With the continuous development of modern technology, the universal wheel has become an indispensable part of many devices. In daily working life, the universal wheel often encountered not steering, difficult to move and other problems, encountered these problems, we can try to solve them themselves.
A universal wheel usually consists of an axle, a core, a tire and a bracket. The first thing to do when repairing a universal wheel is to check the surface of the wheel for wear. “Wear spots” on the surface of the wheel can indicate the buildup of foreign matter, such as threads, wires, and other debris that may have become entangled in the wheel. At this point it is necessary to remove the bolts and nuts from the wheel, clean out the debris, and inspect the wheel bearings for damage. If the parts are not damaged, they can be reassembled and continue to be used. If you often encounter the situation that the universal wheel is entangled by debris, it is recommended to install the anti-entanglement sleeve to prevent it.
Secondly, loose casters or jammed wheels can also lead to “flat spots”. During a proper maintenance check, special attention should be paid to the tightness of the bolts and the amount of grease used. Replacing broken casters can enhance the tumbling function and rotational flexibility of the equipment. If there is a problem with the wheel axle or core, you will need to use a wrench or other tool to remove the axle or core and install a new one back in. Make sure all bolts and fasteners are properly installed and tightened.
Thirdly, rubber wheels that are severely damaged or become slack may cause unstable rolling, air leakage, abnormal loads and damage to the base plate. Timely replacement of damaged tires and bearings can reduce the cost loss due to caster damage caused by the strike.
After checking and repairing the wheels, make sure the bolts and nuts are not tightened, and try your best to use anti-loosening washers or anti-loosening nuts on all the bolts. If the bolt is loose, tighten it immediately. If the wheel mounted inside the bracket is loose, the wheel will be damaged or unable to rotate.
If you want to say goodbye to the trouble of maintenance, a brand of universal wheel with outstanding quality may be your best choice.
