example due to ignition of explosive gases and explosive dust, can be minimized.
In FIG. 11 is a cross-sectional view with enlargement of the mounted wheel, and in FIG. 12 it is shown how the bearings 19 are inserted into the outer ring 16. It can be seen from the detail B that a ring bead, which in cross-section is formed as a wedge with a bar, in the outside of the bearing ring 16. The bead creates a groove which, when the bearing ring 16 is pressed in, is formed in the inside of the hub of the wheel. After this, the bead acts as a barbs, ensuring that the parts cannot be separated immediately.
As stated above, the choice of rental must be adapted to the current intended use. In the preferred embodiment, two groove ball bearings are used which ensure the best relationship between rolling resistance and bearing capacity. Angular contact ball bearings, roller bearings or plain bearings can also be used.
Angular contact ball bearings and roller bearings are used when special demands are made, while the sliding bearing will be the cheapest solution that can be used for equipment that needs to be moved at low speed and over short distances.
As can be seen in FIG. 13, the coating on the wheel hub has a dual function. It acts both as a tire and as a seal. As shown in detail A, one side of the tire is provided with a tongue extending towards the wheel housing to protect against moisture and other contamination. It must be ensured that the system pressure is so low that the rolling resistance is not significantly affected, but so large that the density is ensured.
The base parts of a wheel housing 28 with braking function are shown in the exploded view of FIG. 14. When installing the parts in the wheel housing 28 the parts are set
DK 2018 70140 A1 is grouped together as follows: The wheel index pawl 29 with spring 20 is mounted in the wheel housing together with a pull-out auxiliary spring 34. The group consisting of a camshaft 33 with two flat arms, the wheel spring arm 32 and the wheel index arm 23, is then assembled with a wheel index bearing pin 24 inserted. All the parts are laid down in the wheel housing 28. Then the wheel index bearing pin 24 is tightened with a screw 25. Then an index pivot spring 40 is inserted over an index pivot arm 39 which is inserted into the leg housing until it catches a pin on the camshaft 33. Then the lock plate 30 is screwed in place. with a screw 31 for holding the index pivot arm 39 and camshaft 33 in the housing. Next, a pin screw 21 is screwed into an end stop 22 which is inserted into the wheel housing 28. Then a pedal / shaft seal 26 is inserted over a pedal / shaft assembly. The two parts that comprise the pedal / axle construction, viz. pedal and shaft, for example, are combined with a multi-note and Loctite®, but it is possible to use other joining methods, such as cone and tap. Thereafter, the pedal / shaft assembly 27 is pushed into the wheel housing until the shaft nut has caught the end stop and cam shaft 33. Then the upper part, which is the torque on which the spindle or flange is to be mounted, is missing. The parts of the rotary ring are shown in FIG. 15. Before mounting the turntable, place the parts on top of each other. At the bottom is placed a needle bearing 37, and on top of it is placed an index pivot disk 38 and then another needle bearing, and above it is placed the pivot top disk. When the other groups are mounted in the wheel housing, the crane assembly is screwed onto the upper part of the wheel housing by means of a submerged screw 35.
In FIG. 16, the individual main parts of the structure are shown. At the top of the assembled wheelhouse assembly, either a spindle assembly 1 or a flange assembly 2 may be mounted and optionally retained with a thread lock, such as Loctite®, applied where indicated by the large arrow. When the wheel assembly is clicked, the castor wheel assembly is ready for use.
The total castor wheel assembly has the following features. The brake can be activated by pressing the long part of the pedal arm 27. In Fig. 17, the pedal arm is shown in the unlocked position. During the first part of the movement is
DK 2018 70140 A1 that has some resilient resistance, then a little more firm resistance will feel, and eventually there will be a sense of locking in a notch. The attainment of the particular feeling at each step will be described in detail below.
The brake is deactivated by pressing the short part of the pedal arm. In FIG. 18, the pedal arm is shown in the locked position. At the first part of the movement there is little resistance and then a feeling of a resilient back hop. The attainment of the particular feel of the individual steps of deactivation will also be described in detail below, together with an explanation of how the brake actually works and how it can withstand violent influences from all sides without slipping or dropping.
For both wheel and pivot brakes, when activated, there is a possibility that they can lock rotation with a pawl between index teeth and index holes in the wheel. If they do not do so immediately, a slight displacement will cause the paw to lock and lock. The wheel brake curb corresponds to +/- 1/2% or +/- 0.57 degrees before total locking. When the brake is deactivated, the pawl is pulled out with the pivot movement, but not at the first part of the movement, as the pawl gets help to be pulled out. This process will also be explained in the following.
Referring now to FIG. 19, where the function of the end stop 22 will be explained. When braking, the pedal is activated by a person who with his foot presses the long pedal arm down. The movement and force is carried through the shaft to the end stop. This force can be quite powerful and the design is designed for an expected pressure of 2000 N. The end stop 22 is therefore equipped with a manifold that can transfer the large forces to the wheel housing. The end stop has an additional function which consists of locking the pedal shaft in the axial direction, which is done with the pin screw after mounting.
DK 2018 70140 A1
Referring to FIG. 20 (activation) and FIG. 21 (deactivation), the function of the index arm 25 and the auxiliary pile 24 will now be explained. Upon actuation, a pressure on the long pedal arm will result in the pedal / shaft executing a pivotal movement (A) clockwise and the top shaft of the camshaft pressing (B) against the index arm, which rotates (C) around the index bearing pin 24 and removes the pressure from the index wheel. pal 29. Press the pawl (D) of the spring toward the index wheel and will, when possible, lock into the lock and lock the wheel. The pivot movement constantly receives resistance (E) from the index spring arm 32 behind the index arm 23, and this gives users a feeling of locking something. If the auxiliary is greater than the resistance by pushing out the index wheel's pawl 29, the camshaft's pawl functions only as a lock when the brake is applied.
As shown in FIG. 21, a push on the short pedal arm will result in the pedal / shaft performing a pivotal movement (A) counterclockwise and the camshaft's paw pressing (B) against the index arm which rotates (C) about the index bearing pin 24 and pressing (D) on the index wheel pal 29 which is pushed out of the index wheel. The pivot movement always receives help (E) from the index spring arm 32 behind the index arm 23. If the auxiliary is greater than the resistance by pushing out the index wheel's pawl 29, the camshaft's pawl will only act as a lock when the brake is deactivated.
Referring now to FIG. 22, where the function of the spring arm 32 will be explained. The spring arm 32 rotates about the camshaft and pedal / shaft without having any connection other than the shaft being used as the shaft. The spring 34 presses against the arm at one end and thus transmits a corresponding pressure to the other end against the index arm 23, which in turn presses the index wheel pal 29.
In FIG. 23, it is shown that the pedal for activating locking by means of the index pivot arm 39 is rotated clockwise, thereby turning the camshaft 33 also clockwise and the pawls will try to notch and when they do, both the pivot and the wheel will be locked. The spring 40 has provided resistance and has become
DK 2018 70140 A1 tightened until the end position, where the spring holds the pedal in the outer position clockwise. The end stop is designed so powerful that it can withstand full load from the user.
To deactivate locking by means of the index pivot arm, turn the pedal as shown in FIG. 24, counterclockwise, first forcing the pivot pole and then the auxiliary pole. The spring helps with the movement. As above, the heavily designed end stop ensures full load from the user can withstand.
In the present construction, a hygienic construction can be obtained with a minimum number of seals. A seal is required for the spindle solution 1) between equipment and spindle sleeve, 2) between spindle and pivot / spindle sheath, 3) between pivot / spindle sheath and sprocket on wheel housing, 4) between wheel and wheel housing and 5) between brake shaft and wheel housing. The spindle solution requires a seal 1) between equipment and flange, 2) between flange and nuts, 3) between flange and wrench on wheel housing, 4) between wheel and wheel housing and 5) between brake shaft and wheel housing. The preferred choice of sealing material is NBR (NNF85), but for example silicone can also be used. The seals and their preferred designs will be described below.
In FIG. 25 is a sectional view of a joint between a spindle 5 and the upper end of the castor wheel housing with the sealing ring 6 between the spindle and the pivot / spindle sheath (shown in magnification in sections B and B ') and the pivot seal between the pivot / spindle sheath and the pivot rim of the wheel housing ( shown in magnification in section A). By making the distance between the surfaces and cavities in which the sealing rings are positioned appropriately smaller than the size of the sealing ring, it is achieved that it can be seen that the seals are under constant and controlled pressure (shown by wide arrows in A 'and B') . In this way, the desired compression and thus the desired sealing effect is obtained. The exterior surface is designed for hygiene / easy cleaning to best protect against the possibility of bacterial build-up in the sealing structure.
DK 2018 70140 A1
FIG. 26 shows a sealing ring 41 which is used when the structure is to be used without brake arm. This seal thus seals between the castor wheel housing 28 and an inserted plug 42.
When using the brake lever, it must be sealed as shown in detail D of FIG. 27. Here is also provided the seal 9 (see also section H) between the flange 10 and the equipment to be made mobile and the pivot scraper 11 (see also section G).
The seal between the wheel 18 and the wheel housing 28 is shown in FIG. 28 and secured as previously mentioned by means of the coating or tire 43 formed in one piece with a tongue, which is here designated by the reference numeral 44. This coating may also be of solid NBR, but in the preferred embodiment is a blue anti-tear polyurethane. The coating or tread 43 can also be made of polyurethane with wire (electric conductive) or thermoplastic rubber. Common to the types is that they can provide the necessary sealing effect while the friction between the tongue 44 and the wheel housing 28 does not become too great.
The detail E of FIG. 28 shows the design of the transition between the wheel rim 45 and the hub cap 46 which holds a spacer 47 in place. The wheel rim 45 is preferably made of polyamide (PA6) but can, for example, also be made of stainless steel 304 or electrically conductive polyamide or polypropylene. The choice of electrically conductive materials is made if wiring is desired to avoid static electricity.
As can be seen from the above, it is advantageous for all seals to be made specifically for this application. This provides the opportunity to get completely smooth surfaces that are easy to wash and inspect and minimize the risk of dirt accumulation.
DK 2018 70140 A1
It is to be understood that the invention herein is designed and described in accordance with the fact that it will normally be used as a standard element which can be immediately mounted on various types of equipment.
However, it is to be understood that the invention may also be incorporated with the equipment in a manner that avoids transition elements without departing from the scope of the invention.
It is also to be understood, it is not necessary that the wheel housing contains functionalities which are not to be used in some cases, but for practical and aesthetic reasons it may be appropriate to use the same housing and wheels for all castor wheel designs according to the invention.
