A hollow wheel assembly of a luggage includes a wheel mount, two wheel members, and a hollow shaft. The wheel mount has a shaft sleeve, in which the hollow shaft is received. The wheel members are connected to opposite ends of the hollow shaft for free rotation. The hollow shaft has a vision passage, and the wheel members have a plurality of vision bores, whereby one may see through the wheel members via the vision bores and the vision passages when the wheel members are rotating.

A releasable wheel assembly is presented. The releasable wheel assembly includes a base plate and a bracket coupled to the base plate. The bracket includes multiple bosses and each boss includes a hole. An axle passing through the hole of each boss. The axle includes a circumferential groove adjacent to each end of the axle. Additionally, a brace is coupled to the base plate and the axle.

Protective systems (1000) for a luggage piece (100) may include a deformable body (1002) and a cover (1004). The cover (1004) may be configured to overlie and to be coupled with the deformable body (1002). The cover (1004) may be more rigid than the deformable body (1002). The deformable body (1002) may include an interior shape (1034) at least partially complementary to a recess (1003) formed in an exterior surface (101) of the luggage piece (100). The deformable body (1002) may be joined to the luggage piece (100) when positioned at least partially in the recess (1003). External impacts exerted on the cover (1004) may be transmitted across the cover (1004) such that the forces associated with such external impacts may be exerted on the deformable body (1002) across a larger surface area than a surface area of the cover (1004) receiving the external impacts and may be at least partially absorbed by the deformable body (1002).

A wheel assembly includes a first body having a first end portion and a second end portion; a second body having a third end portion and a fourth end portion, the third end portion of the second body rotatably coupled to the second end portion of the first body via a first pivot pin; a wheel rotatably coupled to the second body via a second pivot pin; a rod having a fifth end portion and a sixth end portion, the fifth end portion coupled with the first body via a third pivot pin; a first coiled spring having a first end contacting the first body and a second end contacting the third end portion; and a second coiled spring having a third end, the rod inserted into the second coiled spring via the third end, and a fourth end contacting the fourth end portion.

A trolley case capable of displaying weight in a static state allows the bracket fixing shaft not to offset in a radial direction through the configurations of a directional bearing and shaft liner, and allows a weighing transducer to sense the weight of a case body accurately by installing the weighing transducer on the directional bearing and fixing the weighing transducer to the upper end face of the bracket fixing shaft, thereby not causing a weight displaying value to change, realizing a static display, and thus giving users the convenience of use.

A caster wheel assembly includes a wheel mounted for rotation about a horizontal axis within a wheel carriage such that the wheel rotates about the horizontal axis with respect to the wheel carriage. The wheel carriage is positioned within a retention ring such that the wheel carriage can rotate about the vertical axis with respect to the retention ring. The wheel carriage also has an opening on the bottom surface such that the wheel can make contact with the ground. The horizontal axis about which the wheel rotates is offset from the vertical axis about which the wheel carriage rotates. An outer carriage may be included such that the outer carriage is positioned within the retention ring and the wheel carriage is positioned within the outer carriage. The outer carriage would be able to rotate about the vertical axis with respect to both the retention ring and the wheel carriage.

A two-wheel caster includes a rotation shaft component, an arm member provided with a hollow, an axle attached to the arm member, a left wheel and a right wheel attached to the axle. The arm member includes an axle supporting member which is stored in the hollow so as to be movable up and down, and which supports the axle, a compression coil spring which is stored in the hollow, and which pushes the axle supporting member, and a main rib surrounding the hollow. The axle supporting member includes an axle receiving portion which is formed in a tadpole-like shape, corresponds to a head of such a shape, and is provided with a shaft hole through which the axle is inserted, and a cantilever spring portion which corresponds to a tail of the tadpole-like shape, and which is continuous to the main rib.

A multi-wheel system that minimizes wheel interactions with discontinuous and uneven surfaces. The multi-wheel system comprises wheels of varying diameters connecting to a rotating arm configured to raise and lower the wheels in response to obstacles along the rolling surface.

A swivel castor, having a housing which can be pivoted into a rolling direction via pivot means and two wheels rotatably mounted on the housing on a horizontal wheel axle, wherein the pivot means are arranged in front of the wheel axle, contrary to the rolling direction, and having a braking device designed to be adjustable between a braking position, in which the braking device exerts a braking force on at least one wheel, and a free-rolling position, in which the braking device releases the wheels. A brake pedal generating the braking force is pivotably mounted on the housing via a pedal axle, which extends parallel to the wheel axle and arranged between the wheels, and, in the braking position, at least one brake shoe arranged on the brake pedal exerts a braking force parallel to the wheel axle directly on one side of at least one wheel.

A castor includes a wheel support and at least one roller mounted on the wheel support. The at least one roller has a peripheral portion provided with a hollow air chamber which is provided with a plurality of hollow air columns. One of the hollow air columns is provided with an air inlet. The at least one roller is made of soft material that is made by a blow molding operation. The soft material is initially made into a tubular blank by a blow molding machine. A gas is then filled into the soft material to blow and shape the soft material in a die at a high temperature to form the at least one roller. The at least one roller is then stripped from the die.
