Moreover, the installation is quick and accurate.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the mounting member 10 is not limited in structure, and may be a single structural member provided with the mounting hole 11, for example, a hole member. In use, the mounting member 10 may be secured to the equipment to which the caster is to be mounted. The mounting part 10 may also be the body of the device to which the castor is to be mounted, i.e. the mounting hole 11 and the resilient member 12 are moulded directly onto the body of the device, for example onto the base of a dehumidifier.

In the disclosed embodiment, the elastic member 12 is formed with a deformable insertion channel, which has a size smaller than that of the mounting rod 21 when the mounting rod 21 is not inserted, so as to ensure that the resilient force of the elastic member 12 presses and catches the mounting rod 21 when the mounting rod 21 is inserted. Alternatively, the size of the throat portion 120 of the elastic member 12 is smaller than the size of the notch portion 210 of the mounting rod 21. Ensuring that the throat 120 snaps into the notch 210. The elastic member 12 is not limited in structural form as long as the aforementioned deformable insertion passage can be formed such that the throat portion 120 is caught in the notch portion 210.

In some embodiments, the elastic component 12 includes a plurality of elastic pieces 121, and the plurality of elastic pieces 121 are disposed on an inner wall of the mounting hole 11 to form the elastic component 12. Simple structure and high effect. The number of the elastic pieces 121 is not limited, and may be two or more, and is determined according to actual conditions.

In some embodiments, the number of the elastic pieces 121 is 3.

In some embodiments, the plurality of elastic pieces 121 are uniformly disposed on the inner wall of the mounting hole 11. The clamping force is uniform, and the stable balance of the caster 20 is ensured.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 5 and 7, the resilient member 121 includes a first resilient member section 1211 and a second resilient member section 1212, the first resilient member section 1211 and the second resilient member section 1212 form a predetermined included angle α to form a folded resilient member having a folded angle, the resilient members having the folded angle are disposed opposite to each other, and the relative disposition is not limited as long as the resilient member 12 can form the necking portion 120.

Included angle α is optionally set to 110-160 °, included angle α is optionally set to 120-150 °, included angle α is optionally set to 130 °, included angle α is optionally set to 145 °.

In some embodiments, the plurality of the folded spring pieces 121 are disposed on the inner wall of the mounting hole 11 in a manner that the convex sides of the folds of the folded spring pieces 121 are opposite to each other, so as to form an elastic assembly. The outward convex side of the folding angle elastic sheets 121 is provided with a necking part 120 for forming the elastic component 12, and the inserting passage formed by the elastic component 12 is in a hyperbolic shape. The elastic assembly of the embodiment is simple to install and easy to disassemble, and the elastic assembly can be disassembled only by pulling the caster with the force opposite to the installation direction.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, two ends of the elastic sheet 121 may be disposed on the inner wall of the mounting hole 11 (for example, the aforementioned bevel elastic sheet), or only one end of the elastic sheet may be disposed on the inner wall of the mounting hole 11.

The second end of the elastic sheet 121 can be effectively ensured to be suspended. For another example, the first ends of the elastic pieces 121 are disposed on the inner wall of the mounting hole 11 in such a manner that the second ends of the elastic pieces 121 tend to converge toward the axis of the mounting hole 11. Of course, the way of suspending the second end of the elastic sheet 121 is not limited to this, and may be set according to actual situations.

Optionally, the second end of the elastic sheet 121 is movably disposed on the inner wall of the mounting hole 11, that is, when the mounting rod 21 of the caster 20 is mounted, the elastic sheet is inserted into the mounting rod 21 to deform, the second end can slide along the inner wall of the mounting hole 11, so as to enhance the stability of the elastic sheet, and when the elastic sheet 121 deforms, the deformation is stable and the torsion is not generated. Optionally, a convex portion is disposed on the second end of the elastic sheet 121, a groove is disposed on the inner wall of the mounting hole 11, and the convex portion of the second end of the elastic sheet 121 is embedded into the groove of the mounting hole 11, so that the second end of the elastic sheet 121 is movably disposed on the inner wall of the mounting hole 11.
